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."[1]
Chart performance
In the United States, Raydiation entered the Billboard 200 at number 48, selling 21,517 copies in its first week of release.[2] In addition, it peaked at number 13 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.[3] Billboard ranked the album 85th on its Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums year end listing.[4]
