Critical reception

gave the following review of the song: "When he's not high as a kite, it seems B.o.B. has quite the interest in the arts. "She says that I'm her favourite, cause she admires the art - Of Michelangelo with the flow," he declares on his latest single 'So Good' - and the referencing of history's finest artists doesn't stop there. "Picasso with the bars, She's well put together like a piece by Gershwin," he adds about his latest love interest over an easy-going mix of chilled piano and head-nodding beats. While it's an ambitious claim to glide high with Renaissance figureheads, B.o.B's fun-loving attitude and care-free coolness does evoke a certain popular Michelangelo - if we're talking about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles version, that is."

The song debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, on the week of March 10, 2012, at number eleven, with 164,000 downloads on the week of release.
