700 Reasons is the debut mixtape by American rapper Montana 700. It was released on February 7, 2025, via Remain Solid / 300 Entertainment. The mixtape features guest appearances from BigXthaPlug, Tee Grizzley, Hunxho, Peezy, and longtime collaborator Zillionaire Doe. It also features production from record producers such as Chopsquad DJ, ZiggyMadeIt, and Fuelz.
The mixtape was part of a series of projects released in early 2025 by the "main faces" of the emerging "New Dallas" movement, sandwiched in between Zillionaire Doe’s D Boi Dreams in January and HeadHuncho Amir's STILL AIN NUN BIGGER in May.[2][3]
700 Reasons marked Montana 700's debut mixtape, following the 2024 release of "70042", a collaborative album with Zillionaire Doe. In a promotional video posted to his Instagram account, Montana 700 popped champagne with his friends in front of a mural and declared that he could finally make a living off music.[4]
Composition
The mixtape comprises 15 songs, some of which had been previously released. It includes a remix of Montana 700's hit song "Pipeline", featuring fellow Dallas rapper BigXthaPlug.[4][5]
In an interview with the Dallas Observer, Montana 700 said that "Robert Horry" was the most meaningful song on the album for him, explaining:
To do what I’m doing is like winning a championship in the streets. To be able to switch lanes, find another way to make money, feed your family, and build generational wealth, that’s like winning a championship. I’m the last one. All my partners are dead or in jail. I can count on my fingers how many partners I have left. I ain’t over 25. I had partners since I was 15.[4]
Title and packaging
The mixtape's title refers to the 700 block of Ivywood Drive in Dallas, which was "where it all started" for Montana 700. In a similar tribute, the front cover was shot at his local corner store while the back cover was shot at the gravesite of Mark Dean Burnough, a close friend of his who died in 2017 at the age of 17.[4]
