Since dropping his debut, Gutta, in 2008 at the age of 20, Ace Hood rarely slowed down. He released a sophomore record, 2009's Ruthless, and a multitude of loose tracks. The latter culminated in mixtapes such as Gutta: Reloaded, which might also be a revamped version of his debut. But it, like many projects of its kind, primarily features “freestyles” over industry beats, like Travis Porter's “Make It Rain." This mixtape also serves as the precursor to Hood's third album, Mr. Hood.
