Of the album, Alaksa quipped - “Poundcake is my second solo album. It’s sort of like my first album, Anus, but on steroids. This album came about during a particularly bizarre period in my life which was amazing but also terrible. But those times sometimes give us great music, such as “Stun” featuring Gia Gunn which is an enduring classic which shall last throughout the ages.”

Poundcake,  produced by Tomas Costanza (DRAG:The Musical, Macklemore, Darren Criss) was originally released by Producer Entertainment Group on October 14, 2016. The album features RuPaul's Drag Race contestants Adore DelanoGia Gunn, and Miss Fame, and drag performer Jackie Beat.

"Puppet" was released as the lead single, and an accompanying music video was directed by Santiago Felipe.
