Comment:

So, uh, yeah. The last time I posted a mix, I went on and on about how my mixes for the past couple years have been progressively disappointing me more and more, and how they've been pretty narrow in their scope. So I really wanted to have my next mix be, well, more of a mix. I think I did a pretty good job in keeping it varied.

Some production notes about the cover and title: for the past six years or so, I've been collecting found documents, and I figured that I'd put some of them to use for graphic design purposes. I used a photo, a page from a coloring book, and a letter, all unrelated for the artwork for this mix. I got the title of the mix from the letter, which is one of the better letters I've found. Brandy left the letter on the truck of Larry (who then promptly discarded it, apparently), and in it she asks why he doesn't call her, why he's avoiding her, so on. It culminates with her saying, "If you don't want to spit game with me any more, then just let me know." Boo-yah!
