Black Pearl is the second studio album by American rapper Yo-Yo.

The album spawned two singles: "Black Pearl" and "Home Girl Don't Play Dat".

AllMusic's Ron Wynn wrote: "Yo-Yo's positive (but not simplistic or naive) messages regarding female sexuality, self-esteem and achievement were grounded in hard raps and thudding beats on this album, still her most complete, and effective production.

"[1] Robert Christgau commented that "the nervous propulsion and unreleased tension of her funk agitates mind-body-spirit, only to be put right by a voice that's gotten kinder without even thinking about going soft.

Advising the downpressed or dissing fools, her lyrics are smarter throughout and stunning on one that makes a battered wife's bizness its own.
