Promotion
In August 2002, Cartoon Network promoted the soundtrack by releasing three music videos from the original soundtrack. The first, "Back to the Lab" by Prince Paul, debuted on August 16 on Cartoon Network's Cartoon Cartoon Fridays block, which was entirely devoted to Dexter's Laboratory that night. Two more followed: "Dexter (What's His Name?)" by Coolio and "Secrets" by will.i.am. To further promote the soundtrack, an advertisement for it was shown before The Powerpuff Girls Movie, in theaters and on its DVD and VHS releases. Ads for the EP also appeared in commercials for Cartoon Network and in hip-hop magazines such as The Source and Urb. Promotions included Dexter's Laboratory trading cards, books, and Game Boy products.
