Madison Beer released her debut album titled "Life Support" in early 2021. Days before the release of "Life Support", Beer revealed that she was already half way through the new record, and would eventually head  herself to a writing camp to finish the new album, with the same songwriters and producers, with whom she worked on her debut. Composition. According to Beer, "Reckless" is about "how easy it is for some people in relationships to hurt others and move on without any guilt". She both co-wrote and co-produced the single. Critical reception. "Reckless" was met with critical acclaim upon its release. "Clash" called the song "...a wonderfully adult piece of pop songwriting." "Hypebae" said the song "demonstrat[es] her signature soothing vocals." Music video. The music video was released on June 29, 2021. It  depicts Beer in a fairytale-like world where she climbs a ladder to get to the top of a stack of giant books; stands on the top of a car as it drives itself through a tunnel; and swims in an ocean with book pages in it.
