On March 10, 2023, NLE Choppa announced the album cover and the release date. Four days before the album's release, he revealed the tracklist of the album.[3]
In an interview with Clash three days before the release of the album, NLE Choppa spoke on it and how it was different from his previous projects:
I'm just trying to be versatile. I'm trying to make sure that I can tap into any sound, any mood and any genre. I want it to be whole, I want it to be the most versatile version of myself and I feel like I accomplished that.[1]
A week before the album was released, NLE Choppa released a preluxe edition, which included several unreleased songs recorded between 2019 and 2020 that had not made it to the album.[2] Despite the songs not being released on the album with other streaming platforms, the songs were instead uploaded on SoundCloud.
