It peaked at number 14 on the U.S Billboard 200 albums chart. It featured three singles: "Ta Da", "Superwoman Pt. II", and "Gangsta (Love 4 the Streets)". Background{{Unreferenced section|date=August 2016}}Recording for the album began in 1998 when Mo was signed to Elektra; two singles ("If You Wanna Dance" & "5 Minutes") were released as potential lead singles. However, the lack of proper charting performance from both singles resulted in a postponement for Based on a True Story; both singles would also be subsequently removed from the album project. In 2000, Mo and her record labels (EastWest/Elektra), released "Ta Da" as the official lead single. The song managed to peak at 95 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 21 on Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Much like the situation of former labelmate Torrey Carter, Elektra Records was displeased with the Billboard Hot 100 charting performance of "Ta Da," resulting in disputes between Mo and Elektra executives. The dispute would later develop over Mo's image and the follow-up single, "Superwoman." By 2001, Mo later convince Elektra to release "Superwoman" under the "Part II" version featuring Fabolous. Elektra agreed and released the remixed single; the song would go on to peak at number 11 on Billboard Hot 100 and number 4 on Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, making it Mo's most successful single to date. Mo went on to release another single titled, "Gangsta", which failed to match the success of her preceding single. Singles
