It was released through Capitol Records as the third single from his second studio album Heartbreak Weather on February 7, 2020.

[3] "No Judgement" is a sultry pop anthem that was compared to his song "Slow Hands".

[4][7][8] In terms of music notation, "No Judgement" was composed using 44 common time in the key of C♯ minor, with a tempo of 100 beats per minute.

The music video starts out with Horan wearing a James Bond-esque white suit and talking to the viewer about a period called "No Judgement" that appears instead of the need to impress; it then transitions to him singing along and spectating scenes of an elderly couple doing random things in the rest of the video.

The song debuted at number 97 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Horan's fifth entry on the chart.
