Background and promotion

edit

Prior to the release of the project, Gravy released two music videos. On April 22, 2020, the video for "Tampa Bay Bustdown" was published, featuring Gravy alongside featured artists Chief Keef and Y2K. On September 2, 2020, Gravy released the video for "Yup!", which tells the story Bruce Buttercrisp, the character Gravy plays in the video.

In collaboration with clothing brand PizzaSlime, a wave of merchandise inspired by Gasanova arrived on September 16, 2020.[4]

Gravy took to Twitter on September 29, 2020, to announce the album, revealing the title, cover art, and track list.[5]

During a virtual press conference on September 30, 2020, Rowdy Magazine asked Gravy to describe Gasanova's "vibe" in three words. He said: "It thumps. It's carefree. It's gas."[6]

The main line of Gasanova merchandise was released alongside the album through Gravy's official webstore titled Creamium.[7]

Following the album's release, Gravy released music videos for the songs "Gas Money" and "Miami Ice".
