The title is a play on Lauryn Hill’s debut " The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill ", similarly how other projects by Gibbs released in 2009 reference classic hip hop albums, with his next mixtape "Midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik" taking inspiration from OutKast's " Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik" and his compilation "The Labels Tryin’ to Kill Me!" paying homage to "The Ghettos Tryin’ to Kill Me!" by Master P.
