Background

Shortly after the release of Gang Rags: Reborn, Blaze Ya Dead Homie announced in March 2015 that he would be releasing his new album in 2015 and that it would be titled The Casket Factory. In June 2015, he stated that the album would be released in 2015, but that the date would not be certain until after his tour with Kottonmouth Kings. A few days later, Twiztid said that the album was coming along nicely, and was nearing the finishing stages. At the 2015 Gathering of the Juggalos, during Twiztid's seminar, it was announced that The Casket Factory would be released on January 15, 2016.
