Itstrumental is the fourth album by hip hop producer Prince Paul. Similar to other Prince Paul albums, it follows a theme. The album is strung together by a series of skits about the Mental Victims Unit (a play on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) tracking down and arresting Prince Paul. The album contains songs about, dealing with, or poking fun at Prince Paul's apparently real depression. The album was seen as Prince Paul's return to his classic style after Politics of the Business.
