"Aaron Carter" is the self-titled debut album of Aaron Carter, brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. It was originally released in December 1997 in Europe and re-released the next year with a new song and a remix, as well as being released in the United States. The original version of the album was also available as a limited edition including a poster and a pen that had written on the side, "I Love Aaron", available in red, yellow, green or blue.

The album reached the top 10 in some European countries, and reached #12 in the United Kingdom. It did not, however, reach the U.S. "Billboard" 200.

Three singles were released from the album; "Crush on You", a cover of The Jets' 1985 song, "Crazy Little Party Girl", and "I'm Gonna Miss You Forever". Other songs were released as limited edition singles in some regions. "Crush on You" went top 10 in Australia and the UK, and all three singles went top 20 in the UK (except "I'm Gonna Miss You Forever", which peaked at #24 on the UK Singles Chart), Germany and Sweden.

"Surfin' USA", a cover of the 1963 song by The Beach Boys, was later included on the re-release edition of the album, and released separately as an EP, and went top 20 in the UK and Germany.
