Kennedy of The Los Angeles Times stated that, "Overwrought with rap cliches, Fan of a Fan is a formulaic heaping of bouncy bangers primed for the strip clubs that likely inspired it. There isn't much here, besides expletive-filled musings on sex, drugs, cars, money and dangerous misogyny".[12]

Fan of a Fan: The Album debuted at number 7 on the Billboard 200 selling 66,000 copies (51,000 in pure album sales).[13][14] In the second week the album fell at number 24, selling 21,000 copies (12,000 in pure album sales).[15] As of March 2015, the album has sold 72,000 copies and streamed 16 million times domestically.[16] Fan of a Fan: The Album is the second best-selling studio album Tyga and Brown's lowest sales album.
