Transcription
Composition
Lyrically, "Thru Your Phone" is about the protagonist finding explicit conversations on her partner's mobile phone and contemplates revenge on him.[2] A Billboard article deemed the song "the rap equivalent of Jazmine Sullivan's "Bust Your Windows",[3] while a Rolling Stone article noted it as one of the two "most emotionally hardcore" songs in the parent album—the other being "I Do"—that builds on the rage of "Be Careful", and compared it to a doo-wop ballad.[2]
Critical reception
Neil Z. Yeung of AllMusic deemed the track "unflinching and relatable," and considered the vengeance lines where the narrator poisons her cheating man with bleach in his cereal and "a good old-fashioned" stabbing, "cartoonish but real, a confession of thoughts that are all too familiar to the scorned."[4] In NME, Nick Levine stated, "the way she flips from righteous fury to plaintive desperation on "Thru Your Phone", a track about her partner's infidelity, is thrilling and palpably emotional."[5]
