The single reached only number 96 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and number 34 on the Billboard R&B Chart. The single fared better in the UK, where it reached number 19 on the Gallup Singles Chart.

A CD release featuring various remixes was released in May 2005. Of note is that the track named So What The Fuss (Album Version) is in fact over a minute longer than the album version included on A Time To Love when the album was finally released later in 2005.
