Montezuma's Revenge is the fifth studio album by the Oakland hip hop group Souls of Mischief. It was released on December 1, 2009, by Clear Label Records. After a nine-year period dedicated to touring and working on other projects, both solo and as part of Hieroglyphics, Montezuma's Revenge marked Souls of Mischief's return as a group. Souls of Mischief worked for six weeks with the producer Prince Paul at a remote house, where they could focus on recording the album.

Montezuma's Revenge peaked at number 93 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The album received positive reviews from music critics upon its release. Most of them commended Prince Paul's production, but some had mixed feelings about the group's unchanged style, believing that the group should have experimented more with it.
