Speaking about the album, Malone – whose real name is Austin Post – said: “It’s been some of the funnest music, some of the most challenging and rewarding music for me, at least — trying to really push myself and really do some cool stuff.”
He continued: “I played guitar on every song on the record, and it was a really, really fun experience, and I’m super, super excited to share it with you.”
On discussing the album’s artwork, the musician wrote: “This whole deal has been one of the most challenging, rewarding, and exciting records I’ve worked on.”
“I feel it captures who I am as a man and as an artist in this moment. Thank y’all so much for your patience, and thank you for being there with me in my hardest times. I love y’all so much, and am ready to fucking party with y’all. Cheers, and keep spreading love,” he added.
