==Music and composition==
In an exclusive statement to Billboard, Candy says that the song came out of a four-day writing session with artists Ashnikko and Oscar Scheller. “We went in knowing that we wanted to make something that felt like a stripper anthem...something that made you feel good and want to dance, but also something that was highly sexual in nature, promotes the divine feminine and speaks to how important women are in helping human sexuality evolve.”https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/8518530/brooke-candy-charli-xcx-maliibu-miitch-xxxtc
Brooke Candy during the Track by Track for Billboard:
“Getting Charli and Maliibu to collaborate with me was really special. Maliibu is like the Foxy Brown of our generation. She has such cool inflections in her voice and she’s such a good rapper and she writes everything herself. When I mentioned the track to Charli, I said “the song is called XXXTC and you’re Charli XCX, so you might as well be on it.” And she was like, “Uh, I don’t know about that, but honestly the song is good so I’ll do it.” When I'm performing it without her, people already know her entire verse, so all I have to do is hold the microphone out into the audience and they will all sing it. Her fans love her so much. Once the lyrical content gets to her verse, everyone screams, “Orange Tesla!” I love it.”https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/8540598/brooke-candy-sexorcism-track-interview

==Critical reception==
Billboard opined: “On Tuesday (July 2), Candy released her new single “XXXTC” featuring Charli XCX and Maliibu Miitch, off of her upcoming album Sexorcism. The raunchy song sees Candy refusing to hold back, talking about drugs, sex and female empowerment. “Next to me, no regrets/ I'm a sex witch, fat pussy hex,” she raps on the track. Candy then unveiled the track's official video on Monday (July 23).
Collaborators Charli and Miitch get their own verses, with Miitch delivering fans with her personal brand of bossed-up bars, while Charli offers one of her rare rap verses as she oozes confidence, proclaiming, “Fucked up, but I'm flawless/ Brooke's ass, throw it back, Cloud Aura.” (Charli doesn't appear in the video, but it's fun nonetheless.)”https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/8518530/brooke-candy-charli-xcx-maliibu-miitch-xxxtc
==Music video==
“Working on this video with Dejan and Luke was such an amazing experience,” says Brooke. “I love making music and visuals from start to finish; from making the song, finding the right features, pulling references for the video once we’ve established the overall vibe, and then editing and making teasers.”https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/brooke-candy-charli-xcx-maliibu-miitch-xxxtc-video/
