Carter attempted a career as a solo artist in 2002 when he released Now or Never. The album reached number 17 on the Billboard 200 and was certified gold, both in the United States and Canada. The lead single, "Help Me," achieved considerable worldwide success, while the other single, "I Got You," was a minor hit in Europe.
Carter began work on his second solo album in 2003, but the recordings were aborted when the Backstreet Boys returned to the studio. One of the tracks from the earlier recording sessions was used as the theme song to the television series House of Carters in 2006. "Let It Go" was written by Nick Carter, Matthew Gerrard, and Bridget Louise Benenate.
Carter recorded a duet with pop singer Jennifer Paige called "Beautiful Lie" in 2009. In 2010, Nick Carter started recording new songs for his second solo album, working with Rami, Carl Falk, Toby Gad, Josh Hoge, Claude Kelly, and others. The album, titled I'm Taking Off, was released in Japan on February 2, 2011, in Germany on June 3, and in the US iTunes Store on May 24.
