Critical reception

Shawnee Smith, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that the song sports a "better chorus and aggressive, synth-soaked beats" that their previous single, "Mr. Vain". She goes on to say that the song is a "blend of party-down male rapping and cute female-belting is familiar and fun."

The music video of "Got to Get It" was directed by Matt Broadley. It was filmed in Algarve, Portugal and in Denmark.
