Critical reception

Шаблон:Album ratings A Muse in Her Feelings was met with generally favorable reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 78, based on five reviews.

Steven Loftin of The Line of Best Fit wrote, "From the harp-tinged starter of "No Good", far across the twinkling lights, broken hearts and epiphany, to thunderous claps of "...Again" A Muse in Her Feelings holds itself aloft, floating dreamily on a sea of feeling". Kyle Mullin of Exclaim! said, "For now, this new album stands as a kinetic encapsulation of heartache, and a strong showcase — for not only this exciting Toronto duo, but also many of their local powerhouse peers like Reyez, May and PARTYNEXTDOOR". Kyann-Sian Williams of NME praised the album saying that dvsn "have delivered a modern R&B record well worth celebrating; the duo have poured out their feelings and opened up an emotional conversation with the listener. Star-studded, shimmering, danceable and intimate, A Muse In Her Feelings is R&B in its purest form". Rawiya Kameir of Pitchfork stated, "The album's most interesting stretch is a risky three-track run that begins with the playful outro of "Outlandish", builds into the Baltimore club-referencing "Keep It Going" and crests with the lusty "'Flawless' Do It Well, Pt. 3", featuring Summer Walker in the role of an unflappable stripper. ... Even though there are songs with infinite replay value, the album doesn't quite have the depth, either". David Weaver of CLASH said, "With their modest personas and its subtle production, it could be easy to disregard dvsn's third record as more of the same, but repeat listens reveal a warm and unpretentious record, from an act confidently starting to evolve".
