Kik Off is the third album by British hip-hop artist Blak Twang, released in 2002 on the Bad Magic imprint of Wall of Sound Records.

The album was mostly produced by Tony Rotton, with two tracks produced by DJ Dynamite and one by Harry Love.{{cite web | title = Blak Twang - Kik Off | publisher = Discogs | url = http://www.discogs.com/release/247609 | accessdate = 2008-12-07}} Guest appearances come from singer Est'elle and Jahmali, from rappers Mystro, Rodney P, Karl Hinds and Seanie T, and from then-Radio 1 DJ Lisa I'Anson, whose narration on "Dirty Stopout Uncovered" alludes to her role as narrator on the TV documentary series Ibiza Uncovered.

The tracks "Kik Off", "Trixstar", and "So Rotton" were released as singles. The video for the first single, "Kik Off", was the first music video directed by graffiti artist Banksy, who also designed the album's artwork.

Rotton cited extensive touring experience in the UK and Europe and the birth of his second child as influences on the album.{{cite web
