Cyrus announced the album at the end of her set at Lollapalooza Brazil in São Paulo on March 27, 2022.[2] "You" was first performed by Cyrus during her Miley's New Year's Eve Party special in Miami on December 31, 2021, while "Attention" was teased during the Super Bowl Music Fest concert. The album was recorded in February 2022.[1]
Music videos for "Attention", "We Can't Stop x Where Is My Mind?", "Wrecking Ball x Nothing Compares 2 U", "Never Be Me", and "Like a Prayer" were released on March 27, 28, 29, 30, and April 1, 2022, respectively.[3][4][5]
On April 25, 2022, Cyrus announced the release of the deluxe version of the album, which would include six additional songs,[6] that are mostly part of her time at the Lollapalooza festival in Brazil and other shows in Latin America, and she comments on the addition of "Angels like You" at her concert in Colombia in gratitude due to the song reaching the number one spot on iTunes in that country and because her fans sang the song all night outside the hotel where she was staying in Bogotá.[7]

Pitchfork | 5.6/10[9] |
Emily Swingle of Clash gave acclaim to Cyrus's versatile vocals, saying "Cyrus' voice is truly a force to be reckoned with, seamlessly fitting whatever genre Cyrus chooses to tackle. From the playful, country-hip-hop banger that is '4x4', to rap-heavy '23', to the bluesy, rich cover of Janis Joplin's 'Maybe', it seems like Cyrus can fit into just about any genre she gets her paws on."[8] Pitchfork writer Dani Blum praised the album's covers, but questioned the inclusions of lesser songs from Cyrus' catalog like "23", saying "Cyrus sounds limp, drowned out by the constantly swirling siren that underpins the song. It's jarring to hear these songs now, and the appropriation baked into their legacy. For years, Cyrus clung to hip hop stylings and aesthetics, creating controversy after controversy, but here, she sounds barely committed to the Bangerz stretch of songs."[9]
