P.M. Dawn's 1995 album Jesus Wept was unable to attain the success of their first two albums (Of the Heart, of the Soul and of the Cross: The Utopian Experience and The Bliss Album...? (Vibrations of Love and the Anger and the Ponderance of Life and Existence)). The album's highest charting single was "Downtown Venus", which contained a sample of Deep Purple's "Hush," and reached #48 on the Billboard charts.

Other noteworthy samples from this album include: "4 O'Clock in the Morning" by the Hassles in "My Own Personal Gavity", "Pacific" by 808 State in "I'll be Waiting for You", "Don't Interrupt the Sorrow" by Joni Mitchell in "Forever Damaged (The 96th)", "Nite and Day" by Al B. Sure! in "Sometimes I Miss You So Much" and "Mama Told Me Not to Come" by Eric Burdon & The Animals in "Fantasia's Confidential Ghetto: 1999/Once in a Lifetime/Coconut". The track also contains a musical reference to The Beatles song - Flying.

Song writing credit is given to Attrell Cordes (Prince Be of P.M. Dawn) on each song along with whomever is being sampled, with the exceptions of "Silence...Recorded at the Gravesite of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.", which is, as the title suggests 21 seconds of silence, and received no song writing credit.
