The album was produced by Digable Planets' Ishmael Butler ("Butterfly") and features raps from Butler, Irving and Viera. The production leans heavily on jazz samples, Butler explaining that “it was all about resources, really...I just went and got the records that I had around me. And a lot of those were my dad’s shit, which was lots of jazz. The whole concept of ‘We’re a jazz group’ didn’t go down like that. Except that DJ Premier was a big influence, and he sampled a lot of jazz.” Lyrically, the tone of the album is less overtly political than its successor Blowout Comb, but still touches on issues such as abortion rights (La Femme Fetal) and the drug abuses of jazz musicians (Last of the Spiddyocks). The album title derives from Nueva refutación del tiempo ("A New Refutation of Time"), an essay by Argentinian author Jorge Luis Borges, as well as the tendency of earlier jazz musicians in naming their albums (Moanin', Cookin', etc).
The song was also sampled by E-40 from his 2006, Gold certified album My Ghetto Report Card on a song titled "Yay Area". The song was also featured in the film Freedom Writers, the 2009 commercial for Tide and on the VH1 show Hindsight where it appeared along with "The May 4th Movement" in the shows's eighth episode.

I will drive a thousand miles To escape the smog in this town I will drive although I don't have a license To escape the ideal that this city crowns Hide every little scar with so much make-up The skin can't even breathe Hide every little scar or become the food they feed Shift into a higher gear Place the brick on the gas On what I left behind I won't waste a tear My rearview mirror has got broken glass I will drive until I reach the desert And wait until I see with my own eyes again I will drive I'll head for the desert And wait until our minds speak the same words as back then This makes me into nothing in their eyes But I'm willing to pay the price
