Composition

The song has a "street-oriented" theme.[1] Over a "rowdy" beat, Nardo Wick begins the song with a chorus followed by a "sharp" verse, and declares himself a "hot boy". Lil Baby performs the second verse.[2]

Critical reception

Alexander Cole of HotNewHipHop gave the song a "Very Hotttt" rating and wrote, "Immediately, you are met with some truly dazzling production here. The drums sound incredible and the entire vibe fits Nardo Wick and his aesthetic perfectly. As for his rapping, he sound focused and as menacing as ever. His flow is impeccable, and if you are already a fan, you are going to be impressed. For those being introduced to Nardo Wick for the first time, this is going to make you a fan. As for Lil Baby, he does his thing as well. In fact, his contributions do a good job of enhancing the song."[3]
