Composition

According to a critic, "Money Bag" shows off the rapper's "stone-cold strut".[2] Lyrically, she boasts about her growing riches over "cavernous" production.[3][4]

Critical reception

Karas Lamb of Entertainment Weekly opined it "eviscerates detractors who have tried to play her cheap."[5] In HipHopDX, Trent Clark wrote that the song is an "aggressively fun performance that neatly checks all the Cardi persona boxes."[6] Clayton Pardum of The A.V. Club stated the rapper is "at her best detonating over cavernous production, as she does on the shit-talk extravaganza ['Money Bag']."[7] Ben Beaumont-Thomas of The Guardian wrote, "the gigantic 'Money Bag' [...] rides a slow, caustic electro backing towards the album's most eyepop-emoji punchline: 'I don't understand what this hate is about / How you gon' suck yo man dick with my name in yo mouth?'".[8]

Live performances

Cardi B performed "Money Bag" with The Roots on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.[9][10] The instrumental for the song was used for the piano starting at Cardi's performance of her song "Money" at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.
