In the US, "The Box" was the biggest song of the first half of 2020, selling 4.7 million equivalent units as of July 2, 2020.[12] Apple Music named it Song of the Year.[13] It received three nominations at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, including for Song of the Year.[14]
Background and composition
"The Box" was the last song Ricch made for Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial.[6] It was recorded in roughly 15 minutes[1] in the early morning hours in New York after Ricch had been recording all night.[6] The song begins with a "triumphant introduction that amounts to an orchestral swell", which many listeners attributed to as a sample of the intro on "Love Sex Magic" by Ciara.[15] However, the song's producer, 30 Roc, has insisted that though similar, the "swell" is not a sample of "Love Sex Magic", explaining: "It is not a sample. It's really a VST [plug-in] using Omnisphere [production software]."[15] Ricch said he decided to place "The Box" as track two on the album, because "it just bangs [and] the 808s hit so hard".[16]
The song's intro contains a "squeaky sound", known as the "eee err" sound, which is also heard throughout the rest of the song. According to Atlantic Records A&R Keefa Black, after the song was finished, Ricch said "Wait let me add something", and came up with the sound himself.[17] Speaking on where the inspiration for the sound came from, he said "I seen Michael Jackson do it...That's what made me want to do it. Cause he was in the studio one time and he was talking about some song that he made but he started beatboxing and he said he put that in the beat".[18] The squeaky sound has inspired many memes online.[19] Musicologist and Northeastern University professor of music Andrew Mall said the "eee err" sound is not exactly the most interesting component of the song's beat, instead pointing out Ricch's skill as a songwriter: "I'm really taken by the atmospheric synths that underpin the track and provide the central harmonic component, particularly since there is no bass to speak of aside from a pitched bass drum sample". Regarding Ricch's craft as a writer, Mall noted "the fact that he retains writing credit here and on several other tracks that are charting, including those where he is a featured artist, speaks to a strong business savvy on his part".[20]
Vulture's Paul Thompson said Ricch "raps with verve", calling the song "strange and eccentric", while noting Ricch's vocal versatility in the song, writing, he "moves easily between vocal modes, sounding defiant ('I won't ever sell my soooooouuuuuullllll, and I can back that'), conspiratorial ('Got a bitch that's looking like Aaliyah — she a model'), or playful — like when he cackles unnervingly at the beginning of the second verse".[7] The song's title has been noted as being a possible reference to jail ("the box" being a slang term for "jail").[19]
Critical reception
Along with the tracks "Boom Boom Room" and "Start wit Me" featuring Gunna, Darryl Robertson of Vibe felt that "The Box" is "further proof that the Atlantic Records-signee can pen addictive radio-friendly records".[21] Josh Svetz of HipHopDX echoed a similar sentiment, writing that "The appeal to Roddy is simple; the kid can write a hell of a hook. Whether it's the head-bopping harmony on 'The Box' or the flute backed, Gunna-assisted single, 'Start Wit Me,' Roddy excels at producing choruses that stick and only get better with repeat listens."[22] Writing for Pitchfork, Alphonse Pierre stated that on the song, which features a "hard-hitting beat that sounds like a teapot is boiling in the background, [Ricch] finds a new delivery and pitch nearly every 10 seconds. The track is the best example of Roddy's versatility, which has been both a blessing and a curse."[23]
Praising the song, HotNewHipHop's Mitch Findlay asserted that although its parent album "yielded plenty of highlights, none stood out quite so much as 'The Box'". Findlay called the song's "EEE ERR" intro "creative and soon-to-be-iconic" and labeled Ricch's flow as confident and charismatic.[10] Heran Mamo of Billboard opined that Ricch "comes armed and ready with his verses despite the rather lighthearted 'hee-hoo' ad-libs in the background". Mamo noted that in the song, Ricch raps about acquiring and protecting "his necessary riches".[24]
Commercial performance
"The Box" spent eleven weeks at the top spot of the US Billboard Hot 100,[25][26] after debuting at number 47 on the issue dated December 21, 2019, and reaching number one four weeks later, becoming Ricch's first number one on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as the first new song to top the chart in the 2020s decade—since both "All I Want for Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey and "Circles" by Post Malone began their runs at the top position in 2019. During the same week, the song logged its second week at number one on Billboard's Streaming Songs chart (drawing 68.2 million streams) and jumped to number eight on the Digital Songs chart as well, with 11,000 downloads sold. Additionally, the song reached the top spot on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts as well, becoming Ricch's first number-one song on both charts.[27][25]
Music video
The song's audio video was released on December 6, 2019,[28] while a lyric video was uploaded on January 10, 2020,[4] the former accumulating over 273 million views on YouTube as of December 19, 2020.
The song's official music video premiered on YouTube on February 28, 2020 and has over 160 million views as of June 2020. It was directed by Ricch, with co-direction by Christian Breslauer, who also directed Ricch's previous two music videos, for "Boom Boom Room" and "Tip Toe".[29][30] Ricch explained via Twitter the reason why the video took a "lil time" to be released was because he directed it.[31]
Synopsis and concept
The "action-packed"[30][32] video starts with Ricch speeding in a "super charged" muscle car[32] in a "Fast & Furious-style street race".[30] During the race, Ricch turns on his turbos and "outdrives his opponent who eventually crashes and burns, leaving Ricch the victor of the contest".[32] The video then cuts to a basketball game, where Ricch is seen scoring the game-winning shot, "flying" in the air, akin to NBA icon Michael Jordan,[32] with what MTV's Madeline Roth called an "impressive (and definitely far-fetched)" slam dunk.[30] Ricch is then seen carrying out a major bank heist.[32] Multiple scenes reference the song's lyrics, such as when Ricch delivers a speech from the White House,[30] alluding to the line "I'm a 2020 presidential candidate". Halle Kiefer of Vulture noted a theme in the video: "the visual follows Ricch's unstoppable success as it takes him to surreal lengths, whether it be lounging on a bed suspended over sharks, casually walking up the side of a building or dancing in front of an explosive game of chicken".[33] The video concludes with Ricch inside a glass box, "preserved for future generations inside a museum exhibit".[33]
