Critical reception

Pitchfork commented that "On “Drip Too Hard,” Lil Baby finds his melodic sweet spot on the hook only for Gunna to attempt to upstage him with smooth vocals that manage to keep his rapid delivery intact, all while tossing in a few boasts that are probably lies, but those are the best ones". UPROXX stated that the song is "built on their existing chemistry from years of association". Billboard named it fourth best song on the Drip Harder album, saying that "'Drip Too Hard' isn't Baby or Gunna's best song, but it does illustrate what makes their musical bromance special".
