Tiny Mix Tapes 's Corrigan B stated: " Beautiful Thugger Girls is remarkable because of its Thugger-ness" but noted that " Beautiful Thugger Girls marks the point at which his pure lyricism, absent an unimpeachable sense of melody and flow, has begun to detract from the project as a whole." Judnick Maynard of The Fader commented that Beautiful Thugger Girls "becomes more than a country album: the music isn't his master, instead he bends it to his will", and is a "testament to Young Thug's constantly evolving creative reach". But he doesn't terraform them to his whims so much as try them on for size". Daniel Bromfield of Pretty Much Amazing argued "Young Thug cycles through a lot of styles here: lovebird R&B, sensitive acoustic folk, even country. Scott Glaysher of XXL said, "Thug sounds the best he's ever sounded, despite some of the songs begin fairly far removed from his proverbial comfort zone". Paul Thompson of Pitchfork labelled Beautiful Thugger Girls Young Thug's "most compelling experiment in pop", saying it "strips away all the clutter, leaving his best-developed melodies and most evocative songwriting to date" while comparing it to Lil Wayne's Rebirth.
