Critical reception[edit]
The Dominion Post's reviewer said that "My Shit" sounds "like an aural business card...[and]...a very weak version of 50 Cent".[5] Jody Macgregor of Allmusic and Rebecca Barry from The New Zealand Herald called the song "a second-rate sequel to...'Not Many'",[6] reusing its theme.[7]
Video[edit]
The music video for "My Shit" was directed by Chris Graham,[8] and premiered on 12 August 2007 on New Zealand music channel C4.[1] The video features many New Zealand celebrities and key locations of downtown Auckland, New Zealand. The end of the video features a short snippet of his second New Zealand release, "F.R.E.S.H.".
Chart performance[edit]
"My Shit" debuted on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number six, rising to its peak position of number four two weeks later. It fell off the chart after a total of nine weeks.[9]
