The single fared worse than the first single peaking at number 17 on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles (#117 Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs).[4] As a result the single was scrapped and the album was delayed.

The song peaked at #23 on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles (#123 Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs).
