The album was released on July 28, 2017, by Roc Nation and Capitol Records.[1] The album features guest appearances from Weezer, Syd, The-Dream, Chief Keef, Joey Purp, Pharrell Williams, Saul Williams, Ty Dolla Sign and Pusha T.[2] The album was released for streaming, a week early from its release date via NPR.[3] BackgroundOn July 11, 2017, the release date for the album was revealed.[4] On July 14, 2017, the album's cover art was released.[2] Vic Mensa explained the concept behind The Autobiography during an interview with Rap-Up, saying: {{cquote|"It’s a human album, It explores my humanity, mainly, and I leave that to the listener to make parallels to themselves. When I say that the album is my blood, sweat, and tears, and everything I’ve learned up to this point, it’s just because it literally is."[5]}}From a musical standpoint, Vic Mensa drew inspiration from 1990s hip hop while making the album.[6] He recruited No I.D. to executive produce the album.[7] In an interview with Billboard, Mensa stated that No I.D. helped him "create a consolidated, concise body of work."[7] SinglesThe album's lead single "Wings" was released on July 13, 2017.[8][9] Three tracks from the album, "Rollin Like a Stoner", "Rage" and "OMG" were previously released from his EP The Manuscript, which was a prelude to the album.
