As a singer and rapper, Federline performed his first official single Lose Control at the 2006 Teen Choice Awards . Federline's performance received mixed reviews, with the Associated Press calling him "enthusiastic", Federline "apparently rapping". Most hip-hop fans don't take Federline seriously, as Elliot Wilson, chairman of XXL Magazine , called him “a joke”. Federline's previous single, PopoZão , was released on January 1, 2006, but due to the failure it was not included on his debut album Playing with Fire , which was released in October 2006 on Halloween in the US. The pop star co-wrote all thirteen songs on the album. Despite months of advertising rose Playing with Fire in the US Billboard 200 with 6,400 copies sold in its first week on November 18, ranked only 151 in the Billboard 200 a. Second place was achieved in the special Heatseekers charts. However, the album fell from both charts after a week.

From the end of October 2006, Federline completed some appearances for World Wrestling Entertainment , in return, advertising for his album was switched during the WWE broadcasts. Through interview segments, he started a feud against reigning WWE Champion John Cena . On November 5, Federline appeared on Pay Per View Cyber ​​Sunday and interfered in a triple threat match , preventing Cena from winning the World Heavyweight Championship . On the next edition of WWE RAW , Federline challenged Cena to a match on the RAW edition on January 1, 2007. The challenge was accepted by Cena shortly afterwards.

On November 7, 2006, a week after his album was released, Spears filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences. The couple's premarital marriage contract awarded Kevin Federline $ 360,000 for half of the years the marriage lasted. The deal would give Federline $ 360,000 since he and Spears were married for two years. The divorce has now taken place. Due to some escapades in Spears' life, Federline was initially granted sole custody of her children; since 2011 the two have shared custody each half.
