Rhythm Is My Business is a 1962 studio album by the American jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald. The album was recorded with a big band and arranged and conducted by the American R&B organist Bill Doggett.

DownBeat magazine gave this album 3½ stars, commenting that the emphasis here was on "swinging".

Billboard reviewed the album in September 1962 and said that it "rates a lot of play".[5]
