Composition

"Don't Come Out the House" is a horrorcore song that finds 21 Savage rapping in a whisper flow which has been compared to the song "Wait (The Whisper Song)" by the Ying Yang Twins. He whisper-raps over Tay Keith-produced bass and drums, while returning to his standard voice when the instrumental switches to piano keys produced by Metro Boomin. [1] [2] 21 Savage raps about the brutality of his past life, growing up around poverty and violence, [1] [3] and giving a warning to his enemies. [4]

Critical reception

The song received generally positive reviews from critics. It has been regarded as arguably the best song from Not All Heroes Wear Capes. [1] [5] Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork wrote, "Through half-whispered verses and spook-filled production, the duo again bring the chills, reanimating the corpses from 21's past ("All these bodies, I can't sleep at night, nigga") and threatening those who oppose him with a similar fate." [4] Marcus Blackwell of HipHopDX described the song as the most menacing record on the album, writing that 21 Savage "drops all kinds of murderous bars over a hard-hitting Metro and Tay Keith concoction". [6] Thomas Hobbs of Highsnobiety called it "one of the best rap songs of the year". [7]
