All I Want Is You is the debut studio album by American R&B recording artist Miguel. After signing a record deal with the Jive Records label ByStorm Entertainment in 2007, Miguel recorded the album with producers Dre & Vidal, Fisticuffs, Happy Perez, State of Emergency, and Salaam Remi. It was shelved by Jive for two years after legal issues with Miguel's former production company.

All I Want Is You was eventually released on November 30, 2010, selling poorly at first. With the help of its subsequent singles, the album became sleeper hit on the Billboard 200 and sold 404,000 copies by September 2012. It also received positive reviews; critics found some of the music inconsistent but praised Miguel's singing/songwriting abilities while drawing comparisons to American recording artist Prince. Miguel toured in promotion of the album as a supporting act for the singers Usher and Trey Songz.

In 2007, Miguel was signed Jive Records-imprint label ByStorm Entertainment. He subsequently recorded All I Want Is You, but legal issues with his former production company prevented the album from being released for two years. Miguel continued working with various underground acts and writing songs for mainstream recording artists, including Johnson&Jonson, Asher Roth, Jaheim, and Usher. Recording sessions for the album took place at Black Mango Studios in Van Nuys, California, Germano Studios in New York City, Glenwood Studios and Instrument Zoo in Miami, Florida, Studio 609 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and The Gym in Los Angeles, California.
