The album received a mixed reception by music critics, many of whom praised Ginuwine's vocal performances and the album's trend-detaching nature but found its lyrics unsuitable and cliché-addled. Upon its release, Elgin debuted at number 30 on the US Billboard 200, and at number seven on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart with first week sales of 19,100 copies. The album produced three singles, including lead single "What Could Have Been" as well as "Heaven" and "Body."
