Pretty cool. I like the drum-and-bass style percussion. Cool vocal performance too. Not a lover of the auto-tune at the start, though. Auto-tune can be used well (e.g. Kanye's "Blood on the Leaves"), but here it sounds a little grating IMO. Otherwise, it's good. The amount of Auto-Tune was done deliberately, and this is a moment where "Tropes are Not Bad". You see, the singer is by herself great, but her voice alone is not enough to fit so nicely with the song. That's why it's Auto-Tuned, to give it a certain effect and make the song great.

Like Auto-Tune should be used. To give the voice special effects, instead of going the American route and using it to fix one's horrible singing voice.
