Big Boi Presents... Got Purp? Vol. II is the only studio album by American hip hop collective Purple Ribbon All-Stars. It was released on November 22, 2005 via Purple Ribbon/Virgin Records. Production was handled by B-Don, Carl Mo, Charles "K.C." Sanders, C.K.P., DJ Cutmaster Swiff, Janelle Monáe, Mr. DJ, Nate "Rocket" Wonder, Organized Noize, The Beat Bullies and The Booom Boize. It features contributions from Dungeon Family members Big Boi, Killer Mike, Konkrete, Scar, Sleepy Brown, Janelle Monáe, Goodie Mob, Bubba Sparxxx, Big Gee, Cool Breeze, Donkey Boy, Fonzworth Bentley, G-Rock, Lil' Co and Rock D., as well as guest appearances from Bun B and Poo Bear.

The album debuted at number 49 on the Billboard 200 and number 5 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums in the United States. Its only single, "Kryptonite (I'm on It)", reached number 35 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 8 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and went certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.

The album serves as a sequel to 2005 mixtape Got That Purp. The song "Hold On" marks the first Goodie Mob reunion featuring all four original members since the quartet's 1999 World Party album and Dungeon Family's 2001 Even in Darkness.
