'' Jay R '' earned positive reviews from music critics and listeners . However , it failed to make a huge impact to the public , as '' Gameface '' did . Also , it received very few nominations on awarding events and did not win any category it was included in . Resty Odon of '' Titik Pilipino '' gave it four and a half out of five stars , stating that " I ca n't find a bad word for Jay R ( the artist and '' the album '' ) because he and his album are good . " Although , he disliked the three overly slow Tagalog songs , saying " for those who dig them . I do n't . " On the 2006 MTV Pilipinas Music Awards , the album got two nominations — Favorite Male Video for " Ngayo ' y Narito " , which lost to Christian Bautista 's " Invincible " , and Favorite Hip-Hop/R & B Video for " Just the Way You Are " , which lost to " Stay Real " by Amber . On the Myx Music Awards 2006 , Jay R received three nominations , on which two were for the album ( Favorite Male and Favorite Urban for " Just the Way You Are " ) . He lost the Favorite Male Artist award to Erik Santos and the Favorite Urban Video to Gloc-9 's " Tula " . On the 2006 Awit Awards , the album failed to have nomination on any category . Although , he was nominated for Best Performance by a Duet on " Say That You Love Me " with Kyla , losing the award to Nina and Thor 's " The Closer I Get to You " . In 2007 , he was nominated for R&B Artist of the Year on the Philippine Hip-Hop Awards , but was beaten by Nina on having the title
