Following a further background check, it was discovered that Yayo had an outstanding warrant for a previous such charge: as a result, he was sentenced for bail jumping, and spent the entirety of 2003 in prison at Lakeview Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility.
[3][4] During this time, G-Unit rose to mainstream prominence following the commercial success of 50 Cent's album Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2003), which sold 872,000 copies in its 1st week on sale in the United States[5] and contained the Billboard number 1 singles "In Da Club" and "21 Questions".
[3][7] Following his release, Tony Yayo appeared on several mixtapes to increase his exposure amongst underground hip hop audiences, and began to record his debut album, titled Thoughts of a Predicate Felon (2005), almost immediately after leaving prison,[7] although he was still detained under house arrest and required to wear an ankle bracelet, and thus could not personally promote any of the album's material.

"So Seductive" was written by Tony Yayo, 50 Cent and Michael Harper,[18][19] and was produced by the latter under his production name Punch,[19] who was also responsible for the song's instruments.
[11] It is a hip hop song with influences of club music,[20] and is backed by a looped production containing elements of synthesizers and string instruments, and a repetitive bassline.
[24] "So Seductive" received generally positive reviews from music critics, with many naming it a standout track from Thoughts of a Predicate Felon.
"[25] David Jeffries of Allmusic described "So Seductive" as a "hooky party number" that Yayo "handles extremely well", citing it as an example of how he "[is] craftier and smarter than expected considering the thug myth built around him".
[11] Writing for The Michigan Daily, Evan McGarvey observed that the song works as a "serviceable first single", calling it an "open-palm slap of a tune".
He also complimented 50 Cent's performance, writing that he "wisely takes a verse of his own and laces the track with an easy, Richard Scary hook".
[22] However, Fiona McKinlay of musicOMH denounced Tony Yayo's rapping on the song, calling his vocals "really pretty disappointing".
Following the car briefly being stop-searched by the police, the rappers drive to a mansion and enter a party attended by several artists of G-Unit, including Lloyd Banks, Young Buck and Olivia.
