Critical reception

Ariel King of Dancing Astronaut commented the song has "smooth beat matches Cortez’s crisp vocal flow, creating a slinking track that’s fit for packed nightclubs."[3] Ellie Mullins of We Rave You thought it "is a perfect anthem for the late summer nights or for a tropical DJ set with the sunset as the background."[4]

Music video

An accompanying music video was released on July 30, 2021, directed by Stillz, and starring Mia Khalifa. The characteristic of video is "thrilling shots of Cortez on a motorcycle and partying in the back of a fast-moving truck."[5] and ends with "Skrillex and Cortez party in a room that bursts into flames."[6]
