Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 (2017)

Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 (often shortened to COWYS Pt. 1), is the debut studio album by American rapper Lil Peep and the only album to be released during his lifetime. It was released on August 15, 2017, by AUTNMY via AWAL. The album was supported by four singles: "Benz Truck (гелик)", "The Brightside", "Awful Things" and "Save That Shit". Lil Peep died exactly three months after the album's release.

Following Lil Peep's death, Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 peaked at number 38 on the US Billboard 200.

Background

In 2017, Lil Peep left Los Angeles, California. He considered moving to his home-town of Long Beach, New York but instead opted for London, England, using his Swedish citizenship and passport to stay. In London, Peep's management, First Access Entertainment, who he had been signed with since August 2016 set the artist up with a home and studio.

Recording

This album marked Peep's first studio recording session and his first collaboration outside of his immediate circle. He began working with Rob Cavallo and eventually, Astasio, a member of the Invisible Men songwriting and production trio. Peep used to record on his microphone at home as well as at the studio, the $800 microphone being bought with his own money.

Commercial performance

Following the release of Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1, the album debuted in only one country, the Czech Republic on August 22, 2017. Following Lil Peep's death, Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 entered the Billboard 200 at #168 and sold 16,000 album-equivalent units the following week, peaking at #38.

Sequel album

Following Lil Peep's death, his producer Smokeasac revealed that Peep had made several unreleased songs, ones specifically made for a possible sequel to this album entitled Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 2. In a tweet shortly after Peep's death, Smokeasac tweeted that he and Peep made "beautiful music" during 2017 and that he still has unreleased music from him.

In February 2018, Smokeasac tweeted a confirmation that the album was coming, but would be released when the "time is right".

Not long before Lil Peep's promotional tour for the album was to end, he announced on Twitter that he would be releasing an EP entitled Goth Angel Sinner, consisting of three songs produced by Fish Narc. Columbia Records later acquired Peep's unreleased material, including the EP, although the demo version of the EP was leaked in October 2018. The EP released for streaming in October 2019.
