Clash | 8/10[13] |
Clash's Robin Murray wrote that the "whole project is cohesive" and that "each song speaks to the next" while describing the project as an "alluring document of salacious R&B titillation". Murray concluded that "the album closes on an oddly sombre note" and that PartyNextDoor 4 "taps into his core values".[13]
