Martika's Kitchen is the second (and final) studio album by pop singer and former child actor Martika, released in 1991 on Columbia Records. The album was reissued in deluxe 2CD edition in 2018 as Martika's Kitchen (Reheated Edition) with 12 bonus tracks of rare mixes and single edits. Album background The album was a departure in musical styles from Martika's debut album. Martika's Kitchen incorporates elements of gospel, jazz, funk, R&B and traditional Cuban music. The album features four songs written and produced by Prince. The four Prince songs (tracks 1-3 and 10) on the album were recorded by him and then sent to Martika to overdub. Three of those songs were based on a lyrics notebook she had given him for inspiration. Album reception The Prince-penned title track cracked the US Billboard Hot 100 and the gospel-themed "Love... Thy Will Be Done", co-written by Prince and Martika, made the top 10. The album was certified gold in both the UK and Australia. "Love... Thy Will Be Done" reached #1 in Australia, and the top 10 in the UK, Ireland, and New Zealand. The "Martika's Kitchen" single reached the top 40 in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Australia, and New Zealand. A third single, "Coloured Kisses", narrowly missed the top 40 in the UK, and peaked at #39 in Australia. A fourth single, "Safe In the Arms of Love", was released in Europe in 1992 but failed to chart. "Temptation" was set to become the final single[citation needed] but was never officially released. A concert tour to promote the album visited over 200 cities.
