The material on the album was recorded in 1997 and 1998, before Foundation; several songs mention 1997 and 1998.[4] Grand Puba mentioned in an interview with HipHopDX that this was the actual album that got them signed to Arista. After signing, the group kept on recording material, which resulted in Foundation.
While most of the album remained unreleased until 2007, a few of the songs had previously been released. "A Child is Born" originally appeared on the soundtrack of the 1997 movie Soul in the Hole, "Time is Running Out" was released on the soundtrack of the 1998 movie Slam, and a Buckwild remix of the song "Rockin' It" was released as a limited 12-inch single in 2000 with the D.I.T.C. track "Spend It" as the B-side.
