El Niño is the only studio album by American hip hop group Def Squad, composed of rappers Redman, Erick Sermon and Keith Murray.
It features guest appearances from Biz Markie, Mally G, Too $hort and the Drama Squad.
It was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America on July 29, 1998.
The song "Ride Wit Us" later appeared on Keith Murray's third album It's a Beautiful Thing.
The Village Voice praised Sermon's production, but noted that it's not enough "to mask the taste of violent skits, scandalous bitches, unrepentant baby fathers, automatic weapons, and other unhealthy canned stuff.
