Critical reception

Robert Copsey from Digital Spy gave a very positive review song:

Order makes it very clear at number three that success is not handed to him on the platinum meal set marked 'Doulton'. Au contraire, it was an exhausting journey of "believing and praying" in a dream that, for the time being, "is not going anywhere" - and with his ear-rhymes tucked in a stadium-sized choir from US newbie Eric Turner, we will all hear about that whether we want it or not. Oh Tinie, we will never doubt your hard work, play hard mentally again. .
