Nutty Professor II: The Klumps - Soundtrack is the soundtrack album to Peter Segal's 2000 comedy film Nutty Professor II: The Klumps. It was released on July 11, 2000, through Def Jam Recordings, as a sequel to 1996 The Nutty Professor Soundtrack, and mainly composed of R&B and hip hop music.

Recording sessions took place at Manhattan Center, Mirror Image Recorders, Sound on Sound Studios, Soundtrack Studios, Quad Recording Studios, The Hit Factory, Sony Music Studios and Rockin' Reel Recording Studios in New York City, at A Touch Of Jazz Studios in Philadelphia, at The Edge, at The Hit Factory Criteria, at Backroom Studios in Glendale, at Sound Stage Studios in Nashville, at Darkchild Studios in Pleasantville, at Record Plant in Los Angeles, at 54 Sound in Ferndale, and at Rockland Studios in Chicago.

Production was handled by Tim & Bob, Erick Sermon, Brian McKnight, Carvin & Ivan, Christopher "Deep" Henderson, Janet Jackson, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, JoJo Brim, Montell Jordan, P. Killer Trackz, P. King "The Specialist", Redhead Kingpin, R. Kelly, Rodney Jerkins, Sisqó, Teflon and Timbaland, with Brian Grazer, Gary Jones, Happy Walters, Harry Garfield, Kevin Liles and Lyor Cohen serving as executive producers.

It features contributions from Amil, Brian McKnight, Case, DMX, Dyme, Eminem, Eve, Foxy Brown, Janet Jackson, Jay-Z, Jazz, Kandice Love, Memphis Bleek, Method Man, Montell Jordan, Musiq Soulchild, Redman, R. Kelly, Shorty 101 and Sisqó.

In the United States, the album debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. It was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America on August 24, 2000.

The album was supported with six singles. Its lead single, "Doesn't Really Matter" topped the Billboard Hot 100 and later appeared in Janet Jackson's seventh studio album All for You (2001). The second single of the soundtrack, "Hey Papi", made it to number 76 on the US Hot 100. "Just Friends (Sunny)" peaked at number 31 on the US Hot 100 and later was featured in Musiq's debut studio album Aijuswanaseing (2000). The song "Not Even Gonna Trip" by British R&B group Honeyz was recorded for the UK version of the album and released as a single, which peaked at number 24 on the UK Singles Chart, but was not included in the film. The song "Even If", which also wasn't featured in the film, was not a success, reaching only number 118 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The album's final single, "Missing You", peaked at number 4 on US Hot 100 and received a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance nomination, but was replaced in UK/European editions of the compilation with Jayo Felony's "Hotta Than Fish Grease". Nevertheless, neither "Missing You" nor "Hotta Than Fish Grease" were featured in the film.
