Overview

"Hungry" is a song recorded by American singer Fergie, featuring guest vocals from American rapper Rick Ross. It was released officially on August 25, 2017, as a promotional single from Fergie's second studio album, Double Dutchess. Although the song was officially released in August 2017, Fergie began teasing the song in June 2016, posting "Hungry (1st Byte)" and "Hungry (2nd Byte)". Musically, the song is a hip hop/pop track with a "stuttering beat" and Middle Eastern elements. The track contains a sample of Dead Can Dance's 1987 song "Dawn of the Iconoclast". The song received a positive feedback from music critics, with most praising Fergie's vocals and the production, although some felt the track came across as more of an interlude. The music video was directed by Bruno Ilogti. Critical reception Upon release, the song received generally positive reviews. Jon Wiederhorn of Radio.com praised for "stuttering beat and sensual vocals". Idolators Mike Wass described the song as "hypnotic hip-hop track" and believed that it "sounds more like an interlude than an actual song". Tara Joshi of The Guardian said that the song "is all sassy delivery and theatrical production that prove Fergie an unstoppable force of hip-hop-infused pop". Music videos "Hungry (1st Byte)" was released on June 9, 2016. After its release, it was presumed that "Hungry" would be an intro track for Fergie's second album. In the video, there are snakes, spiders, fire and a broken glass. MTV's Madeline Roth described the music video as "exciting, promising sign of more to come". Brennan Carley of Spin called it "stylish as hell".
