Composition and critical reception

In regard to style, the song has been considered similar to that of rapper Heavy D's music. Steve "Flash" Juon of RapReviews wrote of the song, "Listening to the song you can't help but think of Bobby Brown, Teddy Riley and Keith Sweat – it's classic 1990's new jack swing all the way. Given the contentious relationship between Chris Brown and Rihanna, the lyrics from the suave and seductive Markie Dee seem apt even today."
