Release and promotion
On 29 April 2022 both S-X and KSI released a teaser video on their social medias announcing that they are collaborating on a new single. Critical reception
Upon release, Carl Smith from the Official Charts Company released a review stating that "Serving pulsating '80s-inspired synths from the off, Locked Out asserts itself as a song that's on-trend while avoiding imitation. This is a track totally in its own lane as S-X cements his own hybrid brand of hip-hop and R&B alt-pop, from its production flourishes to vulnerable lyrical themes." Music video
A music video premiered to S-X's YouTube channel nine hours after the song on 6 May 2022 directed by Torey Roscoe who in the past has directed music videos for both S-X and KSI. References
