Critical receptionWriting for Stylus Magazine, Andrew Unterberger said the song is "resoundingly meh" with "a thoroughly OK production with some grating vocals" from k-os, and then favors another new track from Singles 93–03, "The Golden Path."[3] In complete contrast, David Medsker from PopMatters prefer the song over "The Golden Path", called it their "first real hip-hop track" that "demands its listeners to drop and do the worm." He also stated: "[...] There’s something about the key, a combination of a major note and its sharp, that sticks in the craw. This will sound very cool in the clubs."[4] musicOMH's Jamie Harper said the song "goes into new territory, as [the duo] invite Canadian rapper K-OS to MC over their creation."[5] A new version of the song appeared on their live album Don't Think received a positive feedback from Nate Patrin of Pitchfork Media, he stated: "It all flows so smoothly so immediately that tracks which felt like late-career missteps on album-- like overstuffed pigeon-toed funk oddities like "Do It Again" and "Get Yourself High", which show up in succession in the set's first 10 minutes—come across as all-hook monsters, fused in a way that splits the difference and shaves off all the fat."[6] Music video![]() The song's music video was directed by Joseph Kahn, and consisted of digitally manipulated footage from the 1980 Hong Kongese martial arts film 2 Champions of Shaolin.
