Dated songs like "So Excited" and "Do It 2 Me" end up sounding like they're, well, 20 years old.- E! Online

Therapy's diagnosis ultimately is not positive, because the disc's split-personality disorder results in too much incoherence.- E! Online

There's nothing as instantly likable as "Frontin'," and even with the presence of some bigwig collaborators the disc sounds strangely inspiration-free.- E! Online

Weighed down with bland lyrics and blander arrangements, it meanders off into chick-rock clichés and lazy easy-listening melodies.- E! Online

Employing actress Brittany Murphy on the ridiculous "Faster Kill Pussycat" hardly helps, as does reducing Pharrell Williams' talent with a caricature of a tune like "Sex 'N' Money."- E! Online

- Critic Score
The duo's seventh album sees an invasion of unnecessary guest stars, such as Lloyd Banks and Yayo, and a disappointing lyrical turn that celebrates monotonous Detroit staples like guns, cash and bumps.- E! Online

Despite a few promising creative bursts ("Love," "Black Sweat"), it's another case of dashed expectations, as the disc dissolves into a bloodless puddle of smooth-jazz grooves and lyrics that wither at the hands of the singer's recent religious ideals.- E! Online

The end result of all this sermonizing will likely inspire you not to renounce sin and its sordid ways, but feel the itch to grab some hooch and a few George Jones albums and have a rip-roaring time.- E! Online

A frustratingly half-assed album, full of great ideas executed in the poorest way possible.- E! Online

It's a well-produced disc, but the cavalcade of stars and cartoonish beats make the songs sound more dated than the originals.- E! Online

With nothing to react against and few new ideas to air, P.O.D. mostly operates in default mode, relying on hitmaker-for-hire Glen Ballard to inject the music with new life. Sadly, he doesn't.- E! Online
