Allmusic editor Ed Hogan wrote that most of the material on Private Party falls "in the 'let's shower together' category, though it must be pointed out that the content never goes into the overly graphic area of a lot of modern R&B [...] Freddie Jackson's romantic balladeering is, for the most part, not the kind of material you would find at the top of the charts these days. And that's a shame."[1]
