The album artwork was created by EverythingWithHood.[3]

Critical reception

In 2017, Alphonse Pierre of HotNewHipHop wrote that "Trippie was able to showcase his strengths over the course of a concise 5 songs, each track hovering around 2 minutes."[4] Writing for Pitchfork in 2020, Pierre labelled "Qs and Ps" Trippie Redd and Pi'erre Bourne's "best track together." He added: "Bourne's production is rich with sounds that clash without detracting from each other, like gears grinding. It's so bright that it's eerie, like going on a slow ride through "It's a Small World" at Disneyland."[1]
