Three singles were released from this album, "Here Now" featuring Mystro, "Catch Phrase" featuring Daniel Merriweather, and "Hold On" featuring labelmate Max White. In 2007 he founded the record label Crooked Eye with DJ Flagrant and J-Skub.〔(DJ Flagrant interview )〕 The label's first release was a mixtape by Melbourne MC Illy (which Phrase also appears on).
