Critical reception
Rap-Up called the track a "global crossover track" featuring "Latin,alternative,hip-hop and pop influences". [4] Michael Saponara of Billboard wrote that XXXTentacion "implements an intoxicating flow mixed with some Spanish over the Mally Mall,Jon FX,handling the reggaeton-tinged track's chorus duties". [6] C. Vernon Coleman II of XXL also felt the track had a "reggaeton feel",with Pump "stunt[ing] heavy as usual" and Swae Lee delivering a "rosy verse". [7] In addition,Winston Cook-Wilson of Spin called the track "house-inflected". [8]
While Ben Kaye of Consequence of Sound labeled it a "Latin-flavored club jam",he also stated that the timing of its release was "a bit of cringeworthy irony" with XXXTentacion's line in the chorus about protecting someone,Kaye said a recently released recording features him "confessing to multiple violent crimes including assaulting his girlfriend and stabbing eight people",though this interpretation of the recording was disputed. [1] Brendan Klinkenberg of Rolling Stone felt that the song is "bland,Latin-inflected pop that reflects none of the talents of its four collaborators" and also called it "a mish-mash of vague pop-in-2018 signifiers without cohering into any sort of artistic statement".
