Critical reception
Elias Leight of Rolling Stone called the song "loopy" and praised Lil Wayne's contribution to the song, saying "Wayne shines during his verse, delivering self-destructive rhymes while skipping nimbly around the plodding beat".[3] Carly Mallenbaum of USA Today felt that the song is "sexy".[4]
