Critical reception
Lynn S. of HotNewHipHop wrote, "both iann and Baby deliver solid verses, keeping up with one another without stealing the spotlight." Noting the shift from Dior's previous pop-punk single "Sick and Tired" to his normal style, she further stated, "This dramatic switch proves that, as per usual, iann seems to be able to pull off almost any sound, and practically any artist can hop on a track and mesh well with him."[1]
Music video
The music video was directed by Omar Jones and released on August 11, 2020. Featuring East Asian elements, it shows Iann Dior surrounded by Asian architecture, geisha models, and Chinese mountains.[2]
