Who Do You Trust? was produced primarily by Colin Brittain and Nicholas Furlong, with Jason Evigan producing Top of the World; recording took place at Privacy Studios in London in 2018. Jacoby Shaddix co-wrote every track with the respective producers; no single outside songwriter dominates the album, reflecting a multi-collaborator approach across its twelve tracks. Who Do You Trust? reached number one on the UK Rock and Metal Albums Chart, the band's first number-one in that market.
Who Do You Trust? is the eighth studio album by Papa Roach, released in January 2019 on Eleven Seven Music and produced by Jason Evigan, Nick Furlong, and others, a heavy, modern-rock album built on electronic and trap influences alongside the band's core guitar-rock foundation. Shaddix wrote all lyrics; 'Elevate,' 'Who Do You Trust?,' and 'Feel Like Home' were the principal tracks, with the contemporary production reflecting the influence of Post Malone, Lil Peep, and the emo-rap crossover that was defining mainstream rock radio in 2019. The album debuted at number nine on the Billboard 200 and received mixed reviews, with critics noting the tension between the contemporary production approach and the band's established hard rock identity. Who Do You Trust? represents the band's most direct engagement with post-millennial popular culture production trends and their attempt to position themselves within the 2019 mainstream rather than against it. Who Do You Trust? represents the band's most direct attempt to engage with the post-emo, emo-rap production trends of 2018-2019, and its commercial performance, top-ten Billboard 200 debut, confirmed that the Papa Roach fanbase remained sufficiently broad and loyal to support commercial engagement with contemporary production trends rather than simply maintaining the band's established rock identity.
