Rich Nigga Shit

The instrumental of the song contains "peppy" synths and fiddle along with a "subtle but dynamic" bassline which "mimics an analog instrument",^[1] Rolling Stone's Danny Schwartz described it as a "slow-motion, DJ Screw-indebted beat seemingly dipped in codeine".^[2] The lyrics center on the lavish lifestyles of 21 Savage and Young Thug.^[3] Consequence's Rashad Grove described the song "sounds like a modernized version of Teddy Riley's New Jack Swing that ruled the late '80s through the mid-'90s."^[4]

Rashad Grove of Consequence gave the song a positive review, writing, "It's jamming for sure, destined to be an anthem for ballers everywhere. While 21 and Young Thug both make the song a banger, it's Metro Boomin's distinct ear and musicianship that stand out. He is staking his claim as one of the go-to producers of his generation."^[4] Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork praised the production's combination of a "hypnotic" string section with a "breezy West Coast vibe (and lots of cowbell)", stating "It shouldn't work but does, like a french fry dipped in a milkshake", as well as writing, "21 comes off slightly unnatural on the song, ultimately overshadowed by a Young Thug guest verse memorable enough to reignite Metro Thuggin pipedreams."^[5]
