Critical reception
editAriel King of Dancing Astronaut commented the song has "smooth beat matches Cortez’s crisp vocal flow, creating a slinking track that’s fit for packed nightclubs."[3] Ellie Mullins of We Rave You thought it "is a perfect anthem for the late summer nights or for a tropical DJ set with the sunset as the background."[4]
