Crybaby by Lil Peep

Crybaby is the fourth mixtape by American hip-hop recording artist Lil Peep. It was released on June 10, 2016 independently, and was later posthumously re-released to streaming platforms on June 10, 2020 with 10 of the original 11 tracks. "Falling 4 Me" could not be released to streaming platforms due to copyright issues with a sample used in the song. "Absolute in Doubt", featuring artist and frequent collaborator Wicca Phase Springs Eternal, was the only single to appear on the mixtape. “Crybaby”, the albums first track, is a sample from Brand New’s song “The No Seatbelt Song” off the album “Your Favorite Weapon”. Brand New is a band from Long Island, New York in which Lil Peep drew much influence from, having sampled them on four other tracks of his. Wicca Phase Springs Eternal whom is featured on the albums fourth track is Ex-Frontman of “Tigers Jaw” who had worked alongside Brand New a few times & has sampled them as well. This album is highly influenced from the pop punk era of the 2000’s and is what really made it unique. Lil Peep was known for having a signature "Crybaby" tattoo on his forehead, which signified to him reassurance to be grateful. Peep spoke about it on an interview with GQ Magazine and said: "I found myself complaining a lot, being very ungrateful for the things that I have in my life.. so I got the Crybaby tattoo on my face to remind me that I have been doing really good, and there’s a lot of people on earth who would love to be in the position I’m in, so it keeps me really grateful." ℗ 2016 Lil Peep / AUTNMY
