Background


In the two-year period that the album was recorded, Posner was dealing with the end of a relationship, then moved back to Detroit to care for his terminally ill father,[3] who later died of brain cancer, and his friend Avicii committed suicide.[6] Posner said: "I had to go to the studio everyday and I was trying to just show up and record all the songs and do a good job and I was sad."[6] In a press statement, Posner said the album "deals heavily with love, loss and eventual acceptance".[3] The album includes recordings of Mike's father.
