He went on to say that he has recorded many songs with rap group Odd Future.[4] [5] In late November 2012, Juicy J announced the album would be released in February 2013 and indicated an interest in working with Nas, Dr. Dre and Jay-Z.[6] He also went on to say the album was almost finished.[7] Juicy J had stated he recorded around 80 songs for the project, which were mostly recorded in hotel rooms while on tour.[8] Complex ranked the album at number 22 on their list of the 50 most anticipated albums of 2013.[9]

Juicy J worked with various recording artists on the album including, Wiz Khalifa, The Weeknd, Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Yelawolf, Chris Brown, Project Pat, Trey Songz, Maejor Ali, Young Jeezy and Big Sean. In addition to handling production himself, Juicy J also worked with producers Lex Luger, Sonny Digital, Mike Will Made It, Dr. Luke, Hit-Boy, Illangelo and Crazy Mike.[10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] In early April 2013, Juicy J told Billboard that there would be a "secret special feature" on the album he has yet to reveal.[17]

Wiz Khalifa told Power 105 on April 18, 2013, that legendary rapper Pimp C would be featured on the album,[18] and later on April 23 during an interview with DJ Whoo Kid he said that singer Justin Timberlake would make a guest appearance.[19] Then on July 6, 2013, Juicy J confirmed production on the album would come from himself, Mike Will Made It, Dr. Luke, Lex Luger, Young Chop, Crazy Mike, Baby E, Timbaland, I.D.

Prior to the album's release Juicy J released several mixtapes such as Rubba Band Business 1 & 2 and 2011's Blue Dream & Lean. Juicy J would go out with his street team to cities such as Atlanta, and passed out these mixtapes.[22] On June 10, 2013, Juicy J announced he would be releasing a four track mixtape prior to the album titled, Wax. All the songs on the mixtape were reported to also have music videos, however that mixtape would not come to fruition, and "Wax" would end up being a track on Stay Trippy.[23] [24]

He worked as a supporting act along with the rest of Taylor Gang on Wiz Khalifa's 2050 Tour during late 2012 and early 2013.[25] On March 13, Juicy J released the first of many Trippy Tour vlog episodes.[26] Prior to the album's release Juicy J went on the Stay Trippy Tour from April 21 till June 8, 2013, with his opening act ASAP Ferg.[27] He is also planning a possible college tour to take place after the album release.[8]

In early February 2013 in an interview Juicy J reported the album would release near the end of March 2013. He would however push it back and on March 11, 2013, say the album would be released in June or July 2013.[28] [29] On April 29, he would announce a release date of July 2, 2013.[30] However he would push it back again, till August, and on July 15 in a press release Juicy J announced a final release date for the album of August 27, 2013 in the United States.[21] On July 21, 2013, the track listing and album cover was revealed.[31] Its first release was on August 23, 2013, in other countries such as Australia.

In August 2013, Naima Cochrane (Juicy J's product manager at Columbia Records) told Billboard that "The Woods" featuring Justin Timberlake, could very possibly be a future single.[8] She also said that there would be as many as three more singles after "Bounce It" from the album.[8] On October 3, 2013, the music video was released for "All I Blow Is Loud".[32] On October 31, 2013, the music video was released for "Stop It".[33] On December 11, 2013, the music video was released for "No Heart No Love" featuring Project Pat.[34] On July 18, 2014, the music video was released for "Scholarship" featuring ASAP Rocky.[35] On August 26, 2014, the music video was released for "Smoke a Nigga" featuring Wiz Khalifa.[36]

Critical response

Stay Trippy received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 66, based on 10 reviews.[70] Al Shipley of the Baltimore City Paper gave the album a positive review, saying "Stay Trippy winds up as something of a triumph, one of the year's most thoroughly enjoyable major label albums."[71] David Jeffries of AllMusic said, "Fans will need four or five hands to count all the other laugh-out-loud punch lines, and even if this album is redundant and overstuffed with hedonism and recklessness, that's just Juicy being Juicy." Rick Florino of Artistdirect stated, "Stay Trippy is as wild as modern hip-hop gets. It's a slick, seductive, and stone romp through a hazy synth boom, strip club-ready beats, and some of Juicy J's tightest rapping to date." Stacy-Ann Ellis of Vibe gave the album a positive review, saying "Despite the wild assortment of flows and flavors, Juicy J manages to avoid being eclipsed on his own project. Their presence only amplifies the quality of his offering, a hypothesis that is reinforced by three of the album's standout pieces."[72] B.J. Steiner of XXL said, "Stay Trippy is a record that knows to stay within the lane that it's carved for itself. Big-budget stripper rap has rarely sounded so fresh." Nick Henderson of Tiny Mix Tapes gave the album three out of five stars, saying "On Stay Trippy, Juicy J sounds as energized, self-assured, and dangerous as ever."[73] Patrick Taylor of RapReviews.com stated, "Even if Juicy J's brand of explicit hip-hop isn't your cup of syrup, you have to admire the man for staying relevant and good as he nears his third decade in the game."

Chris Kelly of Fact said, "By embracing the codeine-weed-molly trifecta, hashtag-friendly hooks, and — perhaps most significantly — ascendant producers, the 38-year-old rapper has maintained rap relevance, even as that has become more difficult than ever." Peter Marrack of Exclaim! stated, "For all its vulgarity, predictability, repetitiveness and reckless musings on drugs, Juicy J's trippy music succeeds because of its spirit." Julia LeConte of Now said, "The whole thing isn't about disrespecting women, though. Some songs merely weave the misogyny around simple-pleasure narratives: popping molly, making money. On his third solo record, the Three 6 Mafia rapper signed to Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Gang is 'getting high like he's 18.' At 38, though, it's not super-amusing, like J is the hip-hop Peter Pan refusing to grow up among a crew of younger emcees." Elysa Gardner of USA Today stated, "Stay Trippy can be musically compelling. Granted, the words are hard to miss. "Stay motivated, stay high, stay hustling, (forget) everything else," he intones on "So Much Money", a title that sums up the highest virtue in J's world." David "Rek" Lee of HipHopDX said, "Some Rap is tailor made for headphone listening and careful analysis of every word. Then there are songs that are meant to be played loud in public settings, and the lyrics don't matter so much. If you haven't already figured it out, Stay Trippy is the latter. And for as much flack as it receives, there is entertainment value there and it serves its purpose as a soundtrack to the 'trippy' lifestyle."

Accolades

Stay Trippy was ranked number 20 on Spins list of the 40 best hip hop albums of 2013. They commented saying, "this is basically what the Juiceman's been doing for 20 years — self-producing albums of bellowing bass, eerie synths, and shouted slogans. It helps that his sound helped spawn wildly popular things like Atlanta trap and Chicago drill; it helps that Wiz Khalifa helped him acquire the budget to get an absolutely monstrous low end; and it helps that we're not sick of "Bandz a Make Her Dance."[74] It was also positioned at number 27 on Complexs list of the 50 best albums of 2013. They said, "armed with an endless barrage of rattling beats, and a host of just-so-over-the-top-ridiculous-you-have-to-laugh punchlines, and enough believable gangsta talk to separate himself from the good kids of today's rap scene, Stay Trippy is the perfect explanation for why Juicy has been rich since the '90s."[75] XXL ranked it at number 13 on their list of the best albums of 2014.[76]
