Composition.
Robin Murray for "Clash" wrote that the track "subverts those rolling trap snares, its dub-like effects and low-end saturation conjuring feels of absence and melancholy". Jon Powell for "Revolt TV" wrote that the track "helps to show the listeners how far these talents exist above the opposition".
Music video.
The Edem Wornoo-directed music video has several references to films: the burning money in the video refers to "The Dark Knight" in which The Joker is seen burning money, as the whole video is shot in reverse, it plays homage to "TENET", and the gambling and prostitution scenes relate to "Casino".
