Composition

The song features "mournful noir" saxophone in the production[1] and contains a sample of "Whole Lotta Something Goin' On" by Raphael Ravenscroft.[2] Lyrically, Beanie Sigel poignantly reflects on his troubled life, rapping about his feelings and paranoia regarding it.[3]

Critical reception

In a review of The B. Coming, Andrew Friedman of Riverfront Times wrote, "The best of the melancholy tracks is a bizarre anti-single: 'Feel It in the Air' pits Beanie against a sax and his own thug spider-sense."[4]
