Critical reception
Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating: "[Stryder's] latest effort picks up smoothly where last year's 'You're Not Alone' left off. Thankfully, its combination of relatable rhymes and hazy summer synths ensure his formula remains both timely and fresh, resulting in another surefire radio smash."{{cite web|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/singlesreviews/a251974/tinchy-stryder-in-my-system.html|publisher=digitalspy.co.uk|author=Robert Copsey|title=Tinchy Stryder: 'In My System'}}
