Background[]

Kodak took to Instagram to announce his third studio album on October 26, 2020, while serving a 46-month prison sentence.^[7] In this post, Kodak revealed the project's title, length, and cover art, which features Kodak alongside a Rabbi, surrounded by doodles. Many of the sketches are religious, such as the multiple crosses, a Star of David, and "#THESTAROFDAVID". These are in reference to Kodak's Hebrew Israelite identity, which he discovered while he was incarcerated after studying scripture with a Rabbi, who served as a prison chaplain.^[8]

On November 5, 2020, Kodak Black published the album's tracklist.^[9] Similar religious imagery to the front cover art is also present on the tracklist.
