The album was originally to be released through Death Row Records in 1996, but the album was shelved due to legal problems at Death Row Records, and he wasn't able to release it until the summer of 1998. By that time, the popularity of West Coast hip hop had greatly diminished and the album only managed to make it to number 58 on the Billboard 200[4] and number 20 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
Ironically, Breakaway was actually secretly funded by Suge. LOL.

Still bump the hardest man in town daily.One of my favourite songs ever!
Breakaway bought Nate Dogg’s contract from Death Row for something like $500k so I’m skeptic of Suge supposedly funding the label. Reggie has spoke on this before.What would Suge even have to gain by starting a side label with no public attachment to Death Row? Death Row itself was not doing so hot at the time.

She told me one day she received a call telling her it was her last day and the company was done. And when she went to collect unemployment, she found out the company wasn't paying taxes, they had no record of her working for them and she couldn't collect. She said it was all super shady. She did however hook me up with a bunch of promo CD's and a signed Nate Dogg Poster.
