The album's lead single "Can I Get . .was an instant party anthem when it dropped in the summer of '98, thanks to its Southern bounce-flavored beat and saucy, battle-of-the-sexes concept that was likely inspired by Trick Daddy and Trina's spring hit "Nann Nigga. The song gave Jay his first real pop hit, settling in for a long stay on urban radio just as his duet with Jermaine Dupri "Money Ain't a Thang" and his Streets Is Watching single "It's Alright" were starting to lose steam.
