The song was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), signifying domestic sales of over 500,000 units.

Complex staff editor David Drake elaborated saying, "Transforming the concept of ambiguity into a boast, the song was as conceptually clever as Meek Mill's "Levels", but was easily the more distinctive composition.
