Background
In a statement released January 30, Wallen explained that the album "brings together the musical influences that have shaped [him] as an artist – country, alternative and hip-hop" and the album ended up with 36 songs "because [they] just kept exploring with fresh lyrics, music and production ideas and these are the songs that felt right" to him.[4] Billboard described the album as "genre-blending".[5]
The cover photograph was taken at Wallen's grandfather's home in Sneedville, Tennessee.[5]
