"Romeo Must Die: The Album" is a hip hop/R&B compilation album for the urban/kung-fu film "Romeo Must Die", released by Blackground Records in 2000. The soundtrack eventually sold over 2.1 million copies in the US and 5 million worldwide.

The album was notable for being R&B singer Aaliyah's return from her break at college, and includes four of her songs. Producers included Timbaland and Missy Elliott, Jermaine Dupri, and Kay Gee. The album featured performances by Chante Moore, Destiny's Child, Ginuwine, TImbaland & Magoo, and others, and was executive produced by Aaliyah, Timbaland, Barry Hankerson, and Jomo Hankerson.

Three singles were released from the album: Aaliyah's number-one pop hit "Try Again", the Aaliyah/DMX duet "Come Back in One Piece", and Timbaland and Magoo's "We At It Again", which introduced Timbaland's younger brother, rapper Sebastian, to audiences.
