Guest features come from the likes of Timaya's protege Attitude, Squeeze, Bukwild Da Ikwerrian, Knowledge, Young Stunna and more. Slim Burna sings about a wide range of subject matters, such as everyday life and struggles, social issues, sex, drugs, love and the ambition to be successful.

Generally, it's a glimpse of life from the perspective of young, self-assured Gabriel Halliday. NB: The previously released mixtape front cover has been altered to display just one logo (the P.A sticker). The rest of the logos can now be found on the tape's back cover.
