As Rockwell had done on his previous album, he solicited the help of another prominent recording artist to sing with him on the first single. Instead of Michael Jackson, however, this time he got Stevie Wonder to record the song "He's a Cobra" with him.^[2] The song was a flop.

The next single, "Peeping Tom" appeared on the soundtrack to The Last Dragon,^[3] but it too was a disappointment.

In late 2021, the album became available on iTunes for the first time.
