Critical reception
Alex Henderson from Allmusic rated the album three out of five stars and called My Thoughts "a competent, if uneven, effort," with much of the material being "routine urban contemporary fare." He found that "My Thoughts isn't mind-blowing, but it's decent more often than not and lets us know that Avant has potential."
