Heart Blanche received generally mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 57 based on 14 reviews, which indicates "mixed or average reviews".[3] Ryan B. Patrick of Exclaim! wrote that "Heart Blanche, while delivering Green's usually masterful take on gospel-influenced and pop-minded R&B, feels listless and lacks passion."[5]
