"Fly Jets Over Boston" features rapper Curren$y, whom Adams had been working with for a while.[3]

Controversy

Rumors and reports circulated that Adams charged the entirety of his album's first 65,000 purchases to one credit card, which were later proven false with facts that showed all of the purchases were from around the U.S.[4]
