## Critical reception

GRM Daily wrote, "[S-X] showcases his faultless vocals over a melodic and instantaneous beat and it's safe to say that his first release in over 8 months is a certified hit." Sam Rasmin of Creative Generation UK wrote, "S-X has delivered yet another incredible vocal performance, which matched with a gripping instrumental, makes for an exciting new release." Rock 'N' Load Magazine wrote, "S-X is leading us out of summer with an undeniable track, which is set to be a hit." 1883 Magazine acclaimed that "S-X more than proven himself as a confident and powerful artist".

## Music video

The music video for "Dangerous" premiered on S-X's YouTube channel on 18 September 2020. The video was co-directed by Troy Roscoe and Danyl Goodall. 1883 Magazine wrote, "In the music video, S-X finds himself in a multi-dimensional world of haunted mansions with a witchy-like cult, a dinner gathering full of deranged guests, and a spider that looks eerily familiar to S-X. With a Stranger Things-esque theme throughout the music video, it's clear that the inspiration behind 'Dangerous' is the danger that comes when you entangle love with deceit." The video features a cameo appearance from British YouTuber and rapper KSI. A behind-the-scenes video of the music video shoot was released to S-X's YouTube channel on 29 September 2020.
