It was released on March 27, 1990, via Warner Bros. Records. The eleven track full-length album features a remix song of his 1988 single "Syndication", and singles "Never Missin' a Beat" (released in 1989), "The Rhythm" and "I Got the Knack" (both dropped in 1990). Single "The Rhythm" featured guest appearances from his Rhyme Syndicate bandmates Donald D and Ice-T, as well as an early appearance from the Brand New Heavies singer N'Dea Davenport who is credited as "Diva", and "I Got the Knack" featured scratches provided by DJ Lethal, whom he would later join to form House of Pain.

Critical reception

| rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = | rev2 = Robert Christgau | rev2score = | rev3 = The Encyclopedia of Popular Music | rev3Score = | rev4 = Orlando Sentinel | rev4score = The Orlando Sentinel opined, "To Everlast's disadvantage, Ice-T takes a star turn on 'The Rhythm'... His brief time on the mike highlights the fact that he's a rap heavyweight while Everlast is at best an up-and-coming welterweight."
