[edit] Chart Success

The album debuted #163 on the Billboard 200, failing on many levels, especially with the amount of promotion from Motown Records. This eventually resulted in the label dropping Benzino a mere 4 months after the album was released. Surprisingly, this album is still Benzino's best selling album, selling 75,000 copies. However, it was also a critical failure, getting mostly negative reviews.
