Innercity Griots is the second studio album from the American hip hop group Freestyle Fellowship. It was released on April 28, 1993 on 4th & B'way Records and distributed through Island Records.
Nathan Bush of Allmusic praised the group's creativity and range as well as the album's production, which he felt showed an improvement from their previous effort. Elena Washington of The Dallas Weekly commented that "they gave an unlikely musical offering at the time when everything was gangs and sets thrown as far as hip-hop was concerned in Los Angeles." In 2012, it was chosen by The Daily Californian as one of their 10 Albums for the Hip-Hop Layman.
