Background

On October 9, French Montana's brother Cokeboy Zack appeared on Revolt TV announcing the release of the mixtape Coke Zoo, a collaboration between French Montana and Fetty Wap. On October 12, actress Sanaa Lathan, rumored to be dating French at the time, uploaded an early version of the mixtape cover on her Instagram, further confirming the upcoming release.

The two rappers had recently accompanied Chris Brown on his nationwide One Hell of a Nite Tour, alongside the likes of Migos, Omarion and August Alsina. During which, the two had recorded eight tracks together which culminated in the Coke Zoo mixtape, a play on French's "Coke Boys" and Fetty's "Zoo Gang" rap collectives, respectively. The record features five collaboration tracks between French Montana and Fetty Wap, in addition to two tracks from Fetty Wap, and another five tracks from French Montana.

Critical reception

Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork praised the chemistry between the two rappers but felt that "Many of the ideas and sounds on Coke Zoo feel like Fetty Wap B-sides and leftovers."
