Release and promotion

On June 16, 2023, Gucci Mane announced the album and later that day, his new interview with Apple’s “Zane Lowe” premiered. In it, Gucci revealed that his approach to the record was unlike his previous projects. This time around, he was more intentional about his lyrical content. He noted that the tragic killings of Young Dolph and Takeoff and the arrests of his friends/labelmates Pooh Shiesty and Foogiano led him to take a rap detour. Gucci later stated, “I’m just not in the mood to hear a whole bunch of drilling and killing and this and that”, Gucci said that he has a new approach to music that will be better than before.^[2]^[3]

Critical reception

Шаблон:Music ratings

Writing for HipHopDX, Peter A. Berry felt that the album is a throwback to the early '90s when he said, "If you’re an early ’90s baby, the real zinger is this: One of your favorite crunk deep cuts is officially old enough to be sampled. Like, in the same way that Dr. Dre reimagined ’70s soul records. The music you grew up on is the old school." Peter A. Barry continues to talk about how the J. Cole assisted "There I Go" or the DaBaby and 21 Savage assisted "06 Gucci" are "a banger" and "slap" and he goes on to say they are "self-referential anthems with standout stanzas" meaning he really enjoyed the songs and he later continued to say that the Roddy Ricch and Nardo Wick assisted "Pissy" was an excellent throwback to Gucci's 2009 single "Lemonade" and he said that "Pissy" was just as good if not even better and he continued to talk about how good the songs are.^[21]
