"Dub Be Good to Me" is a song by British dub group Beats International with singer Lindy Layton on vocals, released on 24 January 1990 by Go! Beat Records as the first single from their debut album, Let Them Eat Bingo (1990). Although writing credits are attributed to frontman Norman Cook it is almost an exact replica of the SOS Band's 1983 hit "Just Be Good to Me", which it is named after. It also samples the songs "The Guns of Brixton" by the Clash, "Man with a Harmonica" from the Once Upon a Time in the West soundtrack by Ennio Morricone, and "Jam Hot" by Johnny Dynell.

"Dub Be Good to Me" was a number-one hit in the United Kingdom and also reached number one on the US Billboard Dance Club Play chart. MTV Dance ranked the song at number 59 on their list of "The 100 Biggest 90's Dance Anthems of All Time" in 2011.
