Off Parole is the third studio album by American rapper Rappin' 4-Tay, released March 19, 1996 on Chrysalis Records. The album features production by The Enhancer, G-Man Stan, Lil' Fly, Mike Dean, Rappin' 4-Tay and Too Short. It peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and at number 38 on the Billboard 200.[2] The album features guest performances by Too Short, MC Breed, Lil' Fly, Get Low Playaz (JT The Bigga Figga, San Quinn & Seff The Gaffla) and Jasmyne Forté (4-Tay's Seven Year Old Daughter).

Four music videos were produced to promote the album, including: "Never Talk Down" featuring Too Short & MC Breed, "A Lil' Some'em Some'em", "Ain't No Playa (Playaz Sh*t)" and "Off Parole".

The song, "Never Talk Down", is a slightly different version than the one presented on Too Short's album, Gettin' It.
