Background and release
Brown co-wrote all seven songs on the EP, with co-writing songwriters being Shy Carter, Sam Ellis and Matt McGinn. Dann Huff produced or co-produced five of the seven songs.[3]
Mixtape Vol. 1 includes the single "Cool Again", a pre-release from April 2020,[4][5][6] and the lead single off the EP.[7]
It was followed by "Worldwide Beautiful" in June 2020, aimed to highlight peace and equality; it benefits the Boys and Girls Club of America.[8] It also gained notability being released after the murder of George Floyd.[3] The music video, winner of the 2021 ACM Awards Video of the Year, was filmed partly on the property of session and touring bassist Todd Ashburn in the Nashville area, and in downtown Mt. Pleasant, Tennessee.[9]
"Be Like That", a collaboration with Swae Lee and Khalid, was the last release in July 2020, immediately preceding the release of the EP on August 14.[10] Brown also had some chart success with the track "Worship You",[11] which was later released as a single to country radio.[12]
