Blake gained recognition following the release of three extended plays—The Bells Sketch, CMYK, and Klavierwerke—in 2010. He signed with A&M Records to release his self-titled debut album in 2011, which received critical praise and reached the top ten of the UK Albums Chart. Blake left A&M Records for its sister label, Republic Records, and released his second album, Overgrown, in 2013. The album also peaked within the top ten in the UK and entered the US Billboard 200. His third album, The Colour in Anything, was released in 2016. In 2018, he released the single 'King's Dead' with Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, and Future, which peaked at number 50 on the UK Singles Chart and number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100. This success preceded the release of his fourth album, Assume Form, in 2019, which became his highest-charting album on both the UK Albums Chart and Billboard 200.
