Sleeve VG; Vinyl VG+. Straight Out the Jungle is the debut album from hip-hop trio Jungle Brothers, released November 8, 1988 via Warlock Records. A foundational launchpad for the Native Tongues collective, the album blends playful funk, jazz-inflected samples, African rhythms, and early hip-house stylings. Key tracks like “Straight Out the Jungle,” “Because I Got It Like That,” “Jimbrowski,” and “Sounds of the Safari” mark their experimental edge and lyrical inventiveness.

This is a US first pressing which plays beautifully. A superb album and one of the most influential hip hop albums of the period.
