“Miss the Rage" is the highly-anticipated lead single to Trip At Knight. Produced by Dutch producer Loesoe and featuring Playboi Carti, this song is Trippie’s most awaited release in recent years. Trippie explained the meaning behind the title to XXL the day before the song released:

I been locked away. I’m one of them people that’s at the festivals, I come out going crazy out the rips. I’m ready to get back to my stage presence. I’m tired of sitting in the house ’cause that’s all I been doing.

The original “Miss the Rage” snippet received a considerable amount of hype after its preview on Instagram on December 21, 2020. As the song’s intro was gaining traction on TikTok, fans started to fantasize about Playboi Carti’s appearance on the track, using unreleased Carti vocals to create highly popular fan-made remakes of the song.

In February 2021, the leak of a groupchat screenshot made public Trippie’s intention of featuring Carti on the song. Trippie confirmed Carti’s involvement one month later by sharing a screenshot of their chat in a now-deleted Instagram post.

On May 4, 2021, Trippie Redd finally revealed the cover art and announced the song’s release three days later. The song’s official music video was released three weeks later on May 27, 2021.
