All of the Above is the second studio album by American hip hop artist J-Live. It was released on Coup d'État in 2002. The album cover pays homage to John Coltrane's Blue Train.
Brad Haywood of Pitchfork Media gave All of the Above an 8.5 out of 10, noting that "[J-Live's] delivery is similar to Posdnuos, and his lyrical content is along the same lines: intelligent, educated, confident, and socially conscious." Josh Wells of HipHopDX said: "There are virtually no weak tracks on 78 minutes of music."
Jason Birchmeier of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5 and called it "an album for a select audience that prefers intellect and understated beats over bombast, boasting, booty, and bluntedness."
