Composition

The song sees the rappers "deliver boastful bars" over a sample of "400 Degreez" by rapper Juvenile.[1][2] In particular, Lil Baby proclaims himself as the Lil Wayne of the current hip hop generation.[3]

Critical reception

The song received generally favorable reviews; Lil Baby's verse was particularly well received by critics. Writing for Uproxx, Caitlin White commented, "All the rappers deliver on their verses, but Lil Baby's final, rapid-fire effort is definitely worth sticking around for."[1] Mitch Findlay of HotNewHipHop wrote, "Though Lil Baby certainly has the edge in that department being a superstar and all, that doesn't stop the other three from bringing their A-game."[4]

Music video

The official music video was directed by Diesel Films and released on August 11, 2021. It shows the four artists in a white room filled with luxury cars and motorbikes, showing their stacks of money and in the company of their crews.[1][2][3]
