Background

edit

Most of the songs that appear on the EP were recorded in late 2017 while Fike was on house arrest for battery of a police officer and were released independently through SoundCloud. In 2018, while serving a short jail sentence for breaking the terms of his house arrest, Fike's music generated a substantial amount of interest and sparked a bidding war amongst record labels. During this time all of his independently released music was removed from streaming services. On August 3, it was announced he had signed with Columbia Records for a reported $3–4 million. On October 16, he officially released Don't Forget About Me, Demos as his major-label debut.[3][4]
