    At least a third of the album's contents would have to be part of any representative introduction to Hamilton. In fact, this puts a cap on a three-album run as remarkable as any other in 2000s R&B.
  2. Vibe
    80
    The joyful arrangement in The Point of It All enhances Hamilton's storytelling abilities, serving as a lovely mixer to his lyrical depth and sensual, rich voice.
  3. Rolling Stone

    It's not exactly an exciting record, but it is comforting: a modest sound for chastened times.

    I think that Mr. Hamilton's versatility is extraordinary! The "Point of It All" is that his growth as an artist should be recognized.
