In 2015, Lil Peep released his first mixtape, Lil Peep Part One, which generated 4,000 plays in its first week. Shortly thereafter, he released his first extended play, Feelz, and another mixtape, Live Forever. The following year, Peep released two full-length mixtapes; Crybaby and Hellboy.
In May 2017, the band Mineral accused Peep of copyright infringement for 
including an unlicensed and uncredited sample of their song „LoveLetterTypewriter“ in his „Hollywood Dreaming“ track. Peep said that he was only trying to „show some love“ with the sample. One month later, Peep announced his debut album, Come Over When You’re Sober, via Instagram. The album was given the release date of August 11, 2017. After a slight delay, the album was released on August 15, 2017. Peep announced a Come Over When You’re Sober tour to promote the album. The tour began on August 2, 2017, and was scheduled to end on November 17, 2017, but was cut short by two days due to his death.
