Susan Smith of The Columbus Dispatch said that Brown on the song puts on his "singer-with-rapper-sensibilities" persona, for an "edgy" and "very likable" song.[7] Michael Arcenaux of Complex said that the song "comes across as rather banal and beneath Brown's talent".[8] Brad Wete of Billboard said that the song is one of the standout moments on Royalty, comparing it to Brown's previous single "Look at Me Now" (2011).[5] Mike Pizzo of Las Vegas Weekly said that in the song Solo Lucci is a "Future ripoff".[9] Brandon Caldwell of Houston Press, despite commending Lucci's performance on the track, said that the song "sucks", criticizing its lyrics, saying that "Brown is a legend, of the bad-boy variety. He's also the creator of far too many songs that should never have left the studio, "Wrist" included".[4]
