After her debut album went gold, Fox returned to the studio to record her eponymous second album. She enlisted help from producers and music group Full Force, who were helping Lisa Lisa at that time, to produce some of the songs on the album. The album spawned the singles "Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now", "I Surrender (To the Spirit of the Night)", "I Promise You (Get Ready)", "True Devotion" and "Naughty Girls (Need Love Too)".
