YoungBoy's in-house producer Jason "Cheese" Goldberg mixed, mastered, and engineered every track on the mixtape.

The album also features production from many prestigious producers such as Drum Dummie, JahDaGod, Leor Shevah, TayTayMadeIt, and Wheezy.

The review was concluded as Simpson stated that the mixtape consists "of concise, aggressive blasts of energy," and "is one of YoungBoy's more potent efforts.

Smith felt that while "He's not always fast or especially clever in his wordplay", "YoungBoy's bars are frequently dense, delivered with an almost demonic energy; he crams his words into spaces where other rappers might need a breath."
