The first single, "Big Balla" featuring Birdman and Glasses Malone was released September 23, 2008, but due to its lackluster reviews and chart performance it was used as a promotional single instead. "So Sharp" featuring Jim Jones and Lil Wayne was set to be a single and was released through iTunes on April 14, 2009, but Jim Jones' label did not clear his name to be used on the album. As an effort to keep the song as his first single, Mack 10 simply changed the lineup adding Rick Ross along with Jazze Pha. The lead single "So Sharp" featuring Lil' Wayne, Rick Ross and Jazze Pha became available for digital download on July 7, 2009.
