Reception
Miles Raymer of the Chicago Reader wrote about "I Like It" that, "I'm not saying that front man Eric Sean Nally or anyone else in Foxy Shazam is racist. But their song is definitely racist." He said that the song is not "pro-black woman" but "pro-big black ass", and that "the lines about 'my gangsta girl' who uses 'sexy, street-talkin' slang' are straight-up Fetishizing the Other, which comes with the baggage of several hundred years of gruesome treatment of black women."
Music video
A music video directed by Bill Fishman was released online on 6 February 2012.
It was filmed at the First German Reformed Church in Cincinnati, Ohio, which keyboardist Sky White had purchased with two other friends. For the video, Foxy Shazam invited fans to come dressed up as Time Warp dancers from Rocky Horror Picture Show or as 90's club kids.
