The EP opens with a spoken intro which is a poem, written by author Aeni, while R&B singer Marsha Ambrosius produces the tracks melody.
The EP finishes with JoJo's "gospel-inflected" rendition of the "spiritual" 1991 song "Glory" inspired by opera singer Kathleen Battle.
[9] Following its surprise release, JoJo performed tracks from the EP for the first time live at the 2014 South by Southwest music festival on March 15.
[10][11] her second live performance of the tracks was on March 22, 2014, during VH1's Save the Music Foundation's "Family Day",[12] and that same night at Perez Hilton's birthday party.
Sam Lansky from Time magazine said that the EP sees JoJo "interpreting classic songs with inventive production and, as ever, chill-inducing vocals".
[3] Joe Hopkins of UK online magazine Hit the Floor gave the mixtape a 9/10 rating, writing, "JoJo's voice has clearly developed from her 'Leave (Get Out)' days but still remains light and delicate."
