==Composition and lyrics== |
|||
On "Keep It Burnin", Future and West reflect on their upbringings. On the chorus, West raps: "Cross me so much, I got nails in my hand". Future then raps: "Seen too much violence, done seen too much death / Bodies on bodies, got a gang full of them / Raised by gangsters, prostitutes, and pimps".<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.nme.com/news/music/future-releases-new-video-featuring-kanye-west-keep-it-burnin-3215304|title=Future releases new video featuring Kanye West, 'Keep It Burnin"|magazine=[[NME]]|last=Aubrey|first=Elizabeth|date=April 29, 2022|access-date=May 6, 2022}}</ref> West uses his "typical pomp" in the first verse, claiming that he's "comin' from the 'Raq, the home of the drillers".<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/future-i-never-liked-you-1343703/|title=Future is a Platinum-Encrusted Antihero on 'I Never Liked You'|magazine=[[Rolling Stone]]|last=Reeves|first=Mosi|date=April 29, 2022|access-date=May 6, 2022}}</ref> In the next line, he seemingly raps about real events that involve his ex-wife, American model [[Kim Kardashian]]: "I'ma buy a home next to your home if I miss you".<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/kanye-west-future-keep-it-burning-kim-kardashian-video-1235064928/|title=Kanye West Seems to Call Out Kim Kardashian on Future's 'Keep It Burnin': 'Your Mouth Is The Issue'|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]|last=Dailey|first=Hannah|date=April 29, 2022|access-date=May 6, 2022}}</ref> |

==Critical reception== |
|||
Robin Murray of ''[[Clash (magazine)|Clash]]'' described West's feature on "the eerie, dark, paranoid" song as "feral" that followed his involvement on fellow American rapper [[Pusha T]]'s fourth studio album, ''[[It's Almost Dry]]'', which was released exactly one week before "Keep It Burnin" and ''I Never Liked You'', concluding that "its a sign that in spite of the wayward headlines you can never write Yeezy off".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.clashmusic.com/reviews/future-i-never-liked-you|title=Future – I Never Liked You {{!}} Review|work=[[Clash (magazine)|Clash]]|last=Murray|first=Robin|date=April 29, 2022|access-date=May 6, 2022}}</ref> Michael Di Gennaro of ''[[Exclaim!]]'' felt that the song "find[s] Future dialled in, rapping with the urgency of someone on the come-up as opposed to a superstar more than two decades into their career".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://exclaim.ca/music/article/future_i_never_liked_you_album_review|title=Future Is Determined to Stay on Top on 'I NEVER LIKED YOU'|work=[[Exclaim!]]|last=Di Gennaro|first=Michael|date=May 3, 2022|access-date=May 6, 2022}}</ref> In a negative review, ''[[HipHopDX]]'' music critic Anthony Malone opined that the song "offers one of the better Kanye West performances as of late, but it's flat out boring" and "the Kanye/Future chemistry lacks the same dreamy intensity as it did during the ''[[Honest (Future album)|Honest]]''-era".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://hiphopdx.com/reviews/id.3861/title.future-i-never-liked-you-album-review|title=Review – Future 'I Never Liked You' Is Fan Service Held Back By Dull Beats & Marketed Toxicity|work=[[HipHopDX]]|last=Malone|first=Anthony|date=May 5, 2022|access-date=May 5, 2022}}</ref> |
