Contents

Composition

The production features an "ethereal" synth loop, 808s and hi-hats [2] as well as a "spacey, pop-infused" beat. [3] In the lyrics, he first talks about his "Yak Sauce" as he shifts his cadence [2] [3] and his time with a friend called "pook-a-dook". [3]

Critical reception

Zachary Horvath of HotNewHipHop wrote of the song, "Unless you are into the funny bars on this thing, then have at it. While some of the lines made us genuinely laugh out loud, Kodak has stronger writing skills than this. Just look at the lyrics section below and tell us what you think. The beat itself is solid but run of the mill at the same time." [4] Donald Morrison of Passion of the Weiss commented, "The anthemic, almost corny production, sounds hilarious juxtaposed with Kodak's lyrics". [3]
