Perfect Timing is the only studio album by American hip hop duo Boo & Gotti. It was released on August 26, 2003, through Cash Money Records and Universal Records. Recording sessions took place at Patchwerk Recording Studios in Atlanta, at Circle House Studios in Miami, at Quad Recording Studios in New York City, at Rockland Studios in Chicago, and at Cash Money Studios in New Orleans. Production was handled by Mannie Fresh, Kanye West, Jazze Pha, Leslie Brathwaite and R. Kelly. It features guest appearances from Big Tymers, Cadillac Tah, Gillie Da Kid, Jazze Pha, Lac, Lil' Wayne, Mikkey, R. Kelly, Stone, Tateeze and TQ.

Despite being released by one of hip hop's most popular labels, Perfect Timing was poorly promoted and failed commercially, only reaching 195 on the Billboard 200, dropping off the chart after only one week. The album's lead single was a collaboration with Lil' Wayne entitled "Ain't It Man", however the single failed to reach the Billboard charts.^[3] According to Gotti, the album sold around 80,000 copies as of 2015.
