Carasmatic is Irene Cara's third and final studio album released in 1987. It was her only album for Elektra Records. The album was mostly produced by George Duke. Many popular musicians also contributed to this album such as Luther Vandross, Lynn Davis, James Ingram, Patrice Rushen, Bonnie Raitt, Carole King, John Farrar and Michael Bolton. The album, however, sold poorly and failed to make an impression on the charts.

The lead single "Girlfriends" failed to generate enough sales or airplay to crack the Hot 100.
