Background

The album is based on vocalist Ice-T's love of horror movies, a theme he decided on while in New Jersey during the COVID-19 pandemic: <blockquote>"I was watching horror movies, serial killers, all this s—. So before you know it, there’s a song called ‘The Purge.’ There’s a song called ‘Psychopath.’ I’m looking at this new election coming. I’m like, ‘these motherf—s are gangbanging.’ All these different topics are coming to my head, and we make the next record."</blockquote>
