Supastars

The song features a "luminescent" piano loop and "droning" synth accents in a trap beat,[1][2] as well as melodic vocals from Migos,[1] who rap about their wealthy lifestyles which accompany their status as "superstars", with mention of new cars and jewelry.[3][4]

Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork wrote a mixed review, calling the beat of the song "compositionally dazzling, though, layering various textures atop each other to create a real glow. C Note's keyboard chords nestle into a bed of beaming chimes as a kazoo-like synth blurts out." However, he was more critical of the lyrics, writing,

The trio raps about their staples—clout, cash, trapping, superstardom—and these bars mostly come out in jumbles; each rapper cuts corners, producing some of their least memorable verses in some time. There are plenty of filler bars like Takeoff's "I put my wrist inside the freezer / Came out froze" and more than a few half-baked ideas like Offset's "Marvin the Martian / I'ma put your brain up for auction." When the raps aren't bungled or sketchy, they're forgettable, the product of a group simply painting-by-numbers. 'Supastars' points to the possibility of Culture II being just another big-budget sequel, a shallow cash-in on the hype and not much more.[5]

Frank Guan of Vulture gave a favorable review, describing the instrumental as "a thing of beauty — slender, delicate, rapid, and forceful" and adding, "All Takeoff, Offset, and Quavo have to do is ride along with it. A couple of lines about dedication and exploding heads from Takeoff aside, the lyrics are the usual diamond-encrusted wallpaper, but so what? Lean back into the interior and enjoy the trip."[6]
