Nothin' But Trouble is the debut studio album by American singer and actress Nia Peeples. It was released on August 30, 1988, by Mercury Records. Peeples decided to venture into the music industry after she came to recognition as a regular cast in the musical television series Fame. She worked with Steve Harvey, Howard Hewett, Doc Powell and Tony Prendatt on the album. Musically, Nothin' But Trouble is a dance-pop and R&B album with influence of other popular genres at the time, such as freestyle and new jack swing.
Nothin' But Trouble did not receive positive reviews from music critics who compared Peeples' style to Paula Abdul and Janet Jackson. The album spawned one hit single with a track originally recorded by La Toya Jackson. It was not a commercial success as it didn't receive any certifications. It peaked at number ninety-seven on the Billboard 200.
Three singles were released from the album. The lead single "Trouble" peaked at number thirty-five on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart. The album's following singles "High Time" and "I Know How (to Make You Love Me)" were less successful but managed to peak into the Hot Dance Club Songs chart at number ten and twenty-eight respectively.
