Return of the Boom Bap is the debut solo studio album by American rapper KRS-One, released on September 28, 1993, by Jive Records.

The album was produced by DJ Premier, Kid Capri, Norty Cotto, Showbiz, and KRS-One.

The album produced two singles: "Outta Here" and "Sound of da Police".

The track "P Is Still Free" appeared on the Menace II Society (The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) labeled as a B.D.P.

[1] Robert Christgau, in The Village Voice, called the album "his best, because the music has finally subsumed the lyrics—with outside guidance from Gang Starr's DJ Premier and others, the rapmaster's bassy beats and monophonic hooks have never sounded more catchy or more his own... Horn blats, 'Three Blind Mice' guitar, siren imitation, human beat-box, whatever—all recur hypnotically and leave you hungry for more.
