The deluxe album released December 9, featuring four additional songs including the "original version" of "NWA" as well as "These Signs" and "Apply Pressure" The album, like Lucky Daye's previous work, is considered contemporary R&B. It is said to expand on his sound "only slightly", with the typical laidback vibe and "tasteful" instrumentation infused with "gently plucked acoustic guitar and cinematic strings alongside textural pitch-shifted vocals and rhythmic backbeats" by producer D'Mile. The album takes influence from Soundcloud rap's lo-fi qualities, with some tracks such as "NWA" incorporating elements of trap.
