In addition, Mane addresses the topic of lyrics being used against artists in court ("The DA bring up lyrics in the court, may not be even true / And try to pen some shit next to your name that you ain't even do") and reflects on the jealousy that threatens his safety.[1][2] Critical receptionAaron Williams of Uproxx stated, "Gucci and Baby's powers combine on the track, with both icons feeding on each other's energy, making for a powerful statement of solidarity for multiple generations of Atlanta hip-hop."[3] Jon Powell of Revolt commented that the song "boasts one of Lil Baby's best verses of all time".[4] Music videoThe music video was released alongside the single. It sees the rappers in a warehouse setting,[4] showing off their collection of "iced-out chains".[5][6] In reference to his verse, Gucci Mane dons a hoodie emblazoned with "FREE YSL" on the front.[4] Charts
