Skins: Album Guide, Artist and Facts

Skins (stylized in all caps) is the third studio album by American rapper XXXTentacion. It was posthumously released on December 7, 2018, through Bad Vibes Forever and Empire Distribution. It is one of the projects that XXXTentacion worked on before his death, and was released posthumously. The album features guest appearances from Travis Barker of Blink-182 and Kanye West. The album's theme sees XXXTentacion discuss heartbreak and mental turmoil. Genres on the album draw influence from lo-fi, nu metal, screamo, emo, punk rock, ambient, trap and acoustic. Skins was leaked to the internet three days before its official release date. The album's lead and only single, "Bad!", reached number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100. Although the album received mixed reviews from critics, with criticism aimed at the album's short length and "unfinished" nature, it was a commercial success, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200, making it XXXTentacion's second US number-one album. It sold 132,000 album-equivalent units in its first week in the US, of which 52,000 were pure album sales, and has since been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of 500,000 units in the US.
