A Love Letter to You 4 received mixed reviews from music critics. AllMusic said of the mixtape, "Enthusiasts of Trippie Redd's brand of quasi-visceral heartbroken emo rap will have plenty to enjoy, but discerning listeners might have to pick a few favorite songs and discard the rest." HipHopDX wrote, "However chaotic a break-up might feel, lacks the cohesion necessary to thoughtfully express some of complexities of love and relationships," adding that the mixtape "lacks a guiding theme" and that Trippie Redd comes across as "stale and guarded". Ryan Feyre, writing for RapReviews, said, "Despite its unevenness, A Love Letter to You 4 has something for everyone. And for those who’ve been there since the beginning, you should expect nothing less from ".
