Allmusic editor John Bush found that "it's not really a creative reawakening since he hasn't changed anything about his game. In the end, Rebirth is really just another Keith Sweat album, and it's a tribute to one of the leading soul men of the '80s and '90s that he can continue making records as smooth and as vigorous as this one 15 years down the road [...] Sweat is still in great voice, and it's his personality that carries Rebirth, even when it sounds similar to his work in the past."[1] Vibe' Jason King feöt that Rebirth "probably won’t win Sweat any new fans, but he certainly won’t lose any. Despite a reliance on talk boxes and synth strings, and predictable references to two-ways and the number 69, the album has few missteps."[2]
