"Too Much" was met with generally positive reviews frommusic critics. David Amidon ofPopMatters wrote that it was "hard... not to look at 'Too Much' as the brief return of the album we really want from Drake. This is the sort of song where everything comes together in such new, glimmering ways as to validate any claims Drake makes to shifting the game around on opener 'Tuscan Leather'."[3] Tim Sendra ofAllMusic called "Too Much" a "brilliant combination of brag rap and quiet storm balladry."[4] Julia Leconte ofNow praised its production as "beautiful."[5] Evan Rytlewski ofThe A.V. Club opined that the song "is beautiful in its achy simplicity."[6]
