## Background
Nigerian record label Mo' Hits Records, co-founded by D'banj and Don Jazzy (D'Prince's brother), was home to some of the biggest names in the industry, including D'Prince himself, Wande Coal, Dr Sid, and Kayswitch. However, creative differences led to the label's dissolution, with D'banj founding DB Records and Don Jazzy establishing Mavin Records on 8 May 2012. On the same day, Mavin Records debuted with the compilation album *Solar Plexus*, featuring popular songs such as "Oma Ga" and "Take Banana".

D'Prince's journey to *Frenzy!* had been long-awaited. While he gained early recognition with tracks like "Omoba" and "Ooze" (featuring Wande Coal) in 2009, his debut album faced delays despite his increasing presence in the industry. During this period, he remained in the spotlight with notable features such as Samklef's "Molowo Noni" alongside Ice Prince and Wizkid, as well as his own hit single "Give It To Me" featuring D'banj in 2010. After the split of Mo' Hits, D'Prince joined Mavin Records, where he became the first artist to release a full-length album under the newly formed label.

Three singles titled "Goody Bag", "Call Police", and "Real G" were released on 31 October 2012. "Real G" features M.I. All three tracks were produced by Don Jazzy. The same day, D'Prince released the video for the remix of his song "Take Banana" off *Solar Plexus* (2012). "Goody Bag" was nominated for Best Pop Single at the 2013 edition of the Headies.

D'Prince released the video to the second track, "Journey of a Thousand Miles" featuring Don Jazzy and Wande Coal, on 5 August 2013. The video was shot and directed by Godfather Productions in South Africa.

## Critical reception
Ayomide Tayo of *Nigerian Entertainment Today* described the album as a flashy but inconsistent debut that excels in delivering party anthems but lacks substance overall. He praised tracks like "Journey of a Thousand Miles" for their inspirational tone but criticized others for weak lyrics, noting, "You may have one hell of a ride bumping this album, but you’ll be left with a nasty hangover the morning after." The album received a rating of 3/5. The review received backlash from D'Prince's labelmate Dr Sid, who criticized the 3/5 rating and accused the review of bias. Defending D'Prince on Twitter, Dr. Sid described the album as "banging" and questioned the credibility of the reviewers, stating, "Abi dem pay you money to knock the hardworking boy down?"

A writer for *TayoTV* who goes by the moniker Teaponpi described *Frenzy!* by D'Prince as an album with strong production and catchy beats, but criticized it heavily for weak lyrics and lack of artistic direction. While a few tracks featuring guest artists like Tiwa Savage, Wizkid, and Wande Coal stood out, most solo efforts were dismissed as shallow or poorly written. Rating it 6/10, the writer concluded "If you are willing to listen to an album with great beats and careless for lyrics, i recommend *Frenzy!* but if you want something with lyrical content? Yeah.. keep it moving!".
