Prior to the album’s release, Lil Durk dropped his fifth studio album, Just Cause Y’all Waited 2, in May. The Chicago MC also linked up with Drake for his Certified Lover Boy single “Laugh Now Cry Later.” The song recently earned him two Grammy nominations for Best Rap Song and Best Melodic Performance.
