Background

The album has been in the works since January 2012.^[5] Rappers Killer Ben, Planet Asia and TriState first appeared as Durag Dynasty (abbreviated as DRDC) with fellow record producer and rapper the Alchemist on the song "Junkyard Fight Scene" from the latter's album Russian Roulette, which was released on July 17, 2012. Before the release of that album however, the Alchemist released a track with the group "Spuddnik Webb", that was supposed to be on Russian Roulette but eventually was not featured on the album.^[6]

On February 27, 2013, the album was released for pre-order, and the official track list was premiered.
