Intimacy: Album III is the third studio album from R&B artist Kem. It was released on August 17, 2010 on Motown Records. This is his first album in 5 years releasing 2 albums on Motown and his only release on Universal Motown records following the dissolution of the label. The first single, "Why Would You Stay", has received a great amount of airplay, peaking at number 17 and 14 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs and Heatseekers charts respectively. Like other albums, it's self-produced by Kem himself and features a duet with Maurissa Rose and spoken word by Jill Scott. The album debuted at number 95 on the Hot R&B/Hip-hop albums chart and rose to number 2 the following week. A remix of "If It's Love" was also released, this time featuring R&B artist Chrisette Michele.

The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 74,000 copies in its first week in the United States, becoming Kem's highest-charting set ever.[1] In March 2012, the album was certified Gold by the RIAA.[2]
