AmeriKKKa's Nightmare is the third studio album by American rapper Spice 1, released November 22, 1994 on Jive Records. The album was produced by Ant Banks, Battlecat, Blackjack, DJ Slip and Spice 1. It peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and at number 22 on the Billboard 200. One single, "Strap on the Side", peaked at number 74 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. This album is considered by many to be his most influential album, as well as containing guest appearances from major artists such as E-40, 2Pac, Method Man and 187 Fac.

Along with singles, music videos were released for two songs: "Strap on the Side" (featuring a cameo appearance by 2Pac), and "Face of a Desperate Man" (featuring a cameo appearance by G-Nut).

The original version of "Nigga Sings the Blues", was heard in the film, Jason's Lyric, and was also released on the film's soundtrack.

Allmusic - "...AmeriKKKa's Nightmare appealed to hip-hoppers who had been savoring Dr. Dre's The Chronic in 1994...the CD manages to hold attention thanks to Spice's appealing flow (his rhyming skills are solid, to be sure) and the very Dre-ish produced tracks..."
