Critical reception edit

Meghan Garvey of Pitchfork Media gave the song its "Best New Music" accolade lauding Jeremih's vocal performance, "It’s not a fireworks display or a peak-hour dancefloor filler. You sink into it. Light some candles. Summon the oracle. Late Nights season approaches."[4]

Natalie Weiner of Billboard wrote that Jeremih is "classic" and "crooning" in this song.[5] Writing for the Uproxx, Aspektz called the song production "cloudy" and "lovesick", while Jeremih's vocals "classic".[6]

Live performances edit

In November 2015, Jeremih performed "Oui" at the 2015 Soul Train Music Awards in Las Vegas, Nevada.[7]

Usage in media edit
