Critical reception

Michael Saponara of Billboard ranked "Type Shit" as the fourth best song on We Don't Trust You. Saponara wrote that despite Future setting the tone on the track, Travis "invades the scene and makes it his own blockbuster". He notes that Travis "awakens all five senses", crediting his "smokey" vocals for the shift in the track's aesthetic.^[8]

Writing for Clash, Robin Murray stated that the song is "awkward" and described it as "less a song and more a chant over a beat".^[9] HipHopDX's Scott Glasher wrote that the song is a "true assembly of modern rap’s Avengers". Glasher wrote that Travis and Carti's "dystopian distorted vocals" on the "harrowing beat" can be described as "Medieval church bells drenched with thundering 808s".^[10]
