Background and promotion

edit

On November 30, 2019, the rapper teased the release by sharing a preview that shows them dancing to the song on their social media. They called the dance the "Futsal Shuffle".[10] They predicted the dance to "takeover 2020".[11]

Critical reception

edit

Tony M. Centeno at XXL described the song as an "upbeat banger" with a production "that incorporates EDM synths over a bass-heavy loop".[12] Joshua Espinoza of Complex saw it as "a quintessential Uzi track" while lyrically, the track "delivers cocky lines about private jets, money, designer labels, and stealing other dudes' girls".[13] Billboard's Lars Brandle thought the song "pours old school rave notes over the Philadelphia rapper's taut wordplay (and occasional gunshots)".[14]

Music video

edit

An official video, directed by Jay Weneta, was released on January 6, 2020. In it, Lil Uzi Vert and their friends perform the song's titular "Futsal Shuffle" dance. The video includes scenes with "vibrant visual effects, including slow-motion touches, random bursts of fireworks and brief flashes of a dancing anime character".[15]
