Bronx rapper Don Q released his Corner Stories mixtape independently in early 2017 and signed to Atlantic Records—home to longtime homie A Boogie wit da Hoodie—shortly afterward. Reloaded presents an expanded version of Corner Stories, with original songs like the dark, streetwise tales "2 Perks" and "Do It Bigger" plus a few reworks and new additions. A Boogie guests on "I Told You," his singsong flow contrasting with Don Q's rugged, bullish style, and Fabolous slides into the minor-key "Chasing These Bands."
