"Outside of the immediately catchy arrangements, with soulful jazz inflections and subtle reggae fusions, Jorja Smith's shining personality is the core strength of this thoroughly enjoyable record".

"Admittedly, these are songs that didn't make the cut for Smith's next full-length album, due out in 2022. Still, Digging's angsty 80s pop rock energy and Bussdown's (featuring rapper Shaybo) subtle dancehall beat are nice enough to rewind, proving that this is more than just an ephemeral work".

"den 23-årige britiske soulsangerinde formår virkelig at strikke længselsfulde, ærlige og stærke tracks sammen, som stikker dybere end meget af det musik, der florerer i æteren lige nu ... Misforstå mig ikke, det er stadig vældig flot, Smith og Co. gør det fremragende, men jeg er ikke helt lige så tryllebundet som i starten. Faktisk bliver øjnene lidt tunge ... Det starter så stærkt, at det næsten ville være umuligt at holde den kørende ... Jorja Smith imponerer til at starte med på udmærket og forførende toer".

"Be Right Back's most appealing quality remains Smith's voice, which stretches at will as she taps into various emotional states. She sings with insistence against echoing shouts on the moody "Digging" and flies up to a heady falsetto on "Weekend," where her background vocals dovetail in operatic melodies. Be Right Back can at times feel like a minor expansion on Lost & Found's melancholy moments, but Smith's emotional acuity and resolute confidence prove that she's still just getting started".
