Critical reception

Ryan Dillon of Glide Magazine called Four Songs "a great welcome-back present for long-time fans", saying, "The short yet efficient project gives us a hint as to where Hynes is going creatively", and points out how Blood Orange is "experimenting with different song structures and vocal tones to create a more atmospheric sound."[2] James Greig of Dazed says the EP "feels like vintage Blood Orange: downbeat, sultry, sharply produced and a little melancholy in parts."[3]
