Background

[edit]

The mixtape's rollout began in early 2023 as they released several loose singles prior to the release of the mixtape, such as "Tears in My Amiri's",[4] "Barbie",[5] and "1 on 1"[6] before releasing the album's lead single, "Side Effects" on June 15, 2023.[7] Just a week prior to the release of the album, D-Block Europe released the second single from their mixtape, the highly anticipated, "Pakistan" featuring Clavish, while also announcing the album.[8] The mixtape's final single, "Potential" was released on July 6, 2023, just a day prior to the release of the mixtape.[9]

DBE World received positive reviews from critics. Writing for Clash', Shanté Collier-McDermott wrote that "D-Block Europe cement themselves within the top tier of the UK Rap scene on DBE World, deserving of their flowers as trap trailblazers", and that "this mixtape celebrates the life they worked hard for as they welcome peace not problems… and of course, it is not void of the spicy content fans love".[10]
