Legal Hustle is a compilation album by Queensbridge rapper Cormega. It was released to a mixed critical reception and was not much of a commercial success. It reached #8 on the Top Independent Albums chart, but none of the album's singles charted. Most of the misplaced criticism was that the album featured too many guest artists, which in turn is stemmed from the confusion regarding the album being mistakenly labeled as solo effort when Cormega intended for it to be released as a compilation.
