Critical reception

The song received acclaim mostly for DaBaby's guest appearance. Jayson Greene at Pitchfork praised DaBaby's guest verse on the song, noting that he "crushes his turn". [4] Writing for Vulture , Craig Jenkins thought that DaBaby even "stole the show" on the song and described his verse as a "passive-aggressive jab at backstabbing friends". [5] However, in a review of the song's parent album, Chris DeVille from Stereogum opined that DaBaby along with Meek Mill merely delivered "the requisite rap verse on a Top 40 single". [6] Rolling Stone 's Nick Catucci pointed out how DaBaby's flow "highlights Post Malone's technical laxity as a rapper, but also his unerring instinct for what will cut through the ambient noise in the car, at the supermarket or during hour four of the frat party".
