Critical reception[edit]
Melody Charles from SoulTracks "blessed with some of the most powerful of pipes in her generation, Kelly Price is a singer and songwriter who has combined equal measure of gospel fervor and relatable authenticity since her 1998 debut. No matter what medium she's delivering in live or Memorex the clarity and conviction poured into Kelly's performances are enough to make the listener want to run down an aisle ("He Proposed"), shout His praises ("This Is Who I Am") or throw a temper tantrum ("Tired") all at the same time, which is why Sing Pray Love, Vol. 1: Sing is such an appropriate title for her seventh studio release."[7]

The album debuted at number 64 on the US Billboard 200 chart, number 6 on the Billboard R&B Albums, number 12 on the US Independent Albums chart and number 10 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart on June 21, 2014.[8][9][10][11]
