AllMusic editor William Cooper called Do You Wanna Ride? a "lackluster debut release." He found that "there's not much to recommend [on] the album. The main problem with Do You Wanna Ride? is more work was put into the production than into the songwriting. The employment of several producers for various songs doesn't mask Adina Howard's inability to move beyond basic R&B bump-and-grind clichés [...] and her limited vocal range doesn't allow her to soar above the mediocre material."[3]
