It spawned the successful single, «Backflip», which failed to chart on the Hot 100, but was a number one hit for Raven on Radio Disney. The album has sold over 512,000 copies world wide. It also hit number 15 in Canada.
Raven recently released her fourth album, Raven‑Symoné, on April 29, 2008, when she was 22. It also hit the Billboard 200, but at a lower position. It has so far peaked at number 159 on the Billboard 200, however it has no promotion. Raven's fourth album is viewed as her most mature and best album by most of her fans and critics.

Raven was in the group, The Cheetah Girls, for their first and third albums as the film's soundtracks, but is not in the official group. The group has gone onto record an official debut album and a Christmas album.
