Reception
Critical reception
The song received mostly positive reviews, in which the media highlighted it above the other songs on the album even without being released as an official single. The website jenesaispop.com described it as: "a new alcoholic and addictive Peso Pluma's anthem, as full of melancholy as it is of brass and guitar. [...] it has such a hedonistic cut in its invitation to enjoy the present , as if simultaneously sad in its humming and main melody".[6] Music site Pitchfork wrote: "(the song) puts a spin on the classic corrido with references to Grand Theft Auto, Instagram and influencer culture." The publication also described it as "a 'sad boy' southern rap song about how money can buy everything, plus a genuine connection (between the singers)".[7] The Sónica site named it as the "song of the summer".[8]
