The-Dream produced Love King with fellow songwriters/producers Christopher "Tricky" Stewart and Los Da Mystro. It expands on the suite-like conceit and themes of the singer's previous albums, exploring traditional R&B themes of love, sex, money, and infidelity, with sensibilities of arrogance and swagger. The music has been noted for its layered sonic elements and detailed production.
Love King debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 58,000 copies in its first week. Two singles were released in support of the album – the title track and "Make Up Bag" – and achieved moderate chart success. Critically, the album was well received for The-Dream's production and sexually boastful lyrics, and it was included in several publications' year-end lists of 2010's best records.
