They reconnected the following year working with singer Kiiara on her single "Gold". In 2016, they started Terror Jr as a "social experiment", with Singer-Vine adding "It's a puzzle, and we're gonna give out pieces with each song."<ref name="LA weekly" / [1] The group released their debut extended play Bop City on October 21, 2016.[7]

In November 2016, Kylie Jenner was rumored to be the lead singer of Terror Jr.[8] Jenner denied being a part of the group in a Snapchat post on November 9, 2016.[9]

Terror Jr released the song "Heartbreaks" through their YouTube channel on November 24, 2016.[10] On February 14, 2017, the group released a remix package of "Come First".[2]
