Composition

Kevin Goddard of HotNewHipHop called the song a "light-hearted, catchy street banger".[1] Produced by in-house producer Ness, a label mate of A Boogie wit da Hoodie, the instrumental has a "cheerful" piano loop with "trap drums" playing which appears to be sampled from "Butter Building" from the Nintendo game Kirby's Epic Yarn, along with a faint sound of police siren. A Boogie sings about his experiences of life in the streets and being stopped by police,[2] and what his newfound success has to offer him.[1][3]

Music video

Directed by Michael Garcia, the accompanying music video was released on January 5, 2018. It begins with A Boogie wit da Hoodie in an argument with a woman before noticing that police have spotted him. He hops into his Mercedes-Benz, which transforms into a Ferrari,[4] with a female model by his side.[5] The visual then alternates between animated and live-action shots, showing the pursuit, which is being televised. Boogie stops his car and leaves the model inside, and makes his way to a staircase and onto a rooftop.[5] He eventually outruns the police, and on his way downstairs, he sees a couple of kids who were watching him on the news the entire time.[6]
