"Men Be Illin'" is a song by American singer La Toya Jackson, originally intended to be released on her fifth studio album, La Toya.

The song was recorded in early 1987 and copyrighted with the U.S. Copyright Office on July 7 of that year. Jackson co-wrote the song with John F. Wilson, who she had previously worked with on the track "Love Talk" from her Imagination in 1986. According to U.S. Copyright records, the song was simply recored on a cassette tape and claimed by Jackson, while another Jackson/Wilson track entitled "I Really Want To Do It Tonight" was claimed by Wilson. [1] Neither of the tracks were ever released on an album, although because of the dates of the recordings, it is widely believed that "Men Be Illin'" was intended to be released on Jackson's 1988 La Toya album.
