Around this time, Rivers recorded what would become the only released Homie song, "[[American Girls]]".  The song was recorded in Boston at a professional studio, but no one seems to remember where.  Karl wrote, "The older version of the song was a very up-tempo rocking song. When the "deedles" version was released (on [[March 24]], [[1998]]), many were surprised to find that it was now a much slower song, smoothed out on the R-n-B / country tip with a pop feel appeal to it."
