Young Black Brotha (album)

Young Black Brotha is the 1993 debut LP by Mac Dre, not to be confused with an earlier Mac Dre release, Young Black Brotha (EP). The album contains several new recordings as well as most of the recordings of What's Really Going On? and a couple of tracks from Back N' Da Hood including an extended version of "My Chevy" featuring Mac Mall. Some of Mac Dre's vocals were recorded over the phone from prison, after being incarcerated for a string of bank robberies in 1992.^[1] Young Black Brotha peaked at #93 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, making it Mac Dre's commercially most successful work.^[2]
