Track 1, 10 features the artist Mira Craig who is best known in Norway.
There were two videos launched for promotion. One was "Real Soon" with the artists involved as DPGC that gained fair airplay, especially around December, and the other for "Shake That" directed by Mike Taylor of Robot Films and shot in Los Angeles but with St. Louis' color, red, dominating the set. Cameo appearances are made by Warren G and Zab Judah, with the latter being cut off because of his knock out win over St. Louis native Cory Spinks in February 2005 after the video was wrapped. ([1], [2]) The two music videos landed on the LAUNCH Music Videos Top 100 at the 37th and 35th spot respectively.
