In March 2019, Kim revealed that her new album would be titled 9 and added “There’s a lot of meaning behind that.” Later that month, she announced that the album would be released on May 17th, 2019. After a minor setback with her record label, eOne Music, that caused the album not be released on the original planned date, the project was postponed. On September 27, 2019, Kim released a second single titled "Found You" featuring City Girls and O.T. Genasis. The album later became available for pre-order on all digital-download platforms on October 4, 2019 (along with the track "Pray For Me" featuring Rick Ross and Musiq Soulchild) with a release date set for October 11, 2019. During one of the reunion episodes for Girls Cruise, Kim revealed that the album would be a two-part project, stating "I recorded so many songs. I have a part one and a part two." She also shared that her co-star and Instagram comedian Vena "Pretty Vee" Excell will make an appearance on the record as well. In an October 2019 BUILD Series video, Kim revealed that she will have a collaboration with Missy Elliott and Paris Hilton on the follow-up to 9.
