A Girl Can Mack is the second studio album by American girl group 3LW. A follow-up to their self-titled debut album (2000), it was released by Epic Records on October 22, 2002. With A Girl Can Mack, the group attempted to shed their youthful image and craft a mature look. The album combines both ballads and upbeat songs, with several serving as a declaration of equality in romantic relationships.
Three singles were released in support of the album. The first, "I Do (Wanna Get Close To You)", features Loon and was a moderate chart hit, peaking at number 58 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at 13 in New Zealand. It was followed by the singles "Neva Get Enuf", featuring Lil Wayne, and "I Need That (I Want That)", featuring Lil' Kim, neither of which charted. The album itself debuted at number 15 on the Billboard 200 with 53,000 copies sold in its first week.
The album's release was hindered by the departure of member Naturi Naughton, who controversially left the group in August 2002 during promotions for "I Do (Wanna Get Close To You)". Remaining members Kiely Williams and Adrienne Bailon continued as a duo for the album's launch and release of its second single "Neva Get Enuf", before introducing Jessica Benson as the group's new third member in March 2003. With Benson, the group continued promoting the record and its third single "I Need That (I Want That)". A Girl Can Mack has sold over 176,000 copies in the United States alone.
