Background and promotion

[edit]

On January 30, 2023, Keed's mother, Tonnie "HoodMama" Woods-Reed, wrote a note about her son and the progress of the album and posted it to his Instagram account, which read:

On May 13, 2022, I lost my son Raqhid Render – who many of you knew as the artist Lil Keed. While this journey through the different phases of grief has been indescribably hard, a way that I have found to cope is through his music. Right before his passing, Keed was hard at work at what would've been his highly anticipated next album, Keed Talk To 'Em 2.

As much as he was a great father, son and friend – he was also an artist who (thanks to many of you) lived and continues to live through his music. With that being said, the time has come to share some of our last pieces of Keed with you all starting with the release of his first single "Long Way To Go" this Friday. This song holds a special place in my heart, and as you guys will see, it will reflect on many aspects of Keed's journey here on Earth.

Long Live Keed![2]

On March 3, 2023, the cover art and release date for the album was revealed.[3] Four days later, the tracklist was revealed.[4]

After the album's release, Keed's music video for the song "Hitman" was released on the same day.[5] At the end of the video is a message to fans from Keed's family, explaining that this is the rapper's final music video.[6]
