Andrew Sacher of BrooklynVegan praised the artists' styles, stating: "Their styles are noticeably different but they complement each other surprisingly well, and they work perfectly with the album's sharp production", concluding with "If these guys aren't already on your radar, Bloodas is proof that you should change that, stat."[4] Scott Glaysher of HipHopDX wrote about the mixtape's thematic direction: "There isn't an overarching concept they're reaching for within these dozen cuts — it's simply a collection of quick and dirty gangster jams aimed to please their core audiences", concluding with "Simply put, the joint project doesn't have enough shining moments to warrant a follow-up." Evan Rytlewski of Pitchfork wrote that "Bloodas is the work of two elites who admire each other's craft, but mostly who just get a kick out of each other’s company."
