The official recording sessions for the album began in August 2018 and ended in May 2019. The album features a supernatural and spiritual imagery conceived by Brown, and handled by graffiti artist Saturno, visual artist Jeff Cole, and 3D artists Circle Circle Math and Sarper Baran. Musically, Indigo is an R&B record, that contains genres such as dancehall and bounce music as well. Its topics focus on spiritual love, sex, energy and vibrations, outlining a positive turn that follows a bad period in a person's life.

The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, making it his third number-one album in that country, and first in seven years, since Fortune (2012). Six official singles were released from Indigo, including: "Undecided", "Back to Love", "Wobble Up", featuring Nicki Minaj and G-Eazy, "No Guidance", featuring Drake, and "Heat", featuring Gunna. "No Guidance" became the highest charting song from the album on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 5, and topping the Rhythmic Airplay chart, until being unseated by the following released single, "Heat", at the top spot. In 2022, the song "Under The Influence", contained in the extended edition of the album, became a sleeper hit, receiving great success internationally, and following its rose to success, the song was officially released as a single, roughly three years following its original release.
