U Got 2 Know is the second and most successful studio album by Italian Eurodance act Cappella.[4][5] It was initially released via the Mercury Records label on March 7, 1994, and later re-released via other labels with slightly different track listings. The album saw great success in many European countries, peaking at number one in the Swiss and Finnish charts. Eight singles were released from the album.
