Sex Down is the debut studio album by R&B singer Link, released on June 23, 1998 through Relativity Records.

Link co-wrote with Darrell Delite Allamby, and Antionette Roberson the number one billboard hit "My Body" for R&B supergroup LSG, Link soon after signed a recording contract to Darrell Delite Allamby's production company, Millineum 2000 distributed by Relativity Records. Link began to work on his debut album, with Darrell Delite Allamby who served as the album's Executive Producer and main Co-writer alongside Antionette Roberson. While the album's lead single "Whatcha Gone Do? became a top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 23, the album itself failed to make a significant impact on the charts, only making it to 187 on the Billboard 200 and 46 on the R&B charts. Link did not release another studio album until 2008's independent effort Creepin.^[1]
