Background
Big Sean and Metro Boomin teased the song on social media shortly before the release, without mentioning 21 Savage's feature and keeping it a surprise.[1][2]
Composition
The song, described as "jumpy" and uptempo,[3] finds Big Sean and 21 Savage rapping about "what they're capable of when they show up to the scene".[4] It contains references to the video game GoldenEye 007, as well as a sample of a gunshot from the game.[5]
Critical reception
The song received generally positive reviews. Kevin Goddard of HotNewHipHop gave the song a "Very Hot" rating and commented, "This shit hard!"[6] Nicolaus Li of Hypebeast wrote, "'Pull Up N Wreck' features a simple hook and infectious beat".[2] Likewise, Tom Breihan of Stereogum described the song as having a "truly sticky hook".[3] In an otherwise negative review of Double or Nothing, Trent Clark wrote, "With the exception of the 21 Savage-featuring 'Pull Up N Wreck,' which packs a massive beat, none of the records indicate there's enough chemistry between the two All-Star artists to deserve a full-length offering."[7]
Contrarily, Vince Rick of HotNewHipHop wrote that the song "belongs more to 21 Savage than to Sean, and highlights the incompatibility between artist and producer."[8]
