Secondary Protocol is the first studio album by American rapper Wildchild. It was released on Stones Throw Records in 2003.{{Cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/secondary-protocol-mw0000028116|title=Secondary Protocol - Wildchild | Songs, Reviews, Credits | AllMusic|website=AllMusic}} The album's title meaning is about the artist wanting to show a more personal view, which is alternative to what he brings as a member of Lootpack.{{citation| url=https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=https://www.abcdrduson.com/interviews/wildchild-interview/&prev=search&pto=aue|website=www.abcdrduson.com|title=Abcdrduson: Interview - Wildchild|date=11 July 2004|quote=Secondary protocol is something much more personal. By "personal" I mean getting people to hear rap on a more personal level, but also for more battle raps. Secondary protocol, it's a bit like plan B, the alternative. That's what it means. No matter the mainstream or the underground, I wanted to put dance tracks and others more personal in one and the same album. I grew up listening to party music, not just Hip-Hop. This album reflects what influenced me a lot: a bit of battle, a bit of dancing tracks, a bit of deeper lyrics, all of this so that in the end people feel that it's Wildchild's album above all else.. Not the copy of Lootpack's Wildchild, although Madlib does produce.}}

The title track is featured in the video game Tony Hawk's Underground.{{cite web|url=https://ign.com/faqs/2007/tony-hawks-underground-soundtrack-song-list-801387|title=Tony Hawk's Underground - Soundtrack Song List|work=IGN}}
