Contents

After the success of UTP's single "Nolia Clap", Rap-A-Lot released a seven-track EP to capitalize on the single's success. It contained both the original version on "Nolia Clap", a new remix of the song, and a few unreleased tracks that did not make the cut for The Beginning of the End... . The EP did not fare as well as the single however, and only reached number 65 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
