Though the album did not receive much mainstream attention, it was a popular underground release, partly due to the album's production. Wild Cowboys spawned two singles: "Hang 'Em High" b/w "Stages & Lights", which made it to #98 on the Billboard Hot 100, and "The Lump Lump", which reached #85 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and #20 on the Hot Rap Songs.

A sequel to the album, Wild Cowboys II, was released on March 23, 2010.
