Stephen Thomas Erlewine at Allmusic called the group's vocals on the album "impressive." Erlewine also gave note to the production, which he referred to as "seamless without being overly slick. The only problem with Silk, then, is the wildly uneven material."[4] The ballad "How Could You Say You Love Me," and third single "Don't Rush" were praised by Upscale magazine.[5]

Chart performance

Silk peaked at forty-six on the US Billboard 200.[6]
