HipHopDX4.4/5

Riley Wallace of HipHopDX gave the album a 4.4 out of 5, saying: "Tana Talk 3 is dark, powerful, and beaming with a certain energy that’s hard to fake. This isn’t a swag rapper looking for clout, a future industry fawn fest, or knockoff Top 40. This is the diary of an MC who marched the frontline and made it out to tell the tale in vivid detail." Sy Shackleford of RapReviews similarly praised the album, calling it "a solid listen."

The album was included on Pitchfork's "Best Rap Albums of 2018" list.
