"The Massacre" was officially released on March 3, 2005, through Interscope Records, G-Unit Records, and Columbia Records. The album was a commercial success, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and selling over 4 million copies in the United States.

At the time, The Game was leaving G-Unit, and Ja Rule’s career was effectively flatlined. This album was the nail in the coffin for the "Shiny Suit Era" of hip-hop. If you download the "full album," listen specifically to the end of Piggy Bank —the laughter is the sound of a killer smiling at his work.

When most people use the keyword truncated to "Massacre album," they are looking for this album. However, the addition of prepositions like "the" or lack thereof often confuses search engines.
