Description and reception

[edit | edit source]

MTV's Madeline Roth described "Reminds Me" as an "anti-Valentine's song" and an "ice-cold breakup bop", with Petras "spilling her thoughts over a springy R&B beat".[6] Shaad D'Souza of The Fader called the song a "downcast, mid-tempo trap ballad" and the "kind of breakup track that would have fit perfectly on Petras' recent debut album Clarity".[7] Capital FM made a very similar description, also calling the track "steady".[8] Idolator's Mike Nied described the song as a "bop" with "relatable" lyrics, which he said "capture what it feels like to have your heart broken by someone you trusted". Nied said the song has Petras "chasing away memories of an ex" and "[mourning] over a sparse soundscape.[9] Consequence of Sound's Lake Schatz described "Reminds Me" as a "thumpin' tune",[10] and Valerie Stepanova of V Magazine called the song a "beat-heavy breakup bop".[11] Billy Nilles of E! News wrote that the song was "remarkably relatable".[12] Laura Johnson from Stereoboard outlined the song as "beat-heavy, R&B influenced pop track".[13] [check quotation syntax]

"Reminds Me of You" is a song by American rapper Juice Wrld and Australian rapper and singer the Kid Laroi, released on 8 December 2020, via Grade A Productions through exclusive licensing to Interscope Records and marketed by Foundation Media.[14][15]

Background

[edit | edit source]

The song marks their third official collaboration, and it was released on 8 December 2020, which is the one-year anniversary of Juice Wrld's death. About the song, Petras stated:

"Kid Laroi asked to do the song, but also back when we were doing the song, Juice came to the studio and he recorded this amazing verse on "Reminds Me", and had I always, always in the back of my mind hoped it would see the light of day. I've always hoped there was some kind of way his verse could come out so, it’s coming out tonight. I don't feel at all that anyone took anything from anybody, I just think this is giving the song a whole new life."

— Kim Petras, in an Instagram live clip.[16][17]

Composition

[edit | edit source]

On the track, the Kid Laroi and Juice Wrld talk about how everything reminds them of their past lovers and lament how hard it is for them to move on after a failed relationship. The song "re-imagines" Petras' version, "morphing her electro-pop euphoria" into a heartbroken emo-rap song.[18]
