The album generated one charting single, "Crew Deep", which peaked at #83 on Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Two other promo singles, "Your Favorite Joints" and "Ghostwriter," were excluded from the album but were added to its sampler release.[4] The lack of success from the album's lead single ("Crew Deep") resulted in a cancellation of the album's U.S. release and a granted promotional release in Canada was made instead.[3] However, Skillz would feature most of the album's tracks on his U.S. independent release, Confessions of a Ghostwriter (2005).[5]

gollark: I use `anyhow`, which allows me to magically store pretty much any error and add context to it and stuff, without having to have verbose conversion code.
gollark: This is because everything about it can fail at any time.
gollark: I feel like having convoluted `match` statements in my code for every operation would be very ææææ - in minoteaur there are sometimes even multiple `?`s per line.

gollark: Basically, if you use `?` on a `Result<T, io::Error>` your function must return `Result<T, io::Error>` (or something with an error type can store `io::Error`s).
