After releasing his first album Don't Worry in 1995, Marcus Cardenas found a hip-hop band called Nastyboy Klick, whose first album The First Chapter had attracted the attention of local radio stations, producing a number regional hits (particularly the single "Down for Yours" featuring Roger Troutman).[1] Before recording the second Nastyboy Klick's album, Cardenas recruited several Phoenix-based artists to present him a so-called Desert Funk! Soundtrack compilation.
The album had thirteen tracks recorded with such artists as True Breed, Black Insane, Nastyboy Klick, CeCe Peniston, P.O.W. and Mandi.[2] The song "I Know You Want Me" was released as a single, reaching number nine on the U.S. Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 R&B Singles in 1998.[3]
