Reception

Overall, No Ceilings 2 has received fairly positive reviews with few opinions being generally quite sour particularly, when comparing it to his first No Ceilings mixtape. Despite that, professional critics felt more warmly to the tape. HeyReverb described Wayne's efforts as loose and limber.[1] Going on to say It’s hilarious, absurd, outrageous and brilliant. Forbes commented "Despite Label Woes, Lil Wayne Remains The Mixtape Master".[2]

NME wrote a very positive review, giving the mixtape 4/5 and saying "This aint a stop-gap, it’s a goddamn arms race. 'No Ceilings 2', Lil Wayne’s newest free mixtape, is about more than suppressing fans’ appetites for the New Orleans rapper’s much-delayed album 'Tha Carter V', of which there’s still no sign. His third release this year, and sequel to 2009’s 'No Ceilings', is a reminder of Wayne’s prowess, as he outdoes rivals on their own tracks.[3] Robert Christgau gave the album a 3-star honorable mention rating, which corresponds to "an enjoyable effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well treasure.".[4][5]

Artists Wiz Khalifa[6] and Erykah Badu[7] have expressed their fondness of the tape on social media.
