Greatest Hits es el primer álbum de grandes éxitos de la banda estadounidense The Jackson 5 lanzado por el sello Motown Records a finales de 1971. Además, vendió más de 5.6 millones de copias en el mundo.[2] El sencillo «Sugar Daddy» figuró como un nuevo tema con los éxitos del grupo como «I Want You Back» y «I'll Be There». Stephen Thomas Erlewine del sitio Allmusic le dio 4 estrellas y media de 5 y dijo que la grabación era «buena» y agregó que «permanece una excelente recapitulación de algunos de los primeros años de la banda».[1]
