Wayne was dealing with his arrest and charges while writing the mixtape, and he actually mentions his arrest multiple times in lyrics throughout the tape. When police pulled over Wayne's tour bus after claiming to smell marijuana, the rapper pleaded guilty to "attempted criminal possession of a weapon." Although pleading guilty still landed Wayne in Riker's Island Prison for a year, it greatly reduced his possible sentence. The song "No Ceilings" was released to iTunes under the title "Pop That" on the Loyalty EP, which also included Birdman's new single " Loyalty", which featured Tyga and Lil Wayne. The single was also released on Wayne's I Am Not a Human Being album. The song "Single" was released on as a single on iTunes titled "I'm Single", and charted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was officially released on via a live Ustream video and included higher quality audio as well as four additional tracks. The mixtape contains various freestyles over popular rap and R&B songs' instrumentals and features artists from his Young Money label including Nicki Minaj, Short Dawg, Gudda Gudda, Shanell, Jae Millz, and Tyga. The majority of the mixtape was leaked out to the public on multiple websites October 26, 2009. These were followed by "Run This Town" on October 25. Two Lil Wayne tracks, "Wasted" and "Swag Surf," were leaked onto the internet on October 11.
