'''''Haute Living''''' is the upcoming second studio album by American rapper and record producer [[Swizz Beatz]], set to be released through [[Full Surface Records]], [[Ruff Ryders Entertainment]] and [[Atlantic Records]], in a joint venture with Everest Entertainment. |

==Background== |
|||
The album was first reported in late 2007, shortly after Swizz Beatz's debut album, ''[[One Man Band Man]]'' (2007) was released. Although it debuted at number 7 on the US [[Billboard 200]], despite a positive response to its upbeat production the album received mixed criticism towards its self-indulgent themes and the lack of guest appearances.<ref name="Jeffries">Jeffries, David. [{{Allmusic|class=album|id=r1078041/review|pure_url=yes}} Review: ''One Man Band Man'']. [[Allmusic]]. Retrieved on 2011-05-29.</ref> In an interview with Format Magazine, Swizz Beatz stated that he was already working hard on his second studio album, at the time under the title ''Life After the Party''.<ref>{{cite web|last=Parnham|first=Jason|url=http://www.formatmag.com/features/bun-b-and-swizz-beats/ |title=Bun B and Swizz Beatz « Format Magazine Urban Art Fashion |publisher=Formatmag.com |date=2007-12-02 |accessdate=2011-05-29}}</ref> However, in 2010 the album was renamed on three occasions: initially, the album was renamed ''King Issues'',<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web|last=Harper |first=Rosario |url=http://www.sohh.com/2010/08/swizz_beatz_contemplates_solo_album_titl.html |title=Swizz Beatz Turns To Fans For Album Title, "I'm Done Trying To Name It" |publisher=Sohh.Com |date=2010-08-09 |accessdate=2011-05-29}}</ref> but later on the same day it was renamed to ''The Perception of Greatness''.<ref name="autogenerated1"/> After initially turning to fans to help decide on an album title, Swizz Beatz eventually announced, whilst in a New York City recording session with [[Mary J. Blige]], the title would be current incarnation ''Haute Living'', as he felt "it's the perfect phrase to state what he's all about".<ref>{{cite web|last=Horowitz|first=Steven J.|url=http://www.theboombox.com/2010/08/24/swizz-beatz-renames-third-album-haute-living |title=Swizz Beatz Renames Third Album 'Haute Living' |publisher=The Boombox |date=2010-08-18 |accessdate=2011-05-29}}</ref> |
