Light the Night Up

Chris Malone Méndez of Billboard deemed the song "an amalgamation of the different sounds that the singer has mastered so farover her career", including "the slinky R&B feel of her mixtapes and last year's EP Nightride, the poppy dance mood that characterized Joyride Japanese Version singles "Player" and "Superlove," as well as an unfamiliar EDM-leaning sound that feels like it belongs in an Ultra Music Festival set rather than a Tinashe song".^[2] Bianca Garwood of Ebony regarded it as an "upbeat track" and an "electrodance tune".^[3] Tom Breihan of Stereogum called it "a gleaming club track that sound much more like '90s Euro-techno than it probably should".^[4] Kevin Goddard of HotNewHipHop described it as "a celebratory song" and "a feel-good party anthem" that is "highlighted by its EDM-infused production and Tinashe's vocals".^[5] Mike Wass of Idolator called it "a sugary, disco-tinged banger".^[6]
