According to him, the track consistently receives some of the strongest reactions from fans, making it a standout moment in his sets.

The performance was a success. I feel like it’s my favourite song to perform on the album, and my fans love it just as much. Every show we perform, we run it back like four times,” Blacko disclosed.
