Critical reception

Robin Murray of Clash described the rock influences on the song as "jarring".[2] Gabriel Bras Nevares of HotNewHipHop wrote the song's production, "plus a longing plea for love and weakness in the face of chaotic and high-speed vices, set the stage for what Don Toliver does most successfully and consistently on HARDSTONE PSYCHO."[1]
