Assume Form is the fourth studio album from English singer, songwriter, and producer James Blake. It is the follow-up to his third studio album, The Colour in Anything, which was released in May 2016. The twelve-track album boasts features from Travis Scott, André 3000, Metro Boomin, and more. The album is heavily inspired by James Blake’s relationship with actress Jameela Jamil, whom Blake has been in a relationship with since 2015. On December 4, 2018, James Blake announced a North American tour that stretched from February to March 2019. This announcement ignited rumors of an ensuing album since Blake had not released an album since early 2016. On January 3, 2019, Amazon France accidentally leaked the album’s title, tracklist, and guest appearances when it made the album available for pre-order with an incorrect release date of January 25, 2019. On the following day, LED billboards in London and New York City portrayed graphics with the album’s title, which Blake would subsequently post to his social media. He also announced a website, AssumeForm.com, that contained an early preview of songs from the album. After continuing to tease Assume Form over the next few days, Blake officially confirmed the album’s title, tracklist, and release date on January 10, 2019, along with the official pre-order. He also announced three United Kingdom tour dates for April 2019. Assume Form was led by the single “Don’t Miss It,” which was released on May 24, 2018. Blake also released two promotional singles, “Mile High” and “Lullaby for My Insomniac,” less than twelve hours before the album was released.
