Based Boys is the debut album by Bay Area rap group The Pack. The album was released on October 30, 2007 by Jive Records.[2]
The street single off the album was titled "I Look Good". The first single off the album was titled "In My Car". "Booty Bounce Bopper" was used in one of the early Hyphy videos on the OFWGKTA channel.
Music videos
The first video was shot for "In My Car" in Los Angeles by famed director Dale "Rage" Restinghini. The second video was shot on December 13, 2007 in New York for "I Look Good".
Other videos off the album include music videos shot for "Vans" and "I'm Shinin'" shot previously to help promote Skateboards 2 Scrapers EP. A low budget music video was also shot for "Booty Bounce Bopper".
Sales
Even though their first EP Skateboards 2 Scrapers received fairly good sale reception, their debut album Based Boys failed to do so. The album sold a disappointing 2,300 copies in its first week according to Soundscan and Billboard.[3] The album peaked at #14 on Billboard's Heatseeker chart.
