In an interview with the Baltimore magazine, Wallace cited Eminem's breakout success in the late 90s as a major inspiration to him.

[3][non-primary source needed] Wallace graduated from St. Mary's College of Maryland with a degree in political science.

[4] The Straight Outta St. Mary's mixtape was released on April 12, 2006, and was written by E-Dubble and Glaze who were both members of Irishtoothache.

The group went on to purchase a renovated warehouse, dubbed "The Hampden Mansion," where E-dubble would later go on to write, record, and produce his debut album Hip-Hop is Good, released on October 27, 2009.

[12] The series was noted for its effective use of samples, lyrics and E-dubble's spoken word outros, in which he communicated with listeners.

One of the videographers who worked on the video would later say that the rapper was not in the best mental state when filming, but that Wallace "turning what troubles him into light" was one of his most characteristic traits.
