Critical reception
Carl Lamarre of Billboard called the track an "anti-love anthem" that "finds Goulding taking a darker approach, after watching her relationship spiral".[3] Mike Wass of Idolator felt the song is a "hip-hop-flavored banger".[6] Jael Goldfine from Paper wrote that the song is a "moody, masochistic, tongue-in-cheek new collaboration" as Goulding "dares an ex to say all the mean, ugly things broken-hearted people say to each other".[7]
