"Moment of Your Life" is a song by American R&B singer Brent Faiyaz, released on August 24, 2023 as the lead single from his debut mixtape Larger than Life (2023).

Composition
The song depicts the singers as lovers looking to spend a memorable evening together,[1][2] particularly one that involves sex.[3] It opens with Brent Faiyaz admiring his partner's beauty and desiring an intimate encounter.[2] He wants to tell other women about the pleasures of the moment so they would follow her example.[3] Coco Jones sings from the woman's perspective, complimenting him as well and showing her promiscuous side even though she seems to be a well-behaved person.[2][3] The bridge features a call and response section between the two.[4]
Critical reception
Zachary Horvath of HotNewHipHop wrote that the song's theme is "brought up a lot, especially in R&B music, but this cut is so well done. It runs just over three minutes but Brent Faiyaz and Coco Jones fill out the time perfectly."[3] Elaina Bernstein of Hypebeast remarked "Faiyaz and Jones have an otherworldly musical compatibility, evident in the pair's effortless ability to layer and complement one another silky-smooth vocals throughout the three-minute track. Both artists' buttery vocals blend together on the chorus: 'And I got every other thing that I need and want but you / And I've been wanting you, so what you wanna do / Tonight? / Make this the moment of your life.'"[4]
