You Gotta Believe is the second and final album by American hip hop group,
Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch (Mark would go on to make two albums with reggae artist
Prince Ital Joe without the Funky Bunch before later going on to become an actor). Coming off the moderate success of
Music for the People, which reached #21 on the
Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum, the group rushed to the studio to record a follow-up. However,
You Gotta Believe was not as successful as the previous album, only making it as high as #67 on the
Billboard 200. The album included the semi-successful single "You Gotta Believe". The track "Loungin'" was a collaboration between Mark and older brother
Donnie Wahlberg of
New Kids on the Block.
