TY.O is the third studio album by British record producer and singer Taio Cruz which features special guest appearances from Flo Rida, Pitbull, David Guetta and Ludacris. Taking a more electronic music sound than his previous releases, TY.O was released in December 2011 by Universal Island Records but for reasons unknown to Cruz, its British and American release were held off. Instead, a year after its original release, an extended play (EP) version of the album titled The Fast Hits was released in the UK on 16 December 2012.

TY.O features a range of top-twenty and top-thirty singles including "Hangover" (featuring Flo Rida), "Troublemaker", "There She Goes" (usually featuring Pitbull), the limited release "World in Our Hands" and "Fast Car", which features on the German special edition and Fast Hits EP versions of the album. It received mixed-to-positive reviews, but the album itself reached the top twenty in Switzerland and top thirty in Germany, considerably less successful than Cruz's previous albums.
