Composition edit
Winston Cook-Wilson called the song an "upbeat trap anthem featuring some unpredictable flows from the rapper and a catchy vocal sample". Future sings about his lifestyle of jewelry, lean and most notably, flying on a private jet.[2][3]
Critical reception edit
Tom Breihan of Stereogum compared the song to Future's previous single "Crushed Up", writing, "Where 'Crushed Up' was generic Future, the new 'Jumpin On A Jet' is something closer to peak-capacity Future. It's still an example of the man operating within his comfort zone — Auto-Tuned melodies, moody trap beat, vaguely soul-destroyed conspicuous-consumption lyrics. But it shows us a Future with more energy and urgency than usual, and it's got hooks working for it, too."[4]
Music video edit
The music video was uploaded on YouTube on January 8, 2019, the day before the single was released. Directed by Colin Tilley, the video shows with Future climbing a ladder into the heavens and hijacking a plane with a crew.[5][6] They proceed to throw the cargo out and embark on an expedition to another planet.[3][7] Future is seen rapping on the other planet, and performing along with a group of "lovely female dancers".[6]
