Análisis (en inglés) - AMG :
It was never much of a contest, but with his second solo album, Puff Daddy retains his crown as the biggest ego in hip-hop, if not popular music. It's an arrogance that asserts itself in the over 20 pictures included in the album booklet (all with different poses and outfits) and in the opening track -- "Forever (Intro)" -- that updates listeners with all the sordid details of Puffy's personal life. With all this ego strutting around, Puffy's sizable production talents have consistently been underrated. The truth is, he's been one of the best hip-hop producers of the '90s, creator of countless solid party jams, heavy on the groove and quite creative for their crossover potential. Though most of the tracks on Forever are co-productions with young lieutenants from his Bad Boy organization, Puffy's productions shine through. And he's downplayed sampling obvious pop hits for the main groove of his songs, perhaps a response to the constant criticism of hip-hop fans. Puffy's also a better rapper than he used to be, almost up to the level of the MC superstars guesting here. There are no tracks as propulsive as the hits from No Way Out ("It's All About the Benjamins," "Been Around the World"), and the ballad track "Best Friend," which samples Christopher Cross' "Sailing," is a lame rehash of the Biggie tribute "I'll Be Missing You." The final track (and first single), the Public Enemy-sampling "P.E. 2000," is an apt metaphor for Puff Daddy's second album; it's a solid production, not quite as exciting as it should be, informed by a mindset that uses hip-hop as a ladder to pop success and wealth. ~ Keith Farley, All Music GuideAnálisis (en inglés) - Yahoo!

Puff Daddy will continue to receive flack for having too much pop appeal, but Forever avoids the overt pop-styled offerings like "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down," "Been Around The World" and "I'll Be Missing You" that helped sell six million copies of his 1997 debut No Way Out. Forever seeks the same appeal via mellow ballads ("Satisfy You," "Best Friend") and primarily gritty, underground hip-hop grooves.Puffy's insistence on sampling old hits is angering, but it's hard to resist his use of Public Enemy's buzzing "Public Enemy No. 1," M.C. Lyte's knocking "Paper Thin" or Foxy's disco classic "Get Off." There's even the expected lineup of rap all-stars, from Jay-Z to R. Kelly. The real attention, however, is on Puff's new Bad Boy crew. Numerous collaborations from the late Notorious B.I.G., Lil' Kim, the Lox, and Mase helped Puffy's 1997 debut No Way Out signify Bad Boy's high ranking amongst hip-hop circles, but things have changed. B.I.G.'s death leaves only two collabs for the album and while Lil' Kim still makes three appearances, the absence of rhymes from The Lox and even Mase are missed. New inductees Mark Curry and Shyne try too hard to imitate Notorious B.I.G., though female MC G-Dep offers a refreshing, old-school style. Puff's definitely at his best on posse records that divert attention to collaborators. "P.E. 2000" and "Satisfy You," ironically the first releases, leave all the rapping up to Puff, emphasizing the gross simplicity of his rhymes. Análisis (en inglés) - :
