Background
In 2012, Emcee N.I.C.E. revealed plans for his debut studio album during an interview with the Las Vegas Informer Magazine  he was quoted as saying "The reason I wanted to do this album, was to bring fun back to music"... Then, original title for the album was "Way Back Now" that paid homage to the old school way of Hip-Hop music with the new school delivery.

The anticipation for the album picked up when (Actress/Fox News Correspondent) Stacey Dash was featured on a dance track entitled Life of The Party. The song received high praise from Russell Simmons Global Grind, saying that “Even though Emcee N.I.C.E. who is really Nice on the mic isn’t a household name as of yet, he soon will be.”. Media giant TMZ's TooFab exclusively debuted the music video and the album was slated to make a big impact. However Stacey Dash political support for Mitt Romney and statements against President Barack Obama caused a stir among the African American community and the backlash from it caused the public to turn on anything she was a part of, even though Emcee N.I.C.E. wasn't involved and due to the backlash the label and distributors postponed the release date.

In October 2014 Emcee N.I.C.E. without fan fair and a lot of hype, would go on to release the second single from the album entitled "Tonight" feat. Suhana Machete. The single would gain momentum spending 13 weeks from November 1, 2014 - February 2015 peaking at #8 on the US Billboard Hot Single Sales Chart in 2014 (Billboard Albums). During the production of the album N.I.C.E. would change the title of the album to reflect the direction of music in which was geared towards women and entitled it "However U Want It"
