The album's title is a portmanteau of 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne's respective hometowns. 2 Chainz would later refer to this album in several interviews as a "tribute" to Lil Wayne. Instead, Wayne appeared as a "featured artist", courtesy of Cash Money Records, which meant that the project would not count towards Wayne's contractual obligation with Cash Money Records. Although it could not be released in conjunction with their respective record labels, 2 Chainz took it upon himself to release the album as his latest solo project through Def Jam Recordings.

The album includes production from several high-profile record producers such as Southside, Mike Will Made It, TM88, Infamous, Zaytoven, Lil' C, Metro Boomin, Ben Billions and London on da Track, among others.
