The track was first teased by Young Adz through an Instagram snippet he posted on September 11,2023,prior to the official release. [1]
Writing for Clash ,ShantéCollier-McDermott wrote that on "Eagle",Noziy has a "gritty tone adding to the song’s authentic rap feel" and "Young Adz' hook another playful salute". [3]
The Guardian 's Thomas Hobbs noted that the track is a "highlight" on Rolling Stone. He also stated that the song "has a rabble-rousing hook as well as an irresistible rags-to-riches sentiment". [4] Damien Morris for The Observer wrote that alongside "Lady in Hermes" and "I Need It Now",the song "reassert[s]" their predilection for spare,almost soporific numbness,with more gleaming melodies a minute than many rappers manage in a lifetime". [5]
The official William Thomas-directed music video was filmed in multiple locations,most notably in the capital city of Albania,Tirana. [2] While in Tirana,the three artists "made themselves at home while showing off flashy jewellery,[and] high-end vehicles". [2]
