The song was noted for Megan's vintage, "hard-hitting" bars and the "stabbing" piano riff.
It impacted rhythmic and urban radio on November 30, 2021, as the second single from Something for Thee Hotties.
[1] The song features "vintage" Meg bars over what was described as an "uncharacteristically minimal" Lil Ju beat, which contains a "stabbing" piano and a "bouncy" bassline, as Megan references a Nike deal she just closed, among other things.

[5] Njera Perkins of PopSugar named it among the songs on the album that shows Megan's "hard-hitting bars are back in full force".
