Bad Bunny later shared his reaction on the trend on the platform, which sees him in tears.
"DTMF" is a "nostalgic" track that blends "Nintendo-inspired beats", reminiscent of his 2020 album YHLQMDLG, with "lively Plena", a Puerto Rican "folk call-and-response" genre. On a "mellow beat" with occasional choir chants, Bad Bunny displays his emotions and regrets not having taken more pictures of loved ones or people with whom he had spent periods of time.
In a ranking of all album tracks for Billboard, editors placed it sixth, saying that the song reminds listeners to value "the meaningful aspects of life" over superficiality.
