Tha Triflin' Album is the third studio album by American rapper King Tee. It was released on January 26, 1993, via Capitol Records. The recording sessions took place at Echo Sound and Kitchen Sync Studios in Los Angeles in 1992. The album was produced by DJ Pooh, Broadway, DJ Aladdin, SLJ, DJ Bobcat, Marley Marl, Mr. Woody, Tha Alkaholiks, and King Tee.
It features guest appearances from Ice Cube, Deadly Threat, Nefretitti, Mad Kap, and Tha Alkaholiks. The album spawned two singles: "Got It Bad Y'all" and "Black Togetha Again". Both singles were later included on King Tee's greatest hits compilation Ruff Rhymes: Greatest Hits Collection. The album peaked at number 95 on the US Billboard 200 and number 17 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. The success of this album is quite significant as it allowed King Tee's protégés, Tha Alkaholiks, to gain a following. It also provided a foundation for King Tee's Likwit Crew.
