Critical reception
David Jeffries of AllMusic highlighted it and overviewed it positively: "Still in the club, "Throw That" sits in the same booth but seeking "higher mileage" with "I throw this, I throw this dick on you girl" as its brutish hook." Slava Kuperstein of HipHopDX thought that the song was skippable. Phillip Mlynar of Spin was acclaiming noting that it expertly channels the disorderly energy of iconic late-'90s Tunnel-era anthems. DJBooth noted that "You don’t have Em on the hook of a stripper anthem like Throw That without some hit aspirations" and critic thought that the song was "squeezed in a box."
