BIGBABYGUCCI’s twelfth studio album, WHEN U WAKE UP, was first teased on November 15th, 2022, in a tweet by GUCCI, where he mentioned that he was working on an album.

On December 5th, 2022, the album was teased with three snippets, out of which two were released as singles: “BANK ACCOUNT” in January 2023 and “Silver” in March 2023. A day later, he tweeted about a Teen Spirit Radio 9, which would accompany the album. Three days later, on December 9th, 2022, he announced that WHEN U WAKE UP would be released in January 2023.

However, GUCCI postponed the album’s release and released Homesick in January 2023 and Colors in March 2023 as fillers until he was satisfied with WHEN U WAKE UP. These albums contained throwaways from Soda & Syrup and Iridesense and new songs that GUCCI didn’t want to include anywhere else.

The album was officially announced on December 26th, 2022, with a cover art, four days after the release of his single, “Diamonds from Sierra Leone.” GUCCI released two singles intended for the album, “Alley Oop” on June 1st, 2023, and “Ride” on June 21st, 2023. However, he was unsure if they would be included in the final cut of the album, as there were many different songs he wanted to include.

On August 6th, 2023, GUCCI estimated that the album would arrive in October. The next day, he posted a teaser of the music video for the next single, “Man on the Moon,” which was released on August 10th. On August 8th, he posted another snippet to TikTok, sampling TikTok musician RJ Pasin’s track “Isekai.” This song was released at the end of the month, on August 31st, titled “Modern Day.”

GUCCI released a throwaway track titled “60 FLOORS UP,” for his birthday, in addition to teasing a Matt OX feature on the album. “60 FLOORS UP” was intended to release on all platforms alongside “Modern Day,” on August 31st, but didn’t for unknown reasons.

On September 1st, he announced a Call of Duty: Warzone tournament hosted by himself and OGG. The tournament was livestreamed on GUCCI’s Twitch channel on September 16th, where snippets from WHEN U WAKE UP were played.

On September 12th, 2023, after signing a contract with Alamo Records, GUCCI turned in the album. On September 16th, a billboard of the album’s cover was shown in Los Angeles. “Ken Doll!” was released on September 22nd, and GUCCI confirmed that it was the first single off the album, and none of the previously mentioned singles would be on the tracklist except for “Ken Doll!”. On September 28th, 2023, BIGBABYGUCCI officially announced the album’s tracklist and release date: October 13th.
