Mac takes a lot more laid back approach to his delivery, often times choosing to sing instead of rap. It makes the whole project feel very slow, even lethargic at times. While some of the songs are forgettable, the others stuck with me long past the album runtime. The ones that tended to stuck were the ones that hurt the most, the songs focused on regret and the general feeling of being lost. All of these are tied together by the key track "2009". The title of the track serves as a reference to the year he started releasing music, the year before dropping "K.I.D.S". The track itself is a look back at how far he has come since then and how he now "knows what's behind that door". It feels hopeful and thus knowing what happens to Mac, makes this song the most painful.
