 The epic-sounding, Clams Casino-produced opening track, "Palace", has Rocky acknowledging Southern hip hop's influence on his sound: "Influenced by Houston / you can hear it in my music". "Wassup" has an ethereal, Houston-inspired soundscape. However, Chase McMullen of Beats Per Minute observes from the mixtape's sound the "threatening vibe" of Raekwon's 1995 album Only Built 4 Cuban Linx ... and a grime influence, commenting that "while southern influences currently dominate much of current hip hop, Rocky places as much importance on the Wu as he does Three 6." Paul Lester of The Guardian compares "Peso" to the stylings of The Jet Age of Tomorrow. "Trilla" has a funk and boom bap influence in its production.
