Kelly, Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez and Rhett Lawrence.[2] "Make It Right" was not included on any of Stansfield's albums.[7] Critical receptionLarry Flick from Billboard described the song as a "Stansfield jam that is stronger than anything she has offered in a long while." He noted that she "excels amid a flurry of jack/funk beats and whispery backing vocals. Her fluid vocal tones flow freely over a hummable melody."[8] Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report commented, "School's almost in session, and it coincides with release of the sequel to the Beverly Hills 90210 Soundtrack: Volume 2 The College Years. Lisa Stansfield is a brilliant choice to pair with this song. R. Kelly's re-mix is the one for Top 40."[9] Track listings
