Critical reception
Andy Kellman, writing for Allmusic, found that "as with the three albums that preceded it, Promise to Love consists almost entirely of smooth and quiet ballads that regard long-term devotion and self-improvement. [Kem] remains an antidote to prevailing contemporary R&B sounds. When he sings of going downtown, he means geographically, not anatomically – and guest Snoop Dogg, on his best behavior, displays restraint. [...] Kem might do one thing, but he does that one thing very well. Four- and five-year waits aside, the man knows how to please his listeners."
