Initial reviews for W have been mixed. The Washington Post's Alison Stewart offered a negative view on the project, writing that Wanessa "began a bad year with a bad record." In his written evaluation to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Piet Levy wrote that Campbell is "less an anxious child than an adult" in this new project, although when Wanessa flat come-ons are juxtaposed with experienced R&B of course as an interpreter, he still has a lot of growing to do.[26] Pop portal commenter found the genres of the album strange according stating that "Wanessa had outdone himself this time."[27]
already critical Manoel Grachi found the excellent album of others who did wanessa saying: "You can see she grew a lot in this last record, although the songs are alternative versions to liguagem her, she demonstrated that knows how to do it well"He said the commentator, other critics of contemporary music found a poor mix of genres, saying Wanessa not used the Latin genres.[28][29]
