A drug refers to any chemical substance that affects physiological functions, moods, perceptions, and consciousness. By extension drugs stand to alter or interrupt interpersonal interactions, and the widespread use of drugs, may even alter the form of entire social networks. This album examines the use and abuse of drugs in human societies. Among other drugs, the album specifically explores the history and prevalence of opiods, marijuana, alcohol, and tobacco.

One of the reasons Juul became so popular was that its founders discovered a way to give people a massive dose of nicotine during initial puffs. As founder Adam Bowen explained, "[We found that] when you combine nicotine with certain organic acids in specific ways [to produce nicotine salts] you can deliver nicotine via an electronic cigarette in just the same way it occurs in regular cigarettes."

Mornidine, also known as Pipamazine, was introduced to the U.S. market in 1959 by G. D. Searle & Company. Mornidine was a prescription drug that helped pregnant women cope with morning sickness. As the marketing strategy attests, Mornidine seemed to satisfy the sexist viewpoint that morning sickness was primarily a problem because it interfered with a woman's domestic duties. Mornidine was eventually withdrawn from the U.S. market in 1969, after reports that it caused liver damage.
