Mic-a-holic Ai (stylized as MIC-A-HOLIC A.I.) is the fourth studio album by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Ai. It was released in Japan on July 6, 2005, and elsewhere in Asia on July 19 and July 26, 2005, through Island Records and Universal Sigma. She recorded a majority of the album in Tokyo in 2005 and worked with various Japanese and American producers.

An R&B and hip hop record, Mic-a-holic Ai features elements of Latin and gospel music. Released two months after her breakthrough single "Story", Mic-a-holic Ai became Ai's most commercially successful album of her career. The album debuted at number four on the Oricon Albums Chart, selling 85,000 physical units in its first week with music critics lauding the album's versatility.
