Career

Shop Boyz Artist Spotlight The Shop Boyz Behind Indiestage

After signing with Universal Republic Records, Shop Boyz began to record their first and only album, Rockstar Mentality, which featured rock-influenced hip-hop. The album's lead single, "Party Like a Rockstar," was released in May 2007 and achieved commercial success, reaching number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 and becoming the highest-selling ringtone of 2007. Rockstar Mentality was released on June 19, 2007, debuting at #11 on the US Billboard 200 but receiving a poor critical and commercial reception, selling fewer than 200,000 copies to date. The followup single, "They Like Me", performed poorly, peaking at #98. The group was eventually dropped by Universal.
