Ghetto Pop Life is the debut album of producer Danger Mouse and rapper Jemini. It was released in 2003 on Lex Records and also featured Tha Alkaholiks, Cee-Lo, The Pharcyde, J-Zone and Prince Po from Organized Konfusion. In 2004 a reprint of the album with three additional tracks was released in the US.

Lex Records also released three EPs with tracks (and remixes of tracks) from the album: Take Care Of Business EP, Conceited Bastard EP and the 26 Inch EP.

Moreover there was a special promotional CD, the Ghetto Pop Mix, a mixtape with short remixes of the tracks from the album fading into each other, along with a couple of new exclusive tracks.
