  1. The A.V. Club
    80
    A marked improvement over the lively but uneven Let's Get Ready, Tarantula suggests that the raspy-voiced rapper's run at the top of the charts won't abate any time soon.
  2. CDNow
    80
    What holds the whole thing together is still the wicked combination of Mystikal's shotgun bark and the Neptunes' bumpin' production.
  3. AllMusic
    80
    Mystikal really couldn't ask for better production, overall -- all the tracks have bouncy, ass-shakin', club-ready beats, and nearly all have quite catchy hooks
  5. Uncut
    70
    It frequently sounds terrific. [Apr 2002, p.104]

  6. New Musical Express (NME)
    60
    There's a tiny bit more to Mystikal than mere male piggery set to damn fine production.
  7. Blender
    60
    On Tarantula, Mystikal futher refines his formula. [Feb/Mar 2002, p.114]

    An underwhelming, cursory thing. [Mar 2002, p.125]
