In an interview with MTV, Jeezy explained why he chose not to release a regular studio album to showcase his crew.

"It's crazy," Jeezy said in a statement. "I wanted to do it mix tape-style 'cause I wanted it to be something for the streets. It's like Trap or Die on steroids. I love that. It's a street album, just raw."

    Cold Summer

    by: Forgotten Tomb

    Come, come over me
    Dark waters, drowning hope
    Images shattered by dimness
    A place so full of void and disease
    The swollen vagina of sickness opens
    So inviting and warm, unveiling my call to perdition
    Rotten blood drained straight from my arteries
    Rust in my mouth, the foul stench of lovely perversion
    Your sickness divine
    Architets of my suffering
    Driving my way to my self-annihilation
    Embracing impurity
    Tearing away every piece of my smile
    Adrift in a sea of unlimited obscurity
    I welcome my curse with outstretched arms
    And rejoice
    Starvation comes, grief-filled sobriety
    Loaded on angst, bloated on disgusting misery
    Your sickness divine
    Collapsing the sane
    Life fills me with disgust.
    Life fills me with disgust.
