Droppin' Science Fiction is the first studio album by The Mighty Underdogs, an American hip hop group consisting of producer Headnodic and rappers Lateef the Truthspeaker and Gift of Gab.

[5] Wilson McBee of Slant Magazine gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, commenting that "Gab and Lateef are effortless spitters with buckets of clever wordplay, and Headnotic proves himself to be a worthy beatsmith and perhaps the freshest possible understudy to Madlib and J-Dilla that has arrived in some time.

"[7] Meanwhile, Tim Perlich of Now wrote: "The fact that they bring in their celeb friends (MF Doom, Lyrics Born, Mr. Lif, Casual, DJ Shadow, etc) for cameos on just about every track takes them even further from establishing a coherent Mighty Underdogs sound.

"[10] Nate Patrin of Pitchfork gave the album a 4.0 out of 10, calling it "an unusually awkward record, one that pushes the non-threatening b-boy routine past good-natured lightheartedness into cloying silliness.

"[11] Ben Westhoff of SF Weekly commented that "the Mighty Underdogs fail at their attempts to be clever or funny.
