Production and composition
Overview
The album is primarily an abstract hip-hop album, similar to work of artists like Mike, Pink Siifu, and Earl Sweatshirt. It is a concept album, inspired by What's Going On by Marvin Gaye, in which Mavi puts more emphasis on the meaning of the lyrics rather than the show and display of them. He was inspired heavily by the writing of Toni Morrison. Many of the lyrics inspire social change.[1][2] The album's title references the beliefs of the Five-Percent Nation and Rastafari.[3][4][5][6][7]
