Critical reception
[edit]Zachary Horvath of HotNewHipHop gave a positive review of the remix, writing "Given the stark stylistic difference of these two, you would think this collaboration would have zero chance. Well, to be honest, it's actually pretty decent. Faiyaz comes in with some of his smoothest vocals to date over the understated and lowkey skittering production. He steals the show to some degree, and we wouldn't mind hearing him over the beat by himself someday."[2]
