Critical reception [ edit ]
Emma Cochrane from Smash Hits gave "She's Got That Vibe" three out of five, noting that Kelly "has wisely dropped the sexist lyrics of his latest release, "Summer Bunnies ", and instead gone for a swingbeaty kind of groove. However, it's just all a bit too smooth."[ 4]
The accompanying music video for "She's Got That Vibe" was directed by R. Kelly .[citation needed ]
