Fever for da Flavor is the debut studio album by the American R&B group H-Town. It was released on April 15, 1993 via Luke Records. Production was handled by Bishop "Stick" Burrell and Jon "Swift" Catalon, with Uncle Luke serving as executive producer. The album peaked at number 16 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Top R&B Albums chart in the United States. It achieved Gold status by the Recording Industry Association of America on June 14, 1993, and went Platinum on August 18, 1993.

The group gained popularity in the US when the album's lead single "Knockin' Da Boots" made it to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the Hot R&B Songs chart. The second single "Lick U Up" was a minor hit, reaching number 67 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 21 on the Hot R&B Songs.
