Background[]

Lil Peep was known for having a signature "Crybaby" tattoo on his forehead, which signified to him reassurance to be grateful.

“Crybaby”, the album's first track, is a sample from Brand New's song “The No Seatbelt Song” off the album “Your Favorite Weapon”. Brand New is a band from Long Island, New York in which Lil Peep drew much influence from, having sampled them on four other tracks of his.

Wicca Phase Springs Eternal whom is featured on the album's fourth track is Ex-Frontman of “Tigers Jaw” who had worked alongside Brand New a few times and has sampled them as well. This album is highly influenced from the pop punk era of the 2000s and is what really made it unique.

The mixtape was released for free download through MediaFire upon release.[5]
