Hell With the Lid Off, released in 1990 (see 1990 in music), is the first album by MC 900 Ft. Jesus collaborating with DJ Zero (see MC 900 Ft. Jesus § Career).

It has a heaven-and-hell theme to it, and track titles repeatedly mention such topics as God, heaven, and angels.

The songs themselves are often about mental illness, UFOs, voodoo, and violence; the comic delivery and tongue-in-cheek lyrics put this far outside the norm for a typical Nettwerk release.

The album is sample-laden and has a hip hop feel to it, though it shares little with that genre either.
