Critical reception Allmusic editor Andy Kellman found that ''Raydiation'' "isn't any less derivative than '' Everything You Want'' and ''This Ain't a Game''. He's still putting on airs, rarely deviating from copping his moves off R. Kelly and Usher. There's really nothing worth singling out ..If Ray J plans on maintaining his every-four-years release schedule, he might as well spend less time soaking up his influences and more time developing some individuality."
