In a 2011 interview with Complex, Just Blaze revealed that the album was the reason for his stage name, originally being a running joke between the Harlem World members when suggesting a producer name for him. It then developed to the point where they credited him on the album under the Just Blaze name. Blaze did not like the name at first, but after the album's success, eventually decided to keep the name.[5]
