Composition and lyrics

At 4 minutes and 19 seconds long,[8] "4 da Fam" includes verses from Amil, Jay-Z, Memphis Bleek, and Beanie Sigel.[1] Steve Rivers of Ebony described it as a "crew love record".[14] In her part, Amil brags about her career through the lyrics: "I'm the illest female that you heard thus far."[9] In his verse, Jay-Z raps about becoming a father in the verse: "I got four nephews and they're all writing ... and I'm having a child, which is more frightening."{{efn|During a 2000 interview with Vibe, Jay-Z said that his verse was true and he was expecting a child.[10] Further information was never provided,[11][18] and Rob Markman of MTV News believed the child "was most likely lost through miscarriage".[18]}} Rob Markman of MTV News wrote that fatherhood was a subject that Jay-Z explored from his debut album Reasonable Doubt (1996).[12] Jay-Z's other lyrics include: "Y'all niggas truly ain't ready for this dynasty thing / Y'all thinking Blake Carrington, I'm thinking more like Ming."[13] and "I got 4 nephews, and they all write-ing / They all young and wild, plus they all like Beans."[14]

In a 2018 article, they included "4 da Fam" in their list of the top-100 best Jay-Z songs.[15] John Kennedy of Vulture.com identified the single as an improvement over the track "Pop 4 Roc" from Jay-Z's fourth studio album Vol. 3... Life and Times of S. Carter (1999), and described "4 da Fam" as "the real deal".[16] While critical of Amil, Son Raw of Fact referred to the single as a "prime Roc La Familia-era posse cut".[17] A writer for Bossip criticized Amil's verse, and included her boast as the best female rapper on their list of the top-ten greatest lies in hip hop music.[9]
