Composition
“G Walk” is a hip hop and trap track. Mosey delivers melodic verses in a low baritone. Vivid synths, speedy hi-hats and lush piano chords make up the instrumentals, building up the song to Chris Brown’s entrance at the middle. Rhymes like “Hop in the coupe goin’ crazy” and “She see me whip a Mercedes” make up the hook, while Brown's feature completes the track by ending his latter half in high-scaled R&B vocals.https://hypebeast.com/2019/6/lil-mosey-chris-brown-g-walk-song-stream
Critical reception
Rap Up praised Brown's "smooth harmonies" and Mosey's "sing-song delivery to the braggadocious banger".https://www.rap-up.com/2019/06/07/new-music-lil-mosey-chris-brown-g-walk/ HotNewHipHop commented that "With a piano-driven beat and another catchy flow, Lil Mosey starts off the affair with a hook and the first verse. Midway through, Chris Brown can't contain himself as he jumps in for ad-lib duty before dropping his own verse. In his signature way, Breezy flawlessly flexes his vocals in a sing-rap sort of way, complementing Mosey's style and issuing him an important co-sign this early in his career."https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/171311-lil-mosey-and-chris-brown-hit-the-g-walk-as-a-duo-new-song
