Pitchfork Media commented on the track by saying 'If the heyday of disco had produced a rapper, it might have been Atlanta's Trinidad James. When he talks about gold-- he's obsessed with it-- it's not so much about status as it is about sheer flamboyance. 'I'm too fly/ You know this/ Let me give your ass a checklist', he raps on All Gold Everything, the letter s slithering off his tongue around a slow, exaggerated ripple of a beat. The track comes from his mixtape Don't Be S.A.F.E., an excellent debut that toggles seamlessly between snaggle-toothed drug talk, flashy boasts and earnest self-deprecation.'[11]
Music video[edit]
The music video was directed by Motion Family and premiered on MTV Jams on November 18, 2012.[12] As of August 2017, the music video has over 30 million views on YouTube.[13]
