On June 22, 2010, “Statistics,” was released as a single where it reached 19 on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop songs list on September 4, 2010.

The song was inspired by Steve Harvey’s book, "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man:What Men Really Think About Love, Relationships, Intimacy, and Commitment," and belts out statistics such as,

"25% of all men are unstable,

25% of all men can't be faithful

30% of them don't mean what they say

And 10% of the remaining 20 is gay

That leaves you a 10% chance of ever finding your man"

This is sung to a “lullaby-like piano melody”. The song also offers advice on keeping that good one, once he is found.

"Tell him that you're celibate

And if he wants some of your goodies he gon' have to work for it"
