Notes
The debut album from the Jungle Brothers, released November 8, 1988. The album was largely recorded without the use of a sampler (with the exception of the tracks "On The Run", "What's Going On", "Because I Got It Like That", and "I'm Gonna Do You"). Instead, they would lay down a beat straight off the records they were using as source material, in the words of Afrika Baby Bam: "looping it around by hand, eight bars at a time, until you had six minutes on tape, so there'd be enough music to do your rhymes before it ran out...I just had one copy of each record. That's the way most of the album was done." In addition to being the first Jungle Brothers album, this was noteworthy for being Q-Tip's first appearance on LP, on the track "Black Is Black". He had previously only rapped (in his debut appearance) on the Jungle Brothers b-side track "The Promo". Both "The Promo" and the Jungle Brothers' smash hip-house hit "I'll House You" were added to subsequent pressings of the album.

- My copy is identical in labels and logos to this version, but DOES include the track names for I'll House You and The Promo. Anyone else have that?
- Bought this RSD reissue at my local record store. Cool translucent "smoke" vinyl color. Tracks have the same "lo-fi" home recording feel this album is known for, but surprised they left off "I'll House You" or "The Promo," arguably two of the best songs from the cassette back in the day. Probably could have easily fit on either side of the record, or as a bonus 12".
- I think that you can found this album in unofficial! I buy a copy and the red it’s more rose.
Somebody has a copy like this? - This is the one I have, that I bought back in the early '90s. I'll see if my CD has a date printed on the liner notes somewhere.
- This came out before 3 Feet High And Rising.
Both De La and Tribe followed after. Tip features on Black Is Black.
This is significant cos a lot of people think 3 Feet came first with that Daisy Age kinda style. referencing Straight Out The Jungle (CD, Album) WARCD 2704
This 1988 US cd release should have 13 tracks. Not 12. It is missing track 6 - "I'll House You".- breathtaking release, great sound. had my doubts due to the colored vinyl, but its really deep, loud and clear sounding
