## Music and lyrics

No Hard Feelings includes skits that "pull together a loose narrative that finds Dreezy at the center of a love triangle with a philandering boyfriend and a new would-be beau." Musicwise, the first half of the album is filled with hardcore drill beats while the other half showcases Dreezy's vocal abilities.
"We Gon Ride" is a "best friend anthem, perfect for newly singled friends who want to hit the town." "Body" is a "candy-coated duet" produced by BloodPop. "Wasted" is a "vivid piece of micro-storytelling about the imperfect dealings with relationships and alcohol."
