Critical reception

Anna Gaca of Spin called it "a short, bombastic number with echoing drums and equal parts club-ready sultriness and onomatopoeia kiss-off."^[2] Idolator's Rachel Sonis labeled it "feisty" and went on to say that "it's playful, bubbly, and a perfect number to serve as her first official single in the US."^[3]

Music video

A music video for the song premiered on September 12, 2016 and directed by Kinga Burza. The video features Dua Lipa and other women going out for a night on the town, waving signs that say "Dua for President", an LGBT flag and dancing in the Barbican Estate in London.^[4][5]
