The album spawned two singles: "Get Rich to This", which peaked at No. 65 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and No. 59 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay, and "What It Ain't (Ghetto Enuff)".
The album was the group's last album with the original four members until Age Against the Machine in 2013.
Former National Football League cornerback Asante Samuel has a tattoo on his left arm that says "Get Rich To This", because he liked that song in college.[8]
