AllMusic	^[2]

AllMusic editor Andy Kellman found that "due to a number of factors, Ridin' Solo is the least significant volume of Sweat's discography [...] Sweat can't be knocked for riding the Auto-Tune gravy train, not when his use of vocal effects can be traced back 20-plus years. Then again, Ridin' Solo, the singer's tenth proper studio album, is slathered in it. Part of that is out of necessity; Sweat's voice, once a smooth whine, often hits a grainy strain, and it's also cloaked by a number of background vocalists who occasionally step in front to perform the hooks. While he is nearing his 50th birthday, Sweat sings lyrics that are less mature than the ones he recorded half his life ago, with references to Patrón, woman-as-vehicle metaphors, and couplets".^[2]
