Critical reception

Pitchfork ranked the song at number 69 on their list of the top 100 songs of 2014.[4] Complex named the song at number two on their list of the 50 best songs of 2014.[5] Brooklyn Russell of Pretty Much Amazing described it as "a sort of Millennial version of Generation X's 'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang'", calling it "an all-encompassing generational hip-hop party track". Russell also praised the song's production, adding: "Thug comes through over a breezy instrumental and casually gives us the now iconic opening line: 'I did a lot of shit just to live this here lifestyle'".[6]

Music video

A music video for "Lifestyle", directed by Be El Be, was released on June 29, 2014.[7] The video features Birdman, Young Thug, Rich Homie Quan, and others partying with women on a plane and yacht. Mack Maine, Soulja Boy, and the song's producer London on da Track make cameo appearances.

In August 2014, American rapper Lil Boosie released his remix of "Lifestyle".[8] On September 29, shortly after being signed to Rich Gang and Cash Money Records, Atlanta-based singer Jacquees released a video to his remix of "Lifestyle".[9] Another remix of the song by Atlanta-based rapper Waka Flocka Flame was released in October 2014.[10] In March 2023, country-pop artist Morgan Wallen interpolated the song for his track "180 (Lifestyle)" on his album One Thing at a Time.[11]
