Background

According to Knight, the two spoke of a possible collaboration during their time with supergroup NKOTBSB. Initially, the two were planning to conduct a co-headlining tour, promoting previous and forthcoming solo projects. [2] After the 2011-12 tour, they decided to collaborate on a single, which eventually grew into Knight and Carter completing an entire album.

In April 2014, the duo made an appearance on the American morning show, Good Morning America . During the appearance, they announced their single, album and tour. [3] The show has been described as a big party. [2] Despite being performed in nightclubs and theatres, each show will possess the energy of an arena gig. The two will perform songs from their new album, alongside their solo hits. A homage to boy bands will be performed, as well as a tribute to music that has inspired both Carter and Knight. [2]
