Composition
An opening track with a "cosmic-sounding beat" as well as a "soaring, vowel-emphasizing hook",[1] "Flooded the Face" sees Uzi boasting about their success and wealth. Lyrics primarily focus on "materialistic possessions".[2] The rapper directly tackles rumors regarding their sexuality, bragging about their body count with women.[3] In doing so, they address speculations of them being gay, asking the listener, "how could you ever say Lil Uzi Gay?".[4] Despite several braggadocious lines, Uzi also shows love to their girlfriend JT.[5]
Critical reception
Ahmad Davis of Rap-Up thought the track was a "poetic intro".[3] Likewise, Robin Murray at Clash called "Flooded the Face" (along with "Suicide Doors") "an emphatic opening", emphasizing on their "hilariously surreal word play".[6] Slant's Paul Attard described the rapper's form on the song as "classic Uzi".[1]
