The song was polarizing to audiences, featuring strong orchestral synths, but received generally favorable critic reviews, and was considered by some among the most complex and ambitious of all the tracks on The Melodic Blue. Kendrick Lamar's participation was noted by one critic as "bizarre and unconventional for a rapper of his status", but also potentially "innovating toward something new". His use of ad libs and repetitions of the phrases "Let's get this shit" and "top of the mornin became viral online and sparked internet memes. Vulture called the song Kendrick's first main new attraction in years, saying "Range Brothers finds Lamar trading bars with Keem about all the money and girls he doesn't know what to do with, along with contributing some playful vocals in the song."
