the song received mixed responses from various music critics. sal cinquemani pointed to the tone of del rey's vocals and its break of cohesion from the other tracks on ultraviolence saying "the hook of the bonus track "florida kilos," co-written by harmony korine, is marred by del rey's britney-grade vocal infantilism, and while that might make it the perfect theme song for the planned spring breakers sequel, the song's pop bounce doesn't jibe with the rest of the album's earthier qualities."
