BBC Music's Christian Hopwood stated that "You Make Me Wanna " had "universal appeal". Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Vocally strumming his notes as gently and powerfully as the guitar player who accompanies him, Usher makes no enemies by professing an attraction to a friend while being involved with another. The track promises to be a hit among all generations and genders as his loyal young female fan base will eagerly jump aboard. Older women will easily fall prey to the very thought of his musings, while men now have an interesting avenue to express similar feelings." Robert Christgau noted "You Make Me Wanna " as one of the best tracks from My Way. Entertainment Weekly Whitney Pastorek gave it an A− rating, and complimented its minimal production. The magazine's Alan Jones praised it as "a superbly sublime and soulful semi acoustic debut which recalls similarly styled singles from Tony Rich and Babyface. It actually has a very complex vocal, with Usher singing in and around the gaps on his own chorus. A very promising cuitain raiser." According to Ann Powers of The New York Times, the song "put the spice back in the word 'relationship'." David Fricke from Rolling Stone said it is one thing: "tiptoe love funk with a spare, gangsta air and Usher doing overdubbed ensemble singing like a one man Blackstreet." When reviewing My Way, Ian Hyland from Sunday Mirror stated that, "Tracks like 'You Make Me Wanna ', 'Nice And Slow' and 'Slow Jam' should put you in the mood".
