The album achieved modest success on the Billboard charts, making it to #103 on the Billboard 200 and #16 on the Top R&B Albums chart. The two singles released found greater success; "New Jack Swing", which features New jack swing pioneer Teddy Riley, reached No. 1 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart, while "Juicy" made it to No. 6 on the same chart.

This was the only album by the group to include member Brandon Mitchell, as he would be shot down less than a year later on August 8, 1990.

gollark: Technically, proof of stake is a thing. Though it has its own horrible problems.
gollark: I read somewhere that the really low price is more of a marketing gimmick, hence why lots of places have a quantity limit, and the price of the version with headers reflects the actual price more accurately.
gollark: It *can work* as one, sure. Although so can ESP32 microcontroller things, which might be cheaper.
gollark: My tab count has been beaten? Troubling.
gollark: I can even get away with 700 open tabs with some fraction of my 8GB of RAM. Obviously not all of them are actively loaded and running.
