Gang Affiliated is the debut studio album by Gospel Gangstaz. It was released on October 28, 1994, by MYX Records and recorded in 1994. The album, produced by DJ Dove and Mr. Solo, fuses gangsta rap, G-Funk, West Coast hip hop, and Christian rap, and is seen as one of the first hard-edged Christian hip hop records with a gritty West Coast feel.

The album reached No. 19 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. Its singles—“Mobbin’ (Gang Affiliated)”, “Testimony”, and “Y Cain’t da Homiez Hear Me?”—did not chart on Billboard. In HM Magazine’s July/August 2010 issue, Gang Affiliated was ranked No. 1 on the list of the Top 20 Christian Hip Hop Albums of All Time.
