Critical reception
AllMusic editor John Bush found that while "there's no breakout hit the quality of "Too Close," Next's sophomore album Welcome II Nextasy is smoother and features a better overall production than their debut. The trio's version of hip-hop-soul is just as explicit as before; from "Cybersex" to "Let's Make a Movie" to "Banned from TV," Next proves themselves the Barry White of the '90s." Billboard remarked that "working again with Naughty By Nature's KayGee and others, Next goes for more originality vs. samples and tackles subjects both provocative and real [...] Those who like their R&B/hip-hop naughty – but still nice – won't be disappointed."
