"Original Nuttah" is a 1994 jungle song that was produced by Shy FX with lyrics and vocals by UK Apache.

"[2] UK Apache said the song's lyrics are based on films he watched while growing up, such as The Terminator and Star Wars.

[2] UK Apache was living with singers David Boomah and Sam, who introduced him to the Shy FX track "Gangsta Kid".

[2] UK Apache began singing parts of "Original Nuttah", whose lyrics were written "about six year earlier", between the gaps.

[2] After hearing his friend Juxci praise his work over the track, UK Apache contacted Dave Stone, who ran SOUR Records, and Shy FX, both of whom wanted to try something new.

"[2] In 1995, British newspaper The Independent included "Original Nuttah" alongside Neil Young's Sleeps with Angels and Rheostatics' Introducing Happiness in their list of "Five Best Discs of the Moment".

[7] From retrospective reviews, Paul Terzulli of Wax Poetics commented on the song in the magazine's overview of drum & bass music, stating the track is "As infectious as M-Beat's 'Incredible' but with more energy and a streetwise edge to it" and that "the combination of the Goodfellas sample and horns on the intro leading into Shy FX’s rapid-fire breakbeats and Apache's infectious dancehall chat made for an undisputed classic".
