| AllMusic |    [2] |
AllMusic editor Al Campbell rated the album two and a half stars out of five. He found that Genuine "combines [Orrico's] positive Christian convictions with musical inspiration, embracing the pop/urban influence represented by Christina Aguilera and Lauryn Hill. Orrico deals with tricky lyrical issues (insecurity, peer pressure, anorexia) while musically sustaining mainstream crossover appeal."[2] Billboard wrote that Genuine "is a muscular sound that offers lots to get listeners' attention but never obscures the charm of Orrico's voice [...] All in all, this is an impressive debut from a young artist whose talent is sure to extend beyond the current teen-act boom."[3]
Chart performance
Genuine debuted and peaked at number number 103 on the US Billboard 200, setting a record in first-week sales for a Christian female debut, selling 13,000 copies.[4] It also reached number six on the Top Christian Albums.[5] By March 2001, Genuine sold more than 200,000 units in its first six months of release.[1]
