"Three or four nights ago I woke up in the middle of my sleep…I couldn’t sleep. My chest was hurting. I got up and called my producer, Troy Taylor and I said, 'We’ve got to make music that really touches the soul, that really addresses what the world is feeling right now. Especially our people.' So we came up with '2020 Riots: How Many Times,'" Songz said in a statement about what inspired the single.
"With the words in this song I just wanted to speak to everyone’s hearts and acknowledge the pain and anguish everyone is going through right now. I know this ain’t usually my message and you’re not used to hearing this from me, but this is the person I’ve always been.","Back Home." Most recently, he also re-released his 2009 and 2011 mixtapes
