Avalon describes the album as "a glam rap record about Hollywood's seedy underbelly and the ugliness of my own life".Almost Famous: Mickey Avalon Article on Blender :: The Ultimate Guide to Music and More
The popularity of the hidden track "My Dick" eclipsed that of the album itself, due to its being featured in Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay and The Rebound, as well as the TV series Hung and American Dad!. The song's lyrics are a series of humorous similes which favourably contrast the rappers' penises with that of another (unspecified) person. "My Dick" also inspired the response track "My Vag", the breakout song of rapper and actress Awkwafina.https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/dec/28/nora-lum-awkwafina-genitalia-feminist-message
"Jane Fonda" was featured briefly in an episode of Entourage and the films The Rebound and I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell. The single was a minor success in the US Billboard Alternative Songs chart, peaking at No. 36.
