Soy El Mismo (transl. "I'm the Same") is the third studio album by American singer Prince Royce. The album was released on October 8, 2013, by Sony Music Latin and became Royce's third number 1 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in the United States. With Soy el Mismo, Royce also reached a career-best peak of number 14 on the US Billboard 200.[3]

At the Latin Grammy Awards of 2014, the album received a nomination for Best Contemporary Tropical Album, Royce's second career nomination in the category.[4] Royce was then nominated for three awards at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards: Top Latin Artist, Top Latin Album, and Top Latin Song for "Darte un Beso".[5] The latter won the award for Streaming Song of the Year at the 2014 Latin Billboard Music Awards.
