Upon release, Pitchfork awarded Flower Boy the title of "Best New Music" and a rating of 8.5/10. Critic Sheldon Pearce calls it "Tyler's most sincere and most accomplished album, he gets to the essence of what he's been chiseling at: the angst of a missed connection, the pain of unrequited love, and navigating youthful ennui." Jamie Milton NME writes the album is "Backed by a supporting cast of R&B superstars and bright newcomers, it's a record of long, lazy summers; sitting back and staring at the clouds."
