The End of the Beginning is a studio album by American rapper Murs. It was released on Definitive Jux in 2003.

The song "Transitionz az a Ridah" was featured on the soundtrack to the video game Tony Hawk's Underground.

John Bush of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, calling it "one of the most refreshing rap records in years."

Louis Miller of CMJ New Music Report said, "While delivering bold statements against wannabe gangstas and shaking his head at record industry politics, Murs manages to marry street-life thug-appeal with intelligent lyricism and spitfire delivery, attempting to bring The End to corporate Hip-Hop."
