Background
In an interview with BNT, Bibi explained why she named the album Life is a Bi....[2]
Everything in life came to me like temptation. I came to think of life as a bad bitch that teases me and cannot be understood.
Music and lyrics
According to Seoul Beats, "Bibi likens her perspective of life to experiencing inner conflicts from a toxic relationship."[3] In “Piri the dog,” she "reveals the severe emotional consequences of a codependent relationship, likening herself to an abandoned dog."[4] Unlike the gloomy lyrics, the music is "rather bright", characterized by trap-based repetitive melodies.[5] "Birthday Cake" expresses sadness with the sound of falling water droplets and "Life is a Bi..." properly uses string instruments to heighten emotions.[6]

Critical reception
Kim Do-yeon of IZM rated the album 3 out of 5 stars. According to her, "Bibi tries to draw empathy from listeners by honestly telling her story in a short time. The album will comfort those in their 20s and help those turning 20 overcome difficult moments."[6]
Kim Hyo-jin of Rhythmer rated the album 2.5 out of 5 stars. According to her, "the depiction of the universality of tragedy is interesting." However, "the music to support it is unpolished and the story was not fully developed due to the small number of songs."[5]
