On April 25, 2000, Fear of Flying was released and debuted at number fifteen on the Billboard 200 album chart with first week sales of 72, 000 copies.

Upon initial release, the album seemed to be suffering the dreaded sophomore slump.

The album's first single " The Best of Me ", featuring Jadakiss, under-performed on the charts, not even making it into the pop Top 40.
