Composition and lyrics
editThe song is built on a sample of "Hold on Ho",[1] using hi-hats and a horn sample as well. GloRilla boasts to her enemies,[2] declaring how she and her women friends handle problems in the opening: "You must not know what you just started / Me and my bitches go gnarly / Give a fuck about this party / We gon' step on shit regardless".[2][3][4]
Critical reception
editTom Breihan of Stereogum called the song "another in her long series of hard-stomping chant-alongs".[1] Elias Andrews of HotNewHipHop stated, "GloRilla is talking trash and flexing on her haters. What else would you want her to do? She does it well, and it sounds ridiculously catchy as she does it."[2] Aaron Williams of Uproxx wrote regarding the song, "One thing GloRilla is good at: giving fans rambunctious singalong anthems with crowd-pleasing chants set to soul-shaking beats."[4]
