Background

It's been over 10 years since Fredro Starr of ONYX dropped his last solo album. In 2012 he hooked up with Brown Bag AllStars's producer The Audible Doctor, who serves up some stellar sample-heavy beats for Fredro's cinematic street tales. At first they planned to release EP but then they have decided to turn the EP into a full length album. The Audible Doctor produced all songs on an album.[1] On that album Fredro and Doctor taking back their listeners to 1989.[2]

Relations with Drake

In 2010 Canadian rapper Drake mentioned Fredro Starr on his song "Light Up":

"...The shit feel like when Fredro Starr was in Sunset Park, stuntin' hard in his yellow goose."

In response to this Fredro samples Drake for his song "The Truth".[3][4]

"...I mean yeah I respect him for that reason. He shout me out on his first album on a record with Jay Z, on the ‘Light Up’ record which was probably one of the hottest records on his first album. Sampling Drake on the Made In The Streets joint ‘The Truth’ was just an ode back to him. Like somebody giving you dap, I’m giving dap right back."

The third single, "Made In The Streets RMX" was released, August 15, 2013.[8] The title track, which gave the name to the whole album

The next single, "Ain't No Other Kings" featuring DJ Nelson was released, August 22, 2013.[9] The song "Ain't No Other Kings" is not a response to Kendrick Lamar, the song is dedicated to The Notorious B.I.G. that's why Biggie sampled on this song.[10]
