Brockhampton was an American boy band/rap collective[5][6][7][8] founded in 2014[note 1] in San Marcos, Texas. Led by Kevin Abstract and formed partially through the online music discussion forum KanyeToThe, the group's final line-up consisted of vocalists Abstract, Matt Champion, Merlyn Wood, and Dom McLennon, vocalists/producers Joba, Bearface, and Jabari Manwa and producers Romil Hemnani and Kiko Merley, as well as graphic designer Henock "HK" Sileshi, photographer Ashlan Grey, web designer Roberto Ontenient (who also featured prominently in voice skits), and manager Jon Nunes.

After releasing the mixtape All-American Trash in 2016, the group achieved critical acclaim and commercial success with the studio albums Saturation, Saturation II, and Saturation III, which were released in quick succession from June to December 2017. In March 2018, the group signed to RCA Records, and in May founding member Ameer Vann was removed from the group amid allegations of sexual misconduct. After repeated delays, Iridescence (2018), the group's major label debut, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart and earned the group a nomination for "Best International Group" at the Brit Awards.

Ginger, the group's fifth album, was released in August 2019, and produced the double platinum single "Sugar". In April 2021, Ginger was followed by Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine, which was originally announced as the group's penultimate album. In January 2022, the group announced an indefinite hiatus following their upcoming appearance at Coachella Festival in April. The Family, advertised as the group's final record, was released in November 2022. TM was released the next day with no prior announcement, serving as the true final Brockhampton album.

Although generally categorized as a hip-hop collective, the group received attention for branding themselves as an "All-American boyband", in what the group called an effort to redefine the term.[9][10]
