Critical reception
Soulbounce found that the "upbeat track is filled with bright, happy synths that flutter and buzz about like butterflies around her vocals. Meanwhile, 808s keep everything anchored and allow the addition of trappy drums to not seem jarring. Monica, meanwhile, rides the beat happily as she describes what it's like to love her man [...] It's a sweet sentiment and one that's sure to resonate with all the lovers in the house."[6]
