Background
Banton called the album "an ode to those who acknowledge the struggles and challenges that surmount. And others who will, your eyes are not deceiving you nor are your ears, you were born for greatness. I embrace you with love melodies and music."[2]
Critical reception
Edwin Houghton of Pitchfork wrote that while Born for Greatness "doesn't match the magic of his legacy", when Banton is "not exploring grandiose thematic statements, he sounds as confident and impressive as ever".[3] Vibe's Preezy Brown called "Nuff Love for You" and "We Find a Way" "solo standouts" and the album "a varied and enticing return".[4]
