Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus is the second soundtrack album from the Disney Channel original series Hannah Montana. The album was released on June 26, 2007 by Walt Disney Records and Hollywood Records. In the television series and film, American recording artist and actress Miley Cyrus portrays Miley Stewart, a girl with a secret double life as pop star Hannah Montana. The two-disc "hybrid" album is the follow-up to the series' first soundtrack Hannah Montana (2006), and also acts as the debut release of Cyrus. Cyrus performs all of the soundtrack's 20 tracks, while being credited to Hannah Montana for half of them. The album sold 5,000,000 copies.^[1]

The album is separated with two discs. The first disc, entitled Hannah Montana 2 features ten recordings by the character of Hannah Montana, while the second disc, entitled Meet Miley Cyrus, features ten tracks by Cyrus. Though the Meet Miley Cyrus album was intended to be Cryus' debut album, it failed to gain any recognition as the songs in the album seemed to have a similar sound to that of Hannah Montana.^[2]

During its first week of sales, it debuted in the U.S. at number one on the Billboard 200 with 326,000 album copies sold.^[3] The album, having sold 3,900,000 copies in the U.S, has been RIAA-certified 3× multi platinum.
