Background

In July 2013, through his Twitter account, Apathy announced he was working on a new extended play titled Connecticut Casual. Apathy later stated on Facebook that the EP would be available for free download. It was initially to be released mid-April 2014 but the date was pushed back to May 2014, in the light of his super-group Army of the Pharaohs' album In Death Reborn, being released commercially in April. On March 19, 2014, Apathy revealed that Connecticut Casual will be an album instead of an EP now and will drop on June 3, 2014.

Connecticut Casual has been described as an album that uncovers the darker sides of New England that most people are unfamiliar with. "From the opulent lifestyle of the Kennedy family, to the economically destitute neighbourhoods of Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Mansions and projects. Tennis courts and bodegas. Summers spent on the shores of the Atlantic. Mysterious meetings in Masonic lodges. Homicides that go unsolved due to inadequate law enforcement budgets in poor areas, to literally getting away with murder by being well connected to East Coast royalty".[citation needed]
