Release and composition

It was an honor and pleasure working with someone I'm so close to as a friend, who I also have tremendous respect for as an artist. I'm proud of this song.

"Money Showers" is hip hop and R&B track.[3][1] While talking about the song in an interview with Billboard magazine, Remy Ma said; "'Money Showers' to me means being bestowed with an unlimited amount of everything; an excess of everything whether materialistic, emotional, sexual -- like total ecstasy".[1]

Critical reception

Jessie Morris from Complex wrote; "The song if fueled by a very smooth, R&B beat that makes it feel like the trio is channeling their old school sound. As always, Ma's hard-hitting bars provide the perfect offset to Joe's verses while Ty Dolla Sign polishes the whole thing from the background with some incredibly silky ad-libs."[4] Emmanuel C.M. of XXL wrote that the song "sounds like it’s going to find it’s way on the charts too".[5] Rap-Up praised Ty Dolla Sign's vocals saying that he "lays down some smooth melodies".[6] OnSMASH wrote; "TY$ delivers a fire hook as usual, while Fat Joe and Remy Ma do what they do on the verse side of things."[7]
