gave the mixtape 4 stars in a review, saying: "At just a shade over a half-hour long, Reese offers just enough ''Supa Savage'' to leave you itching for more. And considering all ten songs maintain that same bass-heavy southern tempo, the brevity prevents the mixtape's redundancy from becoming self-defeating. While ''Supa Savage'' may not be the most innovative or versatile mixtape, it does serve a purpose. Hip hop heads that came up on sharp one liners and witty wordplay probably won't find much use for it, but for those who embrace all things raunchy and ratchet, this is definitely a call to get wild."
