The album marked the culmination of a joint collaborative process dating back to 2005, when Omarion's vocal contributions to Bow Wow's "Let Me Hold You," helped the song reach #4 on the Hot 100, giving both artists their first-ever Top 10 single. The title of the album was inspired by the 1997 film of the same name starring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage, and has sold over 400,000 copies in the United States since its release.

"Me and O have been trying to put this together for so many years, and now we've got the opportunity to do it," Bow Wow told Billboard.com earlier this month. "We're in the creative process right now, coming up with ideas daily, so the process is real smooth. We're anxious to make this whole thing happen. It's gonna be a special event. It's gonna be crazy, something the people have been waiting on -- the girls have been waiting on -- for years. O's one of my best friends. Anytime you get a chance to work with somebody you're best friends with, it's not even work, it's like working with family."

Didn't want to be just another girl

Baby, I ain't feeling another girl (I got the Phantom outside, baby)
The only girl (let me get 'em)

You know my swag soon as I walk in, fresh
Was all on flash I was so sparkling, click
When I walk past there they go talking, ha
They want me I do not want them, nope
Ma, I seen you since you stepped in, damn
You're such a princess, need to be with a prince then, me
I'm so turned on by your body dimensions, woo
Sub me out O, maybe you can convince her

You got your mind set (yeah)
Girl, you the finest (yeah-yeah)
It's perfect timing
I just wanna grind it

She said that she (ooh)

Didn't want to be just another girl

I don't want to make it seem it's just sexual but
I really, really, wanna undress you
Don't you worry 'bout what the rest do
Yup, a couple tried to pull me to the restroom
So, hurry, hurry, hurry, come to the rescue (come on)
'Cause you the only one I want to be next to (oh)

I had my mind set, yeah
Since our eyes met, yeah yeah
Girl, you so fine, yeah (damn)
Wanna get inside it (so fine)

She said that she

(Well, let's go)
Baby, I ain't feeling another girl
The only girl

So come on, girl
You should be in my drop, in fact you should be on top
If you don't, I'll (and if you don't)
Be lonely
I'll be lonely (I'll be so lonely, girl)
I'll probably leave the club alone
But I want to take you home (I need someone to hold)
Ain't no other girls in here, I say (can I hold you?)
Girl, I only want you

She said that she (ooh)
(She said)
Didn't want to be just another girl

So come on, girl
If you don't, I'll be lonely
Said I'll be lonely
Oh, I need someone to hold
Can I hold you?
Girl, I only want you

She said that she
Didn't want to be just another girl
I don't wanna go 'less she leaves with me

Baby, I ain't feeling another girl

He's telling the girl that he usually doesn't go out of his way for someone like this but he's ready to make an exception. He's letting her know that she's the only one who's got his attention tonight.
