The album's lead single, "Oochie Coochie", became a top-40 hit, peaking at number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning a gold certification four months after its release then on to platinum. Despite the success of "Oochie Coochie", Lovers Lane could only reach gold status. In 1996, M.C. Brains (now using the name M.C. Brainz) released a second album entitled Brainwashed for Ichiban Records.

gollark: Well, you can detect a decent amount of them, sure (although I have no idea how you know how many you didn't detect), but *stopped* seems unlikely. I think your measurements are wrong.
gollark: Your "phase shift technology" is merely a special case of GTech™ exotic geometry manipulation and [DATA EXPUNGED] ontological apiomemetics, which we of course have countermeasures for.
gollark: I'm sure you'd like to think so.
gollark: GTech™ beam/laser equipment is already built to deal with substantially greater attenuation by atmosphere and such.
gollark: You have, *at best*, some time travel. As I said, your spies were useless and your beam interceptors essentially meaningless against GTech™ systems.
