The Idea of Beautiful is the debut studio album by American hip hop recording artist Rapsody, released on August 28, 2012, by independent record label Jamla. The album was released after the critical acclaim of her mixtapes Return of the B-Girl (2010), Thank H.E.R. Now (2011), For Everything (2011) and her EP The Black Mamba (2012). The production on the album was handled by the members of The Soul Council (9th Wonder, Khrysis, E. Jones, AMP, Eric G. and Ka$h).

The album features guest appearances from Big Rube, Raheem DeVaughn, Ab-Soul, Mac Miller, The Cool Kids, Buckshot, Childish Gambino, GQ, Big Remo, Heather Victoria, Rocki Evans, BJ the Chicago Kid, and Nomsa Mazwai. The first single was "Believe Me"; its music video was released on YouTube and two more videos were released- the songs "Kind of Love" and "The Drums". All of the music videos filmed were directed by It's a Wonderful World Music Group's in-house director Kenneth Price.
