Background and composition

The EP is the follow-up of Landmines which was released in 2016. In an interview with HipHopDX, J57 revealed that the self-produced 8-track project comprises songs which could not make the cut for his upcoming album and thought they "were too good to go to waste", hence the release of the EP.[4] The EP sees J57 rap about personal issues as evidenced in "My Resolution", "Sometimes" and "Same Old Jimmy", backed with hardcore hip hop sounds and a bit of jazz as seen in "Listening to Axelrod".[5]
