Critical reception


Alex Henderson from AllMusic noted that the song "decries the evils of materialism".[3] Larry Flick from Billboard described it as a "smokin', rock-flavored hip-hopper, empowered with a more biting, worldly edge than on past efforts." He added that "periodic rushes of metallic guitars slice through a fat groove, and underscore Cherry's well-seasoned singing and rapping."[4] David Browne from Entertainment Weekly noted that on "brazen tracks" like ”Money Love”, Cherry "still knows how to throw down with the best of them."[5]

Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report commented, "Grappling with the age-old dilemma of money vs. love is made all the more compelling set to a funky, rockin' beat."[6] A reviewer from Music & Media stated that the singer's "position at the top of innovative pop is reaffirmed. A guitar riff on a dance record, hey that's uncommon! Rockers here's your chance to steal a sample back, instead of the other way round."[7] James Hamilton from Music Week's RM Dance Update called it a "jerkily surging pop chugger".[8]
