Critical reception edit
AllMusic editor John Bush wrote, "Reel 2 Real's sophomore album is a bit less focused on hit singles, especially so considering it doesn't contain the megahit "I Like to Move It". Though there are plenty of charting singles included -- the title track "Mueve la Cadera (Move Your Body)", "Jazz It Up", -- Morillo attempts to diversify, including another update of the Gamble-Huff chestnut "Now That We Found Love" and the ballad "Love Hurts." He's only occasionally successful, though, making one wish he'd stick to hit singles."
Track listing edit
All tracks are produced by Erick Morillo with co-producers Laron Cue, Jose Nunez, Peter Tulloch, and Armand Van Helden, featuring vocals by Althea McQueen and Mark Quashie.
