Humboldt Beginnings is the fourth studio album by the Pharcyde, released in 2004.

[5][6] The group was down to two original members for the recording of Humboldt Beginnings: Bootie Brown and Imani.

[2] AllMusic wrote that "the frequent weed songs are interspersed with club thumpers ('The Uh-Huh'), smooth '80s-influenced lovers tracks ('Knew U,' 'Right B4'), and one of the most hilariously overblown gangsta tracks (perhaps humorous?)

"[2] The Cleveland Scene wrote that "the ganjacentric album ... at least acknowledges the stoned-soul picnic that inspired the band's greatest moments.

"[7] Phoenix New Times wrote that "tight, innovative production and clean, crisp flows contribute to a distinctly original nuance that helps separate the disc further from the group's previous efforts.
