Background

All that was known about Oneirology throughout most of 2010 was the name, but details were finally announced in January 2011 by the hip hop specialized site HipHopDX, followed by the album cover and track listing, respectively. In the official website of QN5 Music, the production was announced, and was just by the member Kno.

The album cover was designed by the Dutch artist Lois van Baarle, according to CunninLynguists official site, and shows a red-haired woman sleeping in a bed, hands clutching her pillow and sheets.

Singles

The first single was "Stars Shine Brightest (In The Darkest Of Night)", that features Rick Warren and was produced by Kno, and was the first leak of the album.

The second single is "Hard As They Come (Act I)", featuring Freddie Gibbs, written by the group and produced by Kno, and was the second leak of the album.

The third single is "Darkness (Dream On)", featuring Anna Wise of Sonnymoon and was the third leak of the album.
