Background

Despite not having any officially released singles, "Confidential" was released exclusively on YouTube on September 20, 2017, prior to being distributed to all digital streaming platforms alongside the mixtape.

On October 4, 2017, YoungBoy took to his official Instagram to announce the release of the mixtape, captioning the post: "Ain’t too long' drop Saturday #8songs."

Critical reception

Ain't Too Long received positive reviews from music critics. Writing for Pitchfork, James Balfour noted that the mixtape "continues to upend the fear and survivalism that [YoungBoy] carries with him" while noting that he "runs hot with revenge and remains obsessed with safeguarding his family at home and in the streets." Balfour stated that "YoungBoy’s raps run the gamut from fast-paced and percussive shouts to an almost metallic croon when the rasp of his voice is touched by AutoTune" while noting that his "nostalgia rots into resentment" throughout the project. Balfour concluded his review by stating that "even at this pivotal, accelerated moment in his career, it makes sense he’d want time to stand still for a little while."
