The album was originally slated to be the second part to Gravity, Pt. 1 and be released on October 10.[6]
Promotion

editThe song "Nobody Compares to You", featuring Katie Pearlman, was released in October 2017, followed by "Just for a Moment", featuring Iselin Solheim, released in June 2018. In August 2018, Gryffin was rebranded and, to mark the occasion, released "Tie Me Down", in collaboration with Elley Duhe, weeks apart from her collaboration with Zedd. "Remember", with Zohara, was released in October 2018, which was shortly followed by the announcement of an upcoming project. Two promotional singles were released, entitled "Bye Bye", featuring Ivy Adara, and "You Remind Me", featuring Stanaj, before the release of his debut extended play Gravity, Pt. 1.
In 2019, "All You Need to Know", in collaboration with Slander and featuring Calle Lehmann, was released in March 2019. "Hurt People", in collaboration with Aloe Blacc, was shortly followed in May 2019. Gryffin announced the release of the song "OMG", in collaboration with Carly Rae Jepsen, in July 2019, captioning the post "Big one coming this week".[7]
In September 2019, Gryffin announced the full-length album was to be released on October 10, 2019, and released the song "Baggage", in collaboration with Gorgon City and AlunaGeorge.[3] Following its release, Billboard previewed the record, saying: "If the early tracks are any indication, the LP will be jam-packed with massive collabs showing off the producer's wide-ranging sonic palette and full songwriting scope."[2]
In October 2019, Gryffin announced the last single from the album to be released, entitled "Body Back", featuring vocals from Maia Wright, a week prior to album release on October 18, 2019.
