"'GTFO'" (an abbreviation for "Get the fuck out") is a song by American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey. On September 13, 2018, Epic Records released the song as a promotional single from Carey's fifteenth studio album 'Caution'. "GTFO" was written by Carey, Bibi Bourelly, Porter Robinson, Paul "Nineteen85" Jeffries and Jordan Manswell, with the latter two also producing the song. It samples Porter Robinson's 2014 song "Goodbye to a World".

Carey announced "GTFO" would be the first promotional single from her then upcoming fifteenth studio album with the release via press release.

Critical reception



Israel Daramola from 'Spin' was positive, calling it a "ghostly, tender record with a magnetic rhythm". Randall Colburn from 'Consequence of Sound' praised Carey's vocal performance and the song's instrumentation, noting "the song's dreamy flow clashes compellingly." R. Eric Thomas of 'Elle' was also positive stating the track was "[a] sultry mid-tempo addition", noted that song "enters a grand tradition of songs about being told to get out." 'Billboard' editor Gil Kaufman described the song's production as "spiky". It was included at number 59 on 'Idolator's list of the 100 best singles of 2018, and at number 92 on NPR's list of the 100 best songs of 2018.
