Composition

Winston Cook-Wilson called the song an "upbeat trap anthem featuring some unpredictable flows from the rapper and a catchy vocal sample". Future sings about his lifestyle of jewelry, lean and most notably, flying on a private jet.[2][3]

Critical reception

Tom Breihan of Stereogum compared the song to Future's previous single "Crushed Up", writing, "Where 'Crushed Up' was generic Future, the new 'Jumpin On A Jet' is something closer to peak-capacity Future. It's still an example of the man operating within his comfort zone — Auto-Tuned melodies, moody trap beat, vaguely soul-destroyed conspicuous-consumption lyrics. But it shows us a Future with more energy and urgency than usual, and it's got hooks working for it, too."[4]

Music video

The music video was uploaded on YouTube on January 8, 2019, the day before the single was released. Directed by Colin Tilley, the video shows with Future climbing a ladder into the heavens and hijacking a plane with a crew.[5][6] They proceed to throw the cargo out and embark on an expedition to another planet.[3][7] Future is seen rapping on the other planet, and performing along with a group of "lovely female dancers".[6]
