the song was met with mixed reviews from music critics. jon pareles and jon caramanica of "the new york times" commented that "rihanna shares the mechanized, chattering beat of "raining men" with nicki minaj, singing and rapping about an endless supply of available men". stacey anderson of "spin" commented that the song is the highlight of the album, calling it "a gloriously eccentric collaboration with nicki minaj that entwines their minor-key hyperventilating, air sirens dissolving into mind-melting bass, and the scene-stealing minaj's breathless contortion of the simple word 'really' into its own fully demented sideshow". bbc music also commended minaj's presence on the song, saying that "nicki minaj makes for a superb partner in crime on raining men, her wild, kinetic flow complementing rihanna’s steely delivery to wicked effect". jim farber for "new york daily news" said that "rihanna pairs just as well with nicki minaj, on a complete tear-down on the old weather girls disco standard 'it's raining men.' here it's not a gay song of lust but a statement of assurance that no man should incite too much worry, considering their sheer numbers". chris richards of "the washington post" said that "nicki minaj, a quick-witted rapper able to assume the voices of a dozen characters in a single song, fails to impart any wisdom on her colleague with "raining men". emily mackay of "nme" said that "raining men" is a bold collaboration between rihanna and minaj, which plays to both of their strengths in the "hip-pop" collaboration.
