Critical reception
editRobert Blair of HotNewHipHop gave a negative response to the song, commenting A Boogie's "inaugural exchanges" with Juice Wrld "leaves much to be desired, a cookie-cutter "for the streams" type of collaboration".[2] Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork was critical of the collaboration's inclusion on Hoodie SZN, writing "A Boogie's personality is diluted by the sight of Juice WRLD, as the Chicago emo-rap superstar strangely sings about demons and angels as if he's unaware this is an Uptown bottle-service club album."[3]
