The project's loose party atmosphere is further represented on the cover artwork, which is a light parody of Ernie Barnes’ famous painting The Sugar Shack; the latter is best known for its inclusion on the cover of late, great soul legend Marvin Gaye's 1976 album I Want You, and was additionally parodied by retro-blaxploitation hip hop innovators Camp Lo on their classic 1997 debut album Uptown Saturday Night.
It was on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart for 3 weeks, peaking at #66.[3] Rap-A-Lot called it Scarface's best release.[4] Despite high praise from the label, the album would receive little promotion besides three dates opening for Scarface.[4]
Rob Quest is blind. Fadanuf Fa Erybody!! features a song called "I Can't See It" where he pokes lighthearted fun at his blindness.
