The Fool is the fifth studio album by Bladee. All songs on the project are produced by Lusi, along with other producers like Loesoe, who appears multiple times on the album. The project features Lusi’s signature trap drums but many of the songs use pop and trance melodies. It was debuted along with a video for “The Fool Intro.”

The cover and tracklist of the album were leaked on May 14, 2021, with a planned release date of June 11. A snippet of “Let’s Ride” was also leaked on May 26 which is likely why the project was released early two days later.
