Mike Nied from Idolator called "Throw a Fit" a "brazen and brag-heavy anthem" and noted Tinashe's "divalicious attitude" in the song. Billboard's Sofia Mele described Tinashe's alter-ego "Nashe" as "an icy diva with attitude" and overall the song as a "bratty single", in reference to the alter-ego.
