N.W.A. and the Posse is a compilation album, re-releasing N.W.A and associated groups' underground rap songs from the Los Angeles area's rap scene on November 6, 1987. It is regarded as American rap group N.W.A's first but neglected album; N.W.A's authorized debut studio album, rather, is Straight Outta Compton, released in January 1989. Whereas Straight Outta Compton was certified platinum, one million copies sold that July, N.W.A. and the Posse was certified gold, half as many copies sold, in April 1994.
