The Cinderella Theory is the fifth
studio album by American
funk musician
George Clinton, released August 2, 1989, on
Paisley Park Records. It was released three years after his previous studio effort, R&B Skeletons in the Closet, which was his last album for
Capitol Records. The Cinderella Theory represented a comeback of sorts for Clinton, who had been largely absent from the pop music scene since his last album for Capitol. The album was produced by Clinton for Baby Clinton Inc.
