The album follows the disappointing commercial performance to 2010's Libra Scale and is Ne-Yo's first album with new label Motown Records after being appointed as the label's senior vice president for A&R. The album contains songs that crossover different genres of music, combining elements of R&B, pop and dance-pop.

American singer and songwriter Ne-Yo has released six studio albums, fifteen singles and several other appearances with other artists. In 2006, Ne-Yo's debut album, In My Own Words, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in the United States.

Ne-Yo opens his fifth studio album, . by revealing a few shortcomings. On the ’60s-soul-influenced Cracks in Mr. Perfect, the singer admits that he spends an obscene amount of money popping bottles in the club, has trouble maintaining relationships because he is surrounded by women, and basically becomes more of an idiot with every extra million I get. After that unflinching look at his personal flaws, Ne-Yo spends the rest of the album unwittingly revealing his professional weaknesses - which also have to do with excess.
