Reception
The album received mixed reviews from most critics. According to MTV News, "Empire State of Mind" lacked gravitas and the Washington Post thought it was "maybe-trying-too-hard." However, the latter also deemed "Billionaire" the best performance of the episode. Artists like Alicia Keys and Travie McCoy approved of their songs covered, while Spears was impressed with the cover of "Stronger" and Hayley Williams complimented Lea Michele's vocals on "The Only Exception" and Katy Perry praised Darren Criss' vocals for the a cappella version of "Teenage Dream" and Cee-Lo Green expressed flattery of Gwyneth Paltrow performing his song.
Chart Performance
The album charted at number five on the Billboard 200 and number two on the Billboard Soundtrack Charts.
