Misery Loves Comedy is a collaborative studio album by American rapper Louis Logic and hip hop record producer J.J. Brown. It was released on June 13, 2006 via Fat Beats. Recording sessions took place at 5G Studios in Brooklyn. Entirely produced by J.J. Brown, who also served as executive producer together with Jim Mahoney, it features a lone guest appearance from Marisa Croce. It was supported with the only single "The Great Divide" b/w "Captain Lou El Wino".

The album focusses on Logic's experiences with women, however, the title hints at the poor outcomes of these ventures.
