Vol. II: 1990 – A New Decade is a 1990 album by Soul II Soul. The album reached No. 1 in the UK in May 1990, and contained three UK hits, "Get a Life", which reached No. 3 (and which peaked at No. 54 on America's Billboard Hot 100), "A Dream's A Dream", which made No. 6 (and peaked at No. 85 on the Hot 100), and "Missing You", which reached No. 22 (and did not chart on the Hot 100).
The album was recorded following the departure of Caron Wheeler (the Soul II Soul collective's best known singer) who did not perform on the record. Guest performers included singers Kym Mazelle, Lamya, Marcia Lewis and Victoria Wilson James, saxophonist Courtney Pine and legendary New York hip-hop scenester Fab 5 Freddy.
