"[2][3] The album's title is partially a reference to the commoditization of music, with musicians contractually obliged to provide a certain number of "LP"s; Cope stated "Now I'm not obligated to any record company, so I thought it was a nice play on that.

[1] Cope worked on the album with musicians such as drummer Paul "Buggy" Edwards, legendary bass guitarists Michael "Funky Ned" Neal,[1] and Preston Crump,[1] keyboardist James Poyser (who previously has worked with acts such as The Roots, Jill Scott, and John Legend) and percussionist Bashiri Johnson.

[6] Initial Pressing / Limited Edition B-Sides CD: Alex Henderson of Allmusic gave the album a 3.5/5 rating, calling it "one of Greenwood's more consistent efforts".

[7] In the view of Hays Harris of Richmond.com, "The mix of rock, folk, blues and hip-hop elements" on the album formed "a defining portrait of considerable depth".

[8] Nancy Dunham of The Washington Examiner described it as an album that is "easy to fall in love with", calling it "Cope at his finest".
