Reception

James E. Perone in The Album: A Guide to Pop Music's Most Provocative, Influential, and Important Creations stated, "The Kravitz and Craig Ross collaboration 'Is There Any Love in Your Heart' re-creates the style of late 1960s' and early 1970s hard rock."[2] Alan Sculley of The Crisis noted, "There is one particularly acidic track directed to gold diggers attracted by his celebrity status, "Is There Any Love in Your Heart."[3]
