The album features production by J-Remy,Jose E Duran, Robert Larow, Bobby Bass and Alan Sampson. It was recorded in New York and London and mixed by "Supa Engineer Duro" with Jordan "DJ Swivel" Young in New York City.[2] Jared Cotter co-wrote six songs on the album.

Reception
Critical reception
Like Me Against Myself the album received similar reviews. BBC noted: "From one angle Ride It – Jay Sean's comeback single from last year – saw the Hounslow-born artist in exactly the same place as he was when he broke through in 2003 with Dance With You: Talking about cruising the clubs and making eyes at the ladies."[3] The Guardian said: "My Own Way is a decent record, but erroneously titled...He has lost - not for ever, one hopes - the stuff that made him stand out."[4]
Charts and certifications
The album peaked at number six in the UK Albums Chart.
