A deal was not struck but an A&R rep assisted Brown with the recording and release of a mixtape Detroit State of Mind.
New York recording sessions placed him in the company of several contemporaries including G-Unit's Tony Yayo.

While it was rumored that Brown would be signing to G-Unit label head 50 Cent allegedly balked due to the rapper's fashion sense (which included a preference for skinny jeans).
Brown eventually found a home at Fool's Gold where he issued XXX his highest-profile mixtape up to that point. At the end of 2012 Brown announced that the follow-up to XXX had been recorded.
