While the City Sleeps, We Rule the Streets is the debut album from Cobra Starship. It was released on October 10, 2006 in the U.S., and on October 17, 2006 in Canada. A rough clip of "Send My Love to the Dancefloor, I'll See You In Hell (Hey Mister DJ)", a finished version of "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)", and "The Church of Hot Addiction" can be streamed from the PureVolume site of Cobra Starship. "The Church of Hot Addiction" was also used as the theme song for the WWE's Great American Bash 2007. Gabe Saporta says that the most of the songs from this recording in particular are about his personal life & career: "Being from Jersey Means Never Having to Say You're Sorry" is about feeling empty and hopeless, directly regarding to the place where he was (partly) brought-up while "The Ballad of Big Poppa and Diamond Girl" is about a quite young girl he randomly met in a disco in Los Angeles.
