TM is the eighth and final studio album by American hip hop boy band Brockhampton. It was released on November 18, 2022, one day after the release of the group's previous studio album The Family , through RCA and Question Everything. For its entire rollout, The Family was advertised as the band's final album. A surprise release, TM was announced for release alongside a promo image for The Family, and was billed by the band as a "parting gift for fans". [1]
The album was executively produced by Brockhampton member Matt Champion, marking Champion's first production credit on a Brockhampton project. [2] Although he is credited as part of the group, vocalist and producer Bearface did not contribute to the record. [3]
The Family had been advertised as the final studio album from Brockhampton. Despite this, in a promo image posted to social media alongside the release of The Family, the band announced surprise album TM in small text towards the bottom of the image, reading "Surprise album (TM) midnight local." [4] TM completed the 6-album deal that the group signed with RCA Records in 2018. [5]
Stated in a press release, TM is "an album made up of songs that were started by the group during a two-week stint in Ojai, California in 2021, but were never fully completed during those sessions." The album is executively produced by Brockhampton member Matt Champion. [1] [6]
"Keep It Southern" and "Man on the Moon" were previously teased as part of the band's Technical Difficulties Radio livestreams in 2020. [7]
