Source Rating
Allmusic 1.5/5 stars [2]
NME (7/10)[citation needed]
Robert Christgau (choice cut) [3]
RapReviews (7.5/10) [4]
Yahoo! Music (favorable) [5]

Cypress Hill IV received mixed reviews from critics, with Allmusic giving it a strongly negative review.

Rolling Stone - 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "Cypress Hill's most bangin' LP since their 1991 debut.… Cypress Hill still name-check firearms, threaten rivals and smoke more weed than a congregation of Rastas. But the obsessions are means to an end."[6]

The Wire - "…they come out fighting. Red eyed, rabid and slobbering with skunk-fueled menace.… gangsta rap's future as a musical force is secure."[7]

Rap Pages - 4 (out of 5) - "Like previous albums…IV's fabulous formula of speakerphone tones by B-Real and sporadic comments by Sen Dog resembles 'How I Could Just Kill A Man'."[8]
