On October 25, 2010, Spose announced through a series of Facebook posts (which were linked to Twitter) that he felt that We Smoked It All Vol. 2 had too many original songs to be considered a mixtape. Partially because of this, he decided to create a project, Happy Medium, with many original songs that were originally supposed to be on We Smoked It All Vol. 2, in addition to other material. He also said that new songs from Happy Medium would be released at 4:20 PM Eastern Time every Wednesday up until the release of Happy Medium.[15] On December 17, 2010, Spose released Happy Medium for streaming on his Facebook page. The physical album was released in Bull Moose Music stores in late December 2010, and it was released on iTunes in January 2011.[16]
We Smoked It All Vol. 2 was released intentionally on April 20, 2011, at midnight.
