==Music and lyrics==
At Cross Rhythms, Tim Holden told that the release has "a wonderful mix of musical styles that blend seamlessly together to produce some truly excellent pop music."〔 Grace S. Aspinwall of ''CCM Magazine'' wrote that the album contains "The slick vocals from Tauren Wells and the solid electronica-pop songs are fun and upbeat."〔 At Indie Vision Music, Jonathan Andre highlighted that "From the first radio single to the last epic album finisher, ''Royal Tailor'' is an album that'll hopefully reach a wide audience with its unique and musically diverse tracks providing us with themes of hope and identity."〔 Lydia Akinola at The Christian Manifesto stated that the band is not your typical boy band rather they "are more than a copycat version of 'this artist' or a blatant rip-off of 'that band': these boys actually can sing, and this is the album where they prove it." At Jesus Freak Hideout, Alex Caldwell noted that the band "cuts a funky, dancy path along some serious subject fault lines."〔 Roger Gewicks of Jesus Freak Hideout stated that "Conceptually, not much has changed for Royal Tailor since ''Black & White'', but rather they've solidified their sound", and wrote that "While ''Black & White'' seemed a little disjointed with competing genres between individual songs, this effort is a bit more unified, majoring on a slick pop vibe with electric guitars and synths still distinguishable from each other."〔 Also, Gelwicks stated that "Tauren Wells' vocals are still as tight as ever, reaching the high notes with a humble reserve that uncannily fit the band's pop approach."〔 At Christian Music Zine, Joshua Andre wrote that "Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Royal Tailor has defied the 'sophomore slump' and proven to everyone that their musical and songwriting craft is evolving rather quickly."〔 Laura Chambers of Christian Music Review told that if you are seeking out the "meaning of life and the way to live" that the release was "a mixed bag of messages that all point to who and what we were made to be and do."〔 At The Phantom Tollbooth, Josh Marihugh wrote that the music comes "with hooks designed to pack the dance floor."〔
In terms of lyrics, Aspinwall told that "While the lyrical landscape didn't stray far from their previous album, the sonic maturity is clear and indicative of a very promising future."〔 Jonathan Andre wrote that the group "have set out to give us an album of 11 songs that provides us with encouragement, God-breathed lyrics of purpose, identity and clarity, as well as music fun to dance to as the album hopefully reaches a wide audience in terms of age bracket and musical tastes!"〔 However, Akinola stated that "Lyrically, they may not impress any poet, but clichés aside, the message is loud and clear", but noted that "What they lack in finesse, they more than make up in conviction."〔 Also, Gelwicks told that the album has "Too-basic lyrics are still a key trouble that burdens Royal Tailor's creative direction", but "the band has locked onto a reliable sound that they can sell convincingly."〔 Joshua Andre wrote that "Though on the surface they seem like another pop/rock boy band, while they do have clichéd lyrics sometimes, at most times lead singer Tauren, guitarist DJ, bass guitarist Blake and drummer Jarrod highlight their songwriting prowess and their ability to entertain while still delivering the ever true message of God."〔 At Louder Than the Music, Richard Smith said the album was "packed full of positive lyrics that point to Jesus."〔 Lastly, Smith noted how "The lyrics are top form, well constructed, fun and strong with Christian elements and themes flowing throughout."〔
