Love's Alright is the third musical studio album by comedian and singer Eddie Murphy. The album was released on February 23, 1993, by Motown Records, and was produced by Murphy, David Allen Jones and Ralph Hawkins. It was a critical and commercial failure, only making it to number 80 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Two singles were released: "Whatzupwitu", whose music video is patterned after the album cover and features Michael Jackson, and "I Was a King", featuring Shabba Ranks. The album did not chart well on the Billboard charts.
