Background

[edit]

Critical reception

[edit]

Writing for Clash, Robin Murray wrote that the track is a "highlight" of the album and that the track "spotlight[s] his effortless trap-leaning flows".[7] Pitchfork's Matthew Ritchie wrote that "Gwen Dickey’s lilting voice echoes in the background" of the song creates "a morose arena in which 21 dwells upon the violence and backstabbing he survived to reach this stage of his life".[8] Grant Rindner for Vibe stated that the song includes his "21’s strongest rap skills" due to his "caustic sense of humor and deadpan delivery".[9]
