In the days leading up to the album's release, Future posted snippets of selected tracks through videos on social media.^[4] Each visual featured some of the most well-known wizards in popular culture, including Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter and the Wizard of Oz from the Wizard of Oz.^[4] In an interview with Genius, Future revealed that the album and its title is dedicated to a late uncle of his who gave him the nickname, "Wizard".^[5]

Singles

The first single, "Crushed Up", was released on January 4, 2019, with its music video, directed by Spike Jordan and Sebastian Sdaigui, also being released the same day.^[3] "Jumpin on a Jet", produced by Southside, was released on January 9 along with a music video showing a heist on an airplane.^[6] "First Off" featuring American rapper Travis Scott, was sent to rhythmic and urban contemporary radio on February 12, 2019, as the album's third official single.^[7]

The Wizrd was met with generally positive reviews. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 70, based on 12 reviews.^[9] The aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it 6.1 out of 10, based on its assessment of the critical consensus.^[8]

XXL gave the album a positive review stating, "The lean guest list of trap all-stars Young Thug, Gunna and Travis Scott delivers solid if unspectacular support down the home stretch. Diehard Future fans, of which there are legion, will be satisfied. But at 20 tracks, The Wizrd runs overlong. Jewels like 'F&N' (with its nifty beat switch), 'Promise U That' and 'Faceshot' run the risk of getting lost in all the streaming".^[19] Tommy Monroe of Consequence said, "A 20-track album is a lot. But with The WIZRD, one can barely feel it because of the smooth flow from track to track. Even the few misses don't disrupt the rhythm of the project".^[12] Rolling Stone's Charles Holmes wrote, "The Wizrd is the last album in Future's current major-label deal, and it's effective at reinforcing the qualities that turned him into a star, as well as outlining his rags-to-riches story one more time for those who weren't paying attention".^[18] Pitchfork critic Jayson Greene said, "The production is muted, minor-key, and consistently beautiful, conjuring the familiar Future Moods: rain-streaked neon signs, drug-induced stupors inside of clubs at 3 a.m. If you are content to live inside this lonely little world Future has made, he is still keeping it nice for you. What you won't find on The WIZRD is the sound of Future stretching or surprising himself".^[16] Christopher Thiessen of PopMatters said, "Though The Wizrd does run too long (as tends to be the norm nowadays), the bangers here are bangers and make this album exciting on every repeated listen. That being said, it is about time for Future to reveal the "man behind the curtain" and to move on from the excess materialism and misogyny".^[17]

In a mixed review, Clash's Malvika Padin wrote, "The world of hip-hop and rap is changing and, while Future's pattern works well, it becomes slightly repetitive with every listen".^[11] In a negative review, Dhruva Balram of NME wrote that "although The Wizrd makes concessions to rap's move towards greater introspection, these 20 tracks largely draw on the same, tired formula he's been rolling out since 2012's Pluto", concluding Future's "candidness hasn't really found its way onto The Wizrd. There's something to be said for creating music exclusively for the club or to be bumped in car stereos in the summer, but with a bland, out-dated musical architecture, The Wizrd doesn't even offer that. In an era where rap and hip-hop's sound is changing, rapidly, with introspective and socially conscious flows the norm even in the mainstream, Future seems to be mired in the past".^[15]

 ''[[XXL (magazine)|XXL]]'' gave the album a positive review stating, "The lean guest list of trap all-stars Young Thug, [[Gunna (rapper)|Gunna]] and Travis Scott delivers solid if unspectacular support down the home stretch. Diehard Future fans, of which there are legion, will be satisfied. But at 20 tracks, ''The Wizrd'' runs overlong. Jewels like 'F&N' (with its nifty beat switch), 'Promise U That' and 'Faceshot' run the risk of getting lost in all the streaming".<ref name="XXL"/> Tommy Monroe of ''[[Consequence (publication)|Consequence]]'' said, "A 20-track album is a lot. But with ''The WIZRD'', one can barely feel it because of the smooth flow from track to track. Even the few misses don't disrupt the rhythm of the project".<ref name="COS"/> ''[[Rolling Stone]]''{{'}}s Charles Holmes wrote, "''The Wizrd'' is the last album in Future's current major-label deal, and it's effective at reinforcing the qualities that turned him into a star, as well as outlining his rags-to-riches story one more time for those who weren't paying attention".<ref name="RollingStone"/> ''[[Pitchfork (website)|Pitchfork]]'' critic Jayson Greene said, "The production is muted, minor-key, and consistently beautiful, conjuring the familiar Future Moods: rain-streaked neon signs, drug-induced stupors inside of clubs at 3 a.m. If you are content to live inside this lonely little world Future has made, he is still keeping it nice for you. What you won't find on ''The WIZRD'' is the sound of Future stretching or surprising himself".<ref name="Pitchfork"/> Christopher Thiessen of ''[[PopMatters]]'' said, "Though ''The Wizrd'' does run too long (as tends to be the norm nowadays), the bangers here are bangers and make this album exciting on every repeated listen. That being said, it is about time for Future to reveal the "man behind the curtain" and to move on from the excess materialism and misogyny".<ref name="PopMatters"/>

 In a mixed review, ''[[Clash (magazine)|Clash]]''{{'}}s Malvika Padin wrote, "The world of hip-hop and rap is changing and, while Future's pattern works well, it becomes slightly repetitive with every listen".<ref name="Clash"/> In a negative review, Dhruva Balram of ''[[NME]]'' wrote that "although ''The Wizrd'' makes concessions to rap's move towards greater introspection, these 20 tracks largely draw on the same, tired formula he's been rolling out since 2012's ''[[Pluto (Future album)|Pluto]]''", concluding Future's "candidness hasn't really found its way onto ''The Wizrd''. There's something to be said for creating music exclusively for the club or to be bumped in car stereos in the summer, but with a bland, out-dated musical architecture, ''The Wizrd'' doesn't even offer that. In an era where rap and hip-hop's sound is changing, rapidly, with introspective and socially conscious flows the norm even in the mainstream, Future seems to be mired in the past".<ref name="NME"/>
