Nate Patrin of Pitchfork gave the mixtape a 7.8 out of 10, saying, "Das Racist's Brooklyn-buzz affiliations and humorous bent might mislead you into thinking it's an exercise in cheap laffs for people who don't take rap seriously, but this album feels a lot more like the irreverent hip-hop fanboy mania of ego trip magazine than smarmy genre tourism."[13] Chris Molnar of Cokemachineglow wrote: "Maybe the most refreshing thing about Shut Up, Dude is how it sounds completely free of calculation."[10] Sean Fennessey of The Village Voice called it "a deeply self-conscious batch of word-association jumbles, references to other artists' lyrics, and half-hearted hooks."[15]
Stereogum placed the mixtape at number 30 on the "Top 50 Albums of 2010" list.[16]
