Critical reception[edit]
Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork commented that the song has "the perfect instrumental for Lil Tjay's light flow" and "Jay Critch trades his youth infused Fabolous-style delivery for a melody that sounds amateurish next to Tjay's, yet Critch's swag and personality sells the verse by the end."[1]
