“Spirit of Cyrus,” which features Snoop Dogg on the hook, starts the album off. A fictional narrative, it takes the listener into the psyche of mass murder targeting who he feels are racist police officers. It was inspired by the real life story of former LAPD officer Christopher Dorner: In 2013, Dorner shot and killed four people — mostly police — and wounded three others. He ultimately took his own life after a shootout with authorities in San Bernardino. During the manhunt for Dorner, LL was warned by some of his friends in law enforcement not to leave the house because of the eerie resemblance between himself and Dorden. Police had instructions to shoot to kill Dorner.
