A music video for the song directed by Lawrence Lamont was still released in March 2015 and is a period piece that features Cole as a house slave to a white-owned plantation.
Marshall Gu of PopMatters said that it has "the most inspired beat on the album," but was put off by the lyric that's similar to Jay Z's verse on "Drunk in Love".
[2] Craig Jenkins of Pitchfork Media highlighted it alongside "Fire Squad" and "A Tale of 2 Citiez" for displaying Cole's technical delivery.
[3] Martín Caballero of USA Today was critical of the track, putting it alongside "St. Tropez" and "No Role Modelz" for their lackluster production techniques and delivery of concept, saying they "become so bloated and desperate to be taken seriously they stop being fun.
Cole had the concept in mind for two years, originally wanting it for the Born Sinner track "Chaining Day" and Hype Williams as the video's director.
