	'''''Rei Momo''''' is the debut solo album by [[David Byrne]] and second overall studio album (after the 1981 collaborative album ''[[My Life in the Bush of Ghosts]]''), released on 3 October 1989.

The album is mostly sung in English and features guest appearances by [[Kirsty MacColl]], [[Willie Colón]] and [[Celia Cruz]], among others.
