The song was produced by and featured J. Lacy and contained more of an R&B style.[2] "Fantasy Girl", released on July 13, 2010,[3] was a retro-dance influenced track featuring vocals by the One Block Radius singer Marty James who has worked with many artists such as Snoop Dogg, E-40 and Tech N9ne. The third promotional single "Good for My Money", features Lloyd, and was released on October 5, 2010.[4]

The first official single, "Go Girl", which features E-40, is a pop rap track and was released on November 30, 2010.[5] Currently,[when?] "Go Girl" has been the most successful song on the album.
