The album was received positively by critics, where Los Angeles Times and Rolling Stone gave full marks. Stephen Erlewine of AllMusic remarked of how it felt like "another opportunity to milk" the rapper's catalog, but added that it lived up to its name with its expansive track listing. Matt Diehl of Entertainment Weekly gave an A- and wrote, "his career-spanning collection of Greatest Hits is truly vital for painting a complete picture of rap's symbol of martyrdom....Together, these seemingly disparate strands depict a fascinating portrait of an artist unafraid to be—or unable not to be—complicated."
awarded the recorded a full five stars, writing, "Thankfully, the inevitable Greatest Hits collection turns out to be the hands-down winner among all hip-hop best-ofs. Like Madonna, Pac knew a few things some of his more lyrically skillful peers did not, like what a hook was and how a melody could help you find your way onto the radio. For these reasons, Greatest Hits easily earns its two-disc amplitude." Music journalist Robert Christgau gave a star in his reference book, indicating an Honorable Mention: "a worthy effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well like." Los Angeles Times' Soren Baker praised the "powerful selections from his entire recording career," and added that the unreleased tracks in particular will give fans new content to consume.
