A writer for ''Jaguda'' said: "One first listen, VIP sounds eerily similar to Aboki. If I didn’t see the name, I would’ve thought it was a remix sorta."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jaguda.com/2013/04/24/new-music-ice-prince-vip-gimme-dat-ft-burna-boy-yung-l-olamide/ )〕 Aribaba, another writer for ''Jaguda'' gave the song 5 out of 10 stars, adding: "My first thought (as well as that of many others) was that, this song sounds just like Aboki. Now it’s one thing to “stick with the same style”, but it’s another thing to photocopy and song and change a few things about it. I’m an Ice Prince fan, but I must say I was kinda disappointed. Paper chasing tactics I guess. Now with that being said, the song will probably still do well, and as a stand alone song it’s actually good. The beat is solid from ChopStix, and Ice price style stays the same (obviously) and the chorus is nice, just like with Aboki. It’s just not fresh and doesn’t get one excited."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jaguda.com/2013/04/28/two-to-review-gunzz-broken-heart-ice-prince-vip/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「V.I.P (Ice Prince song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
