Marking a departure in style for Wayne, it is a rap metal and rock record with occasional hip-hop influence. The album's production was primarily handled by Cool & Dre, DJ Infamous, DJ Nasty & LVM, Kevin Rudolf, and J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200, selling 176,000 copies in its first week. The album became Wayne's seventh top-ten album in the United States and produced four singles, with the lead "Prom Queen" peaking at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and "Drop the World" being certified 4x Platinum in the US.
