The project is Redd's sixth and Wop's first EP. It received unanimous critical praise.[1][2][3]
Background and promotion
The EP was a surprise release,[1] and was released just days after Lil Wop's project Wopavelli 3.[3]
On June 19, 2017, in an interview with Precise Earz, Trippie Redd and Wop (accompanied by fellow rappers Rocket Da Goon and Chris King) stated that the cover art and title for the project were derived from nicknames given to them.[4] Wop has been playfully described as a 'demon' by Redd and other friends, whilst Redd represents the 'angel', and is associated with the angel number 1400.[4]

Chantilly Post of HotNewHipHop wrote that "The project is mostly subtle bangers with chill beats and the echoing sounds from Trippie and Wop coming though, rapping about not "needing that bitch no more".[1] Davis Huynh of Hypebeast labelled the EP a "short-but-sweet compilation" and a "surprise Halloween treat."[3] Peter A. Berry of XXL wrote that "The new release features the two rappers' typically entertaining vocal stylings merged with mellow, energetic bangers perfect for a fall night. It's a perfect way to reinforce your Halloween playlist, which should already include Skepta's Vicious EP and 21 Savage, Offset and Metro Boomin's Without Warning."[2] Berry added: "For Lil Wop, who's Gucci's ace protégé, it's another solid release just days after he dropped his Wopavelli 3 project. For Trippie, who might have a collab with Drake on the way, it's another way to ensure he's always in your rotation."[2]
