The Humdinger was set to be released in 2005, a follow-up to the group's 2003 album Wooden Leather, but was delayed several times. It is the group's first studio album not to feature R. Prophet, who left the group to pursue a solo career, and it is also their first studio album released via their own independent record label Nappy Roots Entertainment Group.
Several tracks of the album, including "Good Day", were previously featured on their 2007 mixtape Innerstate Music. The song "Tinted Up" was previously presented on their 2008 mixtape Cookout Muzik.
