    10. As the title of the album says, this album is perfect. As an old New Kids On The Block fan, I'm very pleased that they're back for good (no pun intended), and that The Block wasn't just a one and done thing. This album has a lot of good tracks, but my favourite is We Own Tonight. And it's not a 90s remix, no, it sounds so current, that some of my 11 year old pupils ask me for the10.

    This is great album from NKOTB. "10" feels unequivocally and undeniably "new". Their music so different from before. If you think their song like 90's song then you are wrong! This album absolutely perfect. I love all the song on 10. In this album, Jonathan Knight, one of the member, answer the critics that he really can sing. Great Job Man!!

    Thought this album is more targeted at the longtime fans than the current mainstream market, these songs contain the best sounds that the New Kids ever achieved.

    10, when it’s all said and done, lacks exceptionalness, polish, and memorableness.

    An effort largely filled with breathy, elevator-ready ballads, and jazzy uptempo ditties that never quite reach their potential. [12 Apr 2013, p.72]

    The result is a muddle of mid-2000s electro (such as Crash, which is splashed with RedOne-style Auto-Tune), bubblegum-urban modelled on their early hits (Now or Never) and conveyor-belt ballads.
