In an interview with Billboard, Scott explained the meaning of his album title: ‘My next album, Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight is basically about all my friends and growing up here . I’m not saying that it’s a trap, we not in the fucking projects, but it’s like a social trap. It’s a social connection trap from what you want to do and how you want to express yourself. I feel like everyone just gets constricted by their parents or just life.’
On March 30, 2016, Scott and Young Thug announced that they will be releasing their song in ‘the next few days’. In April 2016, while Scott was performing in Houston, Texas, he previewed a snippet of the track.

On June 2, 2016, Scott took that song down, after posting it on his official SoundCloud page, stating that ‘This song was supposed to go to iTunes, but labels are making this more complicated than it actually need to be this was gonna be my single, but now I’m giving a way for the kids. P.S. They might take this down cause they don't want kids to eat.’
On July 26, 2016, in a show in the Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island, Scott announced the release date for Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight, however, the album missed its release dates due to ‘technical difficulties’ twice.
