The song was one out of three songs from the Barbershop 2: Back in Business soundtrack that were issued as a single. Released as Cole's debut single through A&M Records in March 2004, the song received generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics but unfortunately received little promotion which most likely impacted it's public recognition. Nonetheless, "Never" managed to appear on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, peaking at number seventy-one.[1]
