The album peaked at number 30 on the Billboard 200, number 10 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and topped the Soundtrack Albums charts in the United States.

Its lead single, "I'm a King (Remix)", reached at number 67 on the Billboard Hot 100 and later certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling 500,000 units in the US alone. An accompanying music video was released for the song which featured P$C, Lil' Scrappy and Lil' Jon in the city of Atlanta and clips from Hustle & Flow.
