Young Black Brotha is Californian rapper Mac Dre's debut release. It was issued in 1989 on cassette and the following year on vinyl. Tracks 1 and 3 would later appear on the compilation of the same name in 1993.
As well as the four songs listed above, the LP jackets and cassette J-cards also mentioned a radio edit of "Mac Dre's the Name" at the end of side G and the instrumental track for "Young Black Brotha" at the end of side Q, although they were not present on the LP or MC.
When tracks 1 and 3 were included on the Young Black Brotha album in 1993, track 1 was shortened by 15 seconds and track 3 was retitled to "2 Hard 4 the Fuckin' Radio".
A completely different track named "Mac Dre's the Name" was used as the title track for the album of the same name in 2001.
