Honesty is the debut studio album by American country music artist Rodney Atkins. It was released in October 2003 via Curb Records. It was the second album that the singer recorded but the first that he actually released, as a self-titled album from 1997 was never issued.

Honesty produced four chart singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts with "Sing Along" (No. 36), "My Old Man" (No. 37), "Honesty (Write Me a List)" (No. 4), and "Someone to Share It With" (No. 41). The album's fifth single, "Monkey in the Middle", failed to chart. This song and two others on the album were co-written by Brian Gowan, who recorded on Curb in 1997 in the duo Blake & Brian.
