Critical response

Exclusive received "generally favorable reviews" from critics. Bill Lamb of About.com give the album four out of five stars, characterized the album as "an admirably clean record that is unlikely to raise any fears from parents concerned about content. However, he does not sacrifice anything in utilizing the talents of a wide range of today's top R&B producers and songwriters. Chris Brown's music makes it abundantly clear that explicit sexual and drug content is not a requirement for a hit record". He also said "fans of Beyoncé’s smash B'Day may recognize some sounds here. The Stargate-produced "With You" borrows the instrumental context of "Irreplaceable" and the beat structure of "I'll Call Ya" will bring immediate comparisons to "Get Me Bodied". However, both are infused enough with Chris Brown's unique performing persona that he manages to make both songs his own".^[5] Screenshot of About. ... Beyoncé in 2004 with her five Grammys. ...
