The song contains a "smooth, snappy, contagious backdrop". Lyrically, Lecrae speaks about "the ways of the club, staying true to himself while having some fun."^[1]

Reception

Jake Rohn from BET wrote: "Lecrae nods again to Lamar (and the shifting consciousness of the mainstream) on the K.E. on the Track-produced, 'I'm Turnt,' satirically flipping a club-friendly sound to create an anti-Molly anthem."^[2] In its review of the whole mixtape, HipHopDX wrote: "At worst, songs like 'I’m Turnt' come off just as stylistically unimaginative as anything on the radio or BET. But they’ll earn points for offering substance—even if it occasionally appears in the form of clichés, such as talk of 'being high on the spirit, bro.' "^[3] In October 2013, Lecrae performed the song BET's 106 & Park.^[4]
