Background and release
On October 31, 2017, the duo hosted a listening party for friends and family in Toronto. In a statement with Billboard, the duo states,

88GLAM was an idea that people saw the potential for before we did. It's rare that two different aesthetics can meet the way ours do and create something so organic.

The lead single of the mixtape, "12", the duo's debut single, was released on November 1, 2017. The music video premiered on Billboard and was directed by Dan LeMoyne. The second single, "Bali", which features Canadian rapper Nav, the duo's now-former labelmate from XO, was released alongside the mixtape on November 7, 2017. The third and final single, "Big Tymers", was released on December 7, 2017.

Critical reception
Scott Glaysher of Exclaim! wrote that the album is best enjoyed for what it is: "a satisfying, distorted trap-a-thon with plenty of hearty beats and boastful bravado."
