Midnight Lounge is the eighth studio album by American singer Jody Watley. Originally released only in Japan on her Avitone label (in conjunction with Universal Music Group), critical acclaim prompted Watley to release the album Stateside by way of a distribution deal with Avitone and Shanachie. The U.S. release also included productions from King Britt and Eastwest Connection.
