A music video was created for "Who's That? Brooown!". The video linked to a playable online game. Pitchfork included it on the "Top Music Videos of 2010" list, while Rolling Stone included it on the "Best Videos of 2010" list. It was selected to screen at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. A music video was also created for "Rainbow in the Dark".

Critical reception
Nate Patrin of Pitchfork gave the mixtape a 7.8 out of 10, saying, "Das Racist's Brooklyn-buzz affiliations and humorous bent might mislead you into thinking it's an exercise in cheap laffs for people who don't take rap seriously, but this album feels a lot more like the irreverent hip-hop fanboy mania of ego trip magazine than smarmy genre tourism." Chris Molnar of Cokemachineglow wrote: "Maybe the most refreshing thing about Shut Up, Dude is how it sounds completely free of calculation." Sean Fennessey of The Village Voice called it "a deeply self-conscious batch of word-association jumbles, references to other artists' lyrics, and half-hearted hooks."

Stereogum placed the mixtape at number 30 on the "Top 50 Albums of 2010" list.
