[5] 21 Savage raps a similar theme from a male perspective. [6] XXL described Cardi's triplet flow as Migos-esque. [7]
Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork noted "her phrases sway naturally,the same way her chatter does. She never minces words,and in these verses,her taunts and insults are even more cutting." He opined the single is "even more audacious" than her previous "Bodak Yellow" and "full of the same controlled aggression",though "not as instantly quotable". He added "Cardi has a distinct presence,and next to the inexpressive 21 [Savage] she seems even livelier." [8] Jon Caramanica in The New York Times described it as a "sinister,greasy number full of quick-tongued rapping",featuring a "charmingly snarling verse" from 21 Savage. [9] Jose Martinez of Complex described it as a "banger", [10] and Sidney Madden of NPR opined,for its "fairly simple rhyme scheme" it is "perfect" for fans to "belt out in the club". [11] For Tosten Burks of Spin ,21 Savage "feels out of place". [12]
