Background and promotion
editOn October 1, 2022, Nav took to Twitter to announce the title of the album, which was called Nav2 at the time and would be his third commercial mixtape.[1] On February 10, 2023, he released the self-produced single "Lately", which was originally going to serve as the lead single from the project, to kick off his next musical era.[2] For the rest of the year, Nav stayed relatively quiet on social media and posted a few snippets of songs that might possibly appear on the project, although he released a few songs and was featured on a few.[3]
In April 2024, Nav performed twice at the Coachella festival in Indio, California, on April 14 and April 21, where he announced the title On My Way 2 Rexdale at the end of his performance on the former date although it was unclear whether it was a single or a project and performed the then-unreleased song from the album titled "Red" on the latter date.[4] On May 14, he released a trailer video for the album, where he confirmed the title of the album and announced that it would be released in the middle of that year, while also hinting at Future, Don Toliver, and Playboi Carti being some of the potential guest appearances on the album.[5] On July 31, 2024, Nav released the lead single of the album, "Rexdale".[6] Two days later, he released the second single, "6AM Thoughts", which is a collaboration with American rapper Bay Swag that features fellow American rapper Cash Cobain.[7]
