Background and release
Two days prior to release, Joyryde uploaded a preview for his next single to various social media platforms, including Instagram and Twitter. The preview announced that the song was titled "Yuck" and was to feature Chicago-based rapper Gold as vocals and including a quote from the song, saying "Not a world of words, but of things that you cannot express."
On 22 March 2019, the song was released as a digital download on international digital stores, as well as being released through various music streaming services. The song was released as the second single for Joyryde's debut album 'Brave', following the release of the first single "I'm Gone" in February.

Critical reception
"Yuck" was well received by most critics. Writing for 'Billboard', Koury Angelo wrote that the song took Joyryde's signature "dark house and runs it through mechanical whirs and tinny 808s." 'Dancing Astronaut's Bella Bagshaw called the song one of Joyryde's "most lurid releases to date", writing that the song artists "use the track to rendezvous within the notion of keeping ones head down while remaining devoted to an artistic endeavour in order to foster and maintain a sense of individualism in the process." Peach Gallagher of 'Run the Trap' praised the song's quality, writing that Joyryde "turns the party into a riot with god-like production skills that command listeners to kick it up a notch." Writing for 'Your EDM', Karlie Powell praised the song, noting its mix of hip hop, bass, and trap music and writing that Joyryde "proves yet again that hes the master of bass-driven, genre-bending certified slappers."
