Naughty by Nature is the second album from Naughty by Nature, released on September 3, 1991, by Tommy Boy Records. The album was recorded through November 1990 to August 1991. It was a critical and commercial success, having been certified platinum on February 6, 1992, thanks in large part to the hit single, "O.P.P.," which reached #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1991. Additional singles released from the album were "Everything's Gonna Be All Right" and "Uptown Anthem," both of which were minor hits on the Billboard charts.

Reception

Stanton Swihart of AllMusic claims that "O.P.P." was the most "contagious crossover radio smash in the autumn of 1991." In addition, Swihart considers Naughty by Nature to be "both a pop and a rap classic," as well as a "must-have album for fans of East Coast rap."
