Background

According to Classified, he spent a long time working on the album and describes it as his magnum opus and most authentic project to date. He says "This album feels like what I've been working towards my whole career.......It took me longer than any other album, it's more personal and I got to work with my heroes in hip-hop. I'm excited to get this out to the fans who have listening to me since day one and the newer listeners who just started listening."[6] In October 2015, he announced he will be going on tour across Canada in support of the album.
