All About You was met with a generally mixed reviews from music critics. Andy Kellman of Allmusic gave the album two in a half stars out of five, saying "Like his self-titled debut, which coasted to the Top Ten of the Billboard 200, Jeremih’s All About You is produced by partner Mick Schultz. Schultz’s beats on Jeremih amalgamated the styles of numerous contemporaries, and there is not much advancement on the follow-up, while the opening “All About You” is pretty close to a direct swipe of the-Dream's “Shawty Is a 10.” Jeremih often sounds drowsy, detached, and slumped in his VIP club booth, instead of on the prowl. Nothing approaches the bounding swagger of the debut’s “Break Up to Make Up,” and “Wanna Get Up,” the most overt dancefloor track, lacks the appeal of “Runway” and is ultimately forgettable. Worst of all is “Holding On,” an earnest, vaguely inspirational ballad song not built for Jeremih’s voice, which is best suited for lecherous material. The highlights, unsurprisingly, are the ballads for the bedroom, though some of the lyrics -- like “That’s right, we go from six to nine o’clock” -- might result in groans of an undesirable sort".

Commercial performance

The album sold 18,000 copies in its first week of sales.[4] On Billboard 200 albums, it debuted at number 27 while hitting number 8 in the Top R&B/Hip-Hop albums chart. As of June 25, 2015 the album has sold 186,000 copies in USA.[5]
