    The Pussycats' debut from 2005 was that kind of disc, and though this follow-up tries darn hard to follow that formula, it comes up just short.
  2. The New York Times
    70
    Ms. Scherzinger’s small, flexible voice thrives in the programmed, computer-tuned R&B tracks.
  3. Billboard
    70
    The Dolls' bark is as big as their bite.
  4. Rolling Stone

    With 15 cuts in all, the album sounds like the Dolls just threw everything they had against the charts to see if anything would stick.
  5. AllMusic
    40
    Digging out this handful of songs from the 16-track proper album-- inflated to as much as 24 tracks with the bonus disc added in--is flat-out exhausting, necessitating trawling through too many dull beats, breathy bleats, a phoned-in Snoop Dogg cameo and Missy Elliot name-dropping Katy Perry.
  6. Uncut
    40
    Like most big pop groups, they're great at singles--Rodney Jerkins' 'When I Grow Up' fashionably disses fame-- but fail when it comes to albums. [Dec 2008, p.115]

    As it turns out, Scherzinger’s not interesting enough on her own, so she’s padding out her shtick with four glorified backup singers in tow.

    I really have no idea why critics hate this album and the girls too. Sure, Nicole sings on almost every track and we don't hear the I really have no idea why critics hate this album and the girls too. Sure, Nicole sings on almost every track and we don't hear the other girls but it's still a pretty good album with solid tracks and something for everybody. I don't know why critics miss that point. Not a bad album, good, but not great.… Expand
