Across the three sections of TA13OO, Denzel explores “taboo” topics including molestation, the presidential election, fame, hatred, paranoia, revenge, love, the current state of music and personal tales of his own near-death experiences. In an interview with MTV, he highlighted how his EP 13 serves as a “bridge” between Imperial and Taboo and that: "You won’t hear the same shit from Imperial, on Taboo" He also mentions that each album he has released relates to a certain part of his personality or part of his life.
