American Caesar is the eleventh studio album by American rock singer Iggy Pop, released in September 1993 by record label Virgin.

After the success of Brick by Brick, Pop opted to continue with that album's lyrical themes while toughening up the musical foundation. The album is often considered one of his stronger 1990s albums.

Videos were made for "Wild America" and "Beside You", and the album has a cover of the 1960s standard "Louie Louie" (made famous by The Kingsmen) for which Pop wrote his own set of politically fueled lyrics.

The first single from the album, "Wild America", reached number 25 on Modern Rock Tracks. The album was not as commercially successful as its predecessor.

All tracks composed by Iggy Pop, except where noted.
