The rapper Drake called the film "genius" in an interview with Rap Radar and Justin Staple of Vice named it "The Defining Document of the SoundCloud Rap Generation."

The Playlist's Ryan Oliver writes: "Having only witnessed the quick meteoric rise of Lil Peep in the peripherals as it was unfolding, Everybody’s Everything is a loving tribute for fans as well as those unfamiliar. And for the latter, the doc truly creates a sense of humanity, awe, and undeniable raw talent that it makes it easy to see why his music connected with so many people in such a quick amount time." David Ehrlich of IndieWire called the film "a riveting and hypnotic sanctification of the late musician." David Fear of Rolling Stone described it as "a hard film to watch, and an even harder one to look away from. But it needs to be seen." Many critics have also noted the unique use of letters written to Peep by his grandfather John Womack throughout the film. Variety's Andrew Barker called them "heartbreakingly poetic" and said of the ending "the film snaps back into stunning focus during its epilogue, where Peep’s grandfather Womack, previously only heard in voiceover, is allowed to speak at length. Unfazed by all the face tattoos and calculated outrageousness that accompanied his grandson’s artistic persona, Womack clearly never stopped seeing Peep as his little boy, and his quiet ruminations on mortality and manhood land with shattering force."
