XXXTentacion's second studio album "?" was released in March 2018, the last project he released before being murdered in June 2018. His first posthumous album, "Skins", was released in December 2018. On the anniversary of his murder, his estate announced an upcoming album and documentary planned for the year. "Billboard" confirmed the album's title as "Bad Vibes Forever" in August 2019, with a slated release for fall 2019. The album was reported to feature guest appearances from Stefflon Don, Lil Wayne, Lil Nas X, Trippie Redd, Rick Ross, Joey Badass and more. However, the song featuring Lil Nas X would later be scrapped; stating that the fans didn't want it at first, it was because of one of Lil Nas X's tweets from his old Twitter account. But it was resolved, right around the corner from the release of the album. On August 25, 2019, the songs "Hearteater" and "School Shooters (ft. Lil Wayne)" were confirmed for the album.
