The recording sessions took place at Booga Basement Studio in East Orange, at Chung King Studios, at The Hit Factory and at The Crib in New York, at Joe's Room in Conshohocken, and at Mayfair Studios in London. The production was primarily handled by Forté, as well as Minnesota, Pras, Salaam Remi, Warren Riker and Wyclef Jean.
Critical reception
The Los Angeles Times wrote that "Forte excels with light-hearted subject matter and instrumentation."[3] Rolling Stone concluded that "Forte displays a surer footing writing lyrics than he does on actual rapping; his vocal style flips between JayZ-ish Brooklynisms and the cool-pose sneers of Nas."[6]
