[21] Veteran continues JPEGMafia's trend of referencing elements of popular culture, political and social issues, which he considers a presentation of an internet-dominated era.
[c] Analyzed Paul A. Thompson of Pitchfork, the rapper borrows the evocative language of artists like MC Ren, Ice Cube, and Eazy-E, and brings in the irony and bad-faith argumentation of usual internet discussion.
[22] Topics include political unrest, feminism, hipsterism ("Real Nega"), the flaws of liberalism ("Libtard Anthem"), and gentrification ("Whole Foods", "Williamsburg").
[e] Individuals and institutions lambasted on the record include online critics, publications such as Dead End Hip Hop and Pitchfork, the alt-right, Whole Foods Market, neoliberals, Morrissey, SoundCloud rappers, Bill Maher, and Kellyanne Conway.
[25] On "Rock N Roll Is Dead", the rapper, in expressing his distrust of the mainstream press, threatens to "put hands on a blogger" and "make 'em beg for his life".
"[21] On "Williamsburg", JPEGMafia condemns the gentrification of his hometown of Brooklyn over a beat with a sound reflecting the cold and empty feeling of the economic trend; he argues that he is "selling art to these yuppies" and makes fun of the wealthy's penchant for overpriced coffee and Phoenix Suns shirts.
[g] Thompson, in his 7.7/10 review for Pitchfork, praised the album as "a remarkable exercise in sound and texture", reasoning that it "takes white-hot riffs and the most distasteful parts of our national politics, chops them up, and somehow scatters them perfectly into place".
