Critical reception
"No Role Modelz" received mixed reviews from music critics. Craig Jenkins of Pitchfork Media said "No Role Modelz" parlays a suspicion about a hook-up being a golddigger into a tirade about reality T.V women lacking respectable public figures crudely suggesting that "she's shallow but the pussy deep." 2014 Forest Hills Drive often plays at a depth it never delivers."[5]
