Background

At first, the album was originally called Thumpy Johnson and was supposed to be released in 2013.^[1] In August 2014, Jeremih announced that he was changing the title of the album to Late Nights: The Album as the sequel to his mixtape Late Nights with Jeremih that was released in 2012. In an XXL interview, he explained why he decided to change the title. "The last body of work I put out was Late Nights," Jeremih said. "I still feel like how I was feeling when I recorded that. I was traveling, up late nights, recording all the time. It just felt like every record was catering to… I imagined if it was a big bed in the club, everybody would be in one big ass orgy off of all the songs. My first two albums I was making sad songs. I don’t feel like that no more. I was in a relationship then. I’m single as hell right now. You’re getting the best of my last single years".^[2] On August 4, 2014, Jeremih released a mixtape called N.O.M.A. (Not On My Album) to show all the songs he recording that wasn't going to be on the album. But, one song on the mixtape called "Can't Go No Mo" featuring Juicy J has been added to the tracklist of Late Nights.

In an interview with Billboard, Jeremih explains how his personal issues is the reason for the album delays. He says, "I blame myself". I had a video scheduled. I just didn't show up to it because of..." he started, choosing not to finish his thought. "I'm not going to point my finger at somebody else at this point". Jeremih then pointed to some personal troubles he was having with the mother of his child. "I stopped caring about being Jeremih over the last few months," he said. "A lot of people don't know I have a two-year-old son. His mom wasn't allowing me to see him, and it was messing with me. I was internally unbalanced. But I just got out of that trial and I won". Jeremih also expressed some frustration with his label. "Def Jam is hesitating and not being on my side," he explained. "I see other artists and how they're supported. It's hard when I'm on a roster with Rihanna, Rick Ross and Kanye West".^[3]

On April 30, title change Late Nights: The Album, and to becoming Late Nights to diffrent.
