Down to Earth is the sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder, released on November 16, 1966 on the Tamla (Motown) label. The album was a departure from Wonder's earlier, teen pop-driven albums, and, along with its predecessor, Up-Tight, it re-established the sixteen-year-old Wonder, whose voice had recently changed, as a Motown hitmaker.

Original Undisputed Truth members Billie Rae Calvin and Brenda Joyce Evans left shortly before the recording of this album, and the group's producer, Norman Whitfield, took the opportunity to expand the group. Founding member and male lead singer Joe Harris was joined by Virginia "V" McDonald, Tyrone "Big Ty" Douglas, Tyrone "Lil Ty" Barkeley and Calvin "Dhaak" Stephenson, all of whom had been part of The Magictones, a local Detroit soul group. The first six tracks on the album were recorded by this new line-up. Down To Earth's lead single, "Help Yourself" was released in early 1974, and the group then appeared on Soul Train to promote it. The single became The Undisputed Truth's biggest hit since 1971's "Smiling Faces Sometimes" (US US R&B making on the Pop Charts and on the R&B Charts (their second and last Top 20 R&B hit).

Lead singer Joe Harris was the only constant in the Undisputed Truth lineup. This LP bears no resemblance to the group's first two sets on Gordy. The sounds run the spectrum from rock ("Brother Louie") to pop ("Our Day Will Come") to a jazzy version of the Temptations' "The Girl's Alright With M. A couple of singles.
