Critical reception
Writing for Exclaim!, Chris Dart called it a "mix of likeability and being at the right place at the right time," and praised the production, which he described as "run[ning] the gamut from chillwave to experimental keyboard soundscapes to something best described as what would happen you force fed trap music through an '80s soft rock band." Pitchfork wrote that "Yachty is delivering an aesthetic, which is catnip to some (mostly those 25 and under) and repellent to others. But if you're locked in, Summer Songs 2 can be a lot of fun."
Tiny Mix Tapes highlighted the mixtape in their monthly roundup, describing it as "another mega ray of light to a chorus of auto-tuned cheers and boat ad-libs," describing the songs as "fresh air in a stiff room, and damn if this world doesn't need more of it."
