Critical response

[edit]

Various people have called the song "trashy", "disgusting", and "creepy".[8] Seventeen magazine describes the song as every girl's texting nightmare with lyrics straight out of the "How to Convince a Girl to Send You Nudes handbook", such as "Send it to my phone, send it to my phone / You already know I keep it on the low / Baby, you can trust me, promise I'm alone / I won't tell a soul, send it to my phone."[7] Some have said the song's lyrics make them feel disgusted.[9]

Others have said that many artists talk about sex and nude photos in their songs all the time, and that Mahone is saying what everyone thinks.[9]
