Background

The album's title derives from a line from a 2002 Kashal Tee song, "I'm All This", in which he says: "So fuck the commercial tracks you be doin' - A brother got to eat - Yeah? Why don't you rap for food then?" It is played in the intro of "Lynguistics" and Kashal Tee is also featured on the song "616 Rewind".[citation needed] In addition, the quotation could be rooted back to the 2000 album of Guru, Jazzmatazz vol.3 where, in the song "Who's There?", a featuring with Les Nubians, he says: "These distraught thoughts of a young man in a rooming house, This messed up life, this poverty, he could do without, But what options does he have when all hope is gone? A brother gotta eat, plus all the Henny and all the smoke is gone, All it takes is one quick stick".[6]
