Background 
Throughout the Northern Hemisphere Summer months of 2013, Webby non-stop recorded music for his upcoming projects. In mid-2013, Chris Webby signed a record deal with independent powerhouse eOne Music to release his new projects and his Homegrown record label. Following that Webby revealed that he was working on an EP and his debut studio album, which he said will "highlight his transformation from a rapper to an artist." Upon release of the first single in August 2013, the EP was announced to be titled, Homegrown, and released digitally on October 29, 2013. Webby explained the title saying, "It is also my label, Homegrown Music Group. But in general, it is pretty much a word that represents my entire career as a whole. It’s been very organic, it’s been super homegrown. I am still here living in Connecticut. Of course, it also has the herbal references."

On September 4, 2013, Webby released the cover artwork to Homegrown. On October 24, 2013, Webby revealed that the EP's release had been pushed back to November 12, 2013, due to sample clearance issues. Upon revealing the track list, Webby revealed a guest appearance by Strange Music rapper Rittz, and contains production by Harry Fraud, DJ Burn One, Rich Kidd, Sap, and Ned Cameron among others.
