The song finds Offset performing in a staccato rhythm, [1] while Gunna melodically performs in a nasal quality and "syrupy" cadences. In the lyrics, they boast about their luxurious, self-indulgent lifestyles. [1] [2]

Critical reception

Mackenzie Cummings-Grady of Billboard placed "Different Species" at number seven in her ranking of the songs from Kiari, writing that the rappers' styles "perfectly complement" each other in a way that "creates a dynamic interplay that's hard to ignore." She added "While the subject matter treads familiar braggadocious territory, the sheer smoothness of their execution makes it hard to complain." [1]
