State Property is the soundtrack to the 2002 film, State Property, as well as the debut studio album by the rap group, State Property. Selling 51,500 copies in its first week,[6] the album was a success, making it to 14 on the Billboard 200, 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and 2 on the Top Soundtracks, and spawned one single "Roc the Mic", which was a minor hit, making it to 55 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The album features a sole guest appearance by R&B singer Rell, who played 'Butter' in the movie.
