Composition
The song finds EsDeeKid rapping about his past, substance use and persona over a gritty beat.[1] Stylistically, it has been compared to Music by Playboi Carti.[2]
Critical reception
Nathan Evans of Dazed wrote "Whether he's barking at the beat or slouching back, he uses every harsh quality of the accent to his advantage. 'I'm a burden, I'm a scumbag / I was raised in Liverpool's slums, lad,' he spits out on '4 Raws'. From the way he delivers it, you can tell he wouldn't have it any other way."[2]
Commercial performance
According to Luminate, the song earned over three million official on-demand U.S. streams in the week of November 14–20.[3] On December 22, the song charted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making its debut at number 95.[4]
Remix

On December 19, 2025, despite not being released onto streaming platforms, EsDeeKid followed through with a surprise release of the remix for the track, which saw him feature the American and French actor Timothée Chalamet on the track following the viral speculation that EsDeeKid was Chalamet in disguise, completely debunking that theory.[5][6]
