Writing for The Fader, David Renshaw praised Ice Spice's "effortless confidence" in the song and commented, "she flexes for two minutes straight, offering up quotable lines ('You know my body, I do it with ease') and outsized comic imagery ('I'm walkin' past him, he sniffin' my breeze')". Jon Caramanica of The New York Times wrote, "In a frenzied genre, she's a calm rapper, which is part of what makes this song so frosty—the beat is skittish and portentous, but Ice Spice sounds at peace. She's rhyming quickly, but also calmly and slightly dismissively, probably because of the subject matter." Pitchfork ranked the song the 30th best of 2022, praising how Ice Spice "balances her brashness with a supremely unbothered delivery, as if she's been swatting away munches for decades. Centuries, even."
