The album was supported by "Chairman" and "King James", two promotional singles that didn't make the cut.
==Background and composition==
M.I took two years recording the album. He describes the album as a collaborative album due to the number of music personnel who contributed to it. ''The Chairman'' was initially slated to be released in June 2013, but was pushed back due to the rapper partaking in other business ventures. In a 2014 interview with ''Sunrise Daily'', M.I said that Jesse Jagz's departure from Chocolate City also delayed the album. In an interview with ''Leadership'' newspaper, M.I said he was inspired to name the album ''The Chairman'' after hearing people address him as such. The album comprises 17 tracks and every track, excluding "The Middle", has an opposite. On October 22, 2014, the album was made available for per order. On October 29, 2014, the album's official cover art and tracklist were released. Also on October 29, 2014, M.I held a listening party for the album at Industry Nite. He performed alongside Jesse Jagz and dedicated the record "Brother" to him.
''The Chairman'' encompasses several layers of M.I's autobiography. On "The Beginning/Nobody", the album's opener, M.I plays the role of a crazy teacher with his voice. On "Monkey", a song that features the comedian Chigurl, M.I raps with a gospel flow over a Highlife instrumental. On "Human Being", the rapper reminds listeners that celebrity is not all its hyped up to be. On "Rich", M.I narrates his grass to grace story. "On Brother", he enlists Nosa to help him depict the cracks in Chocolate City. "Shekpe" is a song that celebrates street life and low-cost highs. On "Enemies", M.I and Patoranking tell listeners that the world of celebrity is a land filled with haters. "Yours" is an ode to his core fans who supported him from day one. On "The End/The Chairman", M.I tells listeners that the real chairman is God.〔
