Composition


In contrast to the previous single "Black Summer," "Poster Child" exhibits a more funk rock sound.[2] At NME, Alex Gallagher described the song as being "even more groove-heavy instrumental than usual."[3]


Critical reception


Robin Murray at Clash Music gave the song a positive review, stating "'Poster Child' is the dream tune for Chili Pepper fans, both stylistically and lyrically encapsulating the funkadelic energy of the band whilst inviting listeners to reminisce over poster children and those who have shaped pop culture throughout the 20th century."[4]
