"Keep It Natural" is the debut album by American pop boyband Natural, released on September 23, 2002 on Sony BMG and Transcontinental Records in Germany. It had earlier been released in Japan and possibly other Asian countries as well.

The album was the first for the band and followed Lou Pearlman's boyband formula of bubblegum pop. Three of the twelve songs were cover versions; "Paradise" was written by the actual band members.

Altogether "Keep It Natural" spawned four top forty singles and one airplay-only single. The album was released in Germany, Austria, Switzerland as well as Malaysia, Philippines, and Japan.

Censorship

For unknown reasons certain lyrics were changed from the album. "Put Your Arms Around Me" has the original chorus line of "Come lay down beside me" though for "certain" video versions it was changed to "Always be beside me" for an unknown reason (other lyrics such as 'I'll be here when the dawn meets the day' seem more risque then that particular line). The original version is on the album.

On "I Count the Minutes" the original lyric performed during the FOX Family concert was as sung by J: "My lips are hungry for the taste of you; I cant wait, cuz I live for the love that we make". When the album was released the lyric was changed to "My heart is aching cuz Im missing you; I cant wait, cuz I live for your love every day". No reason was given but it would be assumed it was less risque that way. Its unknown if the single version was changed or not.
