Racially Yours is an album recorded by the band The Frogs. The album was originally presented to Homestead Records in 1991, but they refused to release it because of its controversial subject matter.^{[citation needed]} At this point the album only consisted of the first 12 songs. After much delay, it was released in 2000 on Four Alarm Records with an additional 13 tracks, and a tongue-in-cheek sticker proclaiming it "the most controversial album of all time".^{[citation needed]}

Unlike the sexually-charged and comedic material on It's Only Right and Natural and My Daughter the Broad, Racially Yours focuses on subjects such as American racism, genocide and patriotism. The songs are sung from the point of view of both African Americans and white Americans, and the lyrics are equally serious as they are satirical. In the song "Blackman, Blackman", Dennis quips, "a black man's heaven is a white man's hell". In "The Flag", Jimmy urges, "brother, let's make the flag red, white and black".
