I intend to face several of those dormant issues/topics head-ons in the hopes that others can, at the very least, identify with the spaces I've grown from.The album's production came from multiple contributors such as Eli Brown, Kiran Kai, LeRoyce, lophiile, Monte Booker, Rascal, Renzell, Saba, Tae Beast, Tee-WaTT and Thelonious Martin.

[8] Dean Van Nguyen of Pitchfork scored the album a 7.2 out of 10 saying the rapper "ditches the epic scope and thematic cohesion of those projects for something shorter and more scattered.

"[11] Ben Brutocao of HipHopDX scored the album a 3.4 out of 5 saying "Jenkins showcases his artistic maturity by allowing himself to wander through subversively dense philosophical quandaries packaged neatly as coffee house jazz-hop.
