"Hot Nigga" was a commercial success, being certified Platinum in the United States.

The song and the video became popular in 2014 among Vine users, which led to the "Shmoney dance" meme (such as "Where They At Tho?", "21", and more).[3] One line from the song, "About a week ago!" appeared in the vast majority of these Vines and played a large role in the spread of the song. In July 2014, Beyoncé did the dance move on a venue of her On the Run Tour.[18] The move was also performed by NFL receiver Brandon Gibson after a touchdown.[19]

Drake used the song while hosting the 2014 ESPY Awards.[20][21]
