Three singles were released, including the title track and the pop crossover ballad "Love Always Finds a Way", the latter of which peaked at No. 26 on the Adult Contemporary chart in early 1986.[2] The album's title track became a minor hit on both the pop and R&B charts, supported by a Miami Vice-inspired music video.[3] In addition to Chaka Khan, contributing artists include Jennifer Holliday, Kashif and Robbie Buchanan.
