Guilt is the second studio album from Washington Heights, Manhattan rapper, Mims.[14] The album was released on April 7, 2009.
Singles
The first single for the album is "Move (If You Wanna)".[15] Later, a video was shot for the single as a promotion for the album, revealing its title to be Guilt, and premiered February 14, 2009.[14]
Mims has stated that his song "Donkie Booty" featuring Trey Songz will not be on the album because it was leaked.[16] Many other songs too leaked on Internet but it is not confirmed whether they were recorded for the album.
The song "Rock 'N Rollin'", produced by Jim Jonsin and featuring rapper Tech N9ne, sees the two rappers incorporate the names of several notable rock bands into their lyrics. Jake Paine of HipHopDX made a comparison, based on the concept, to GZA's "Labels", which incorporated hip hop imprints into its lyrics in a similar fashion.[17]
The track "Love Rollercoaster" is also featured on Letoya Luckett's second album, Lady Love.
Sales
The album debuted at #53 on the Billboard 200, selling 12,400 copies in its first week.[18]
