Forget the World is the debut studio album by Dutch music producer and DJ Afrojack. It was released on 16 May 2014. Afrojack said of the album title, "It's basically a message not just to my fans, but also to myself, to always remember to keep following your heart, keep following your path, and never try to let the things around you get you down."

"As Your Friend" featuring Chris Brown was released on 13 February 2013. It reached number 21 on the UK Singles Chart. The song appears on the album as a bonus track on the deluxe version.

"The Spark" featuring Spree Wilson was released as the album's lead single on 11 October 2013. The song entered the UK Singles Chart at number 17.

"Ten Feet Tall" featuring Wrabel was released on 3 February 2014, as the album's second single. It was released in the UK on 18 May 2014, alongside the David Guetta remix 2 days after the album's release.

"Dynamite" featuring Snoop Dogg was released on 17 April 2014, as the album's third single.

At Rolling Stone, Christopher R. Weingarten rated the album three stars out of five, stating that "anything that's not glowing with Afrojack's trademark explosions and monster melodies... is a blown opportunity." David Jeffries of AllMusic rated the album three stars out of five, writing that "Forget the World plays more like a collection of 12"s than a well-tempered album." At USA Today, Elysa Gardner rated the album three stars out of five, saying that "these new tracks represent EDM at its most breezily accessible". Paul McInnes of The Guardian rated the album one star out of five, stating that the release has only "one truly poignant moment."
