Uncut Dope: Geto Boys' Best is a compilation album by the Geto Boys consisting of previously released tracks from the group's Rap-a-Lot albums and two new songs. Released on November 17, 1992, through Priority Records, the compilation peaked at #147 on the Billboard 200.

The compilation's new songs were "The Unseen", which was subject to discussion due to lyrics expressing anti-abortion views,{{cite web |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1992-12-13-ca-3810-story.html?_amp=true |title=Geto Boys Wave Anti-Abortion Flag With 'The Unseen' |last=Hochman |first=Steve |date=December 13, 1992 |work=Los Angeles Times |access-date=June 23, 2021 }}{{cite web |url=https://www.houstonpress.com/music/a-psychotic-ranking-of-all-97-geto-boys-songs-8244917 |title=A Psychotic Ranking of All 97 Geto Boys Songs |last=Smith |first=Nathan |date=March 17, 2016 |publisher=Houston Press|access-date=June 23, 2021 |quote=“The Unseen” is a nasty, murderous anti-abortion screed }} and "Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta", which later appeared in the 1999 film Office Space.{{cite web |url=https://theoutline.com/post/7069/office-space-20th-anniversary-gangsta-rap |title=Damn, it feels good to be a white-collar worker |last=Schwartz |first=Danny |publisher=The Outline |access-date=June 23, 2021 |quote=As they walk this warpath, three songs — the Geto Boys’ “Still” and “Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta” and Ice Cube’s “Down For Whatever” — serve as their spiritual guides. }}

The compilation contained tracks from their first four albums: Grip It! On That Other Level (1989), The Geto Boys (1990) and We Can't Be Stopped (1991), although their first album, Making Trouble (1988), is only represented by the DJ recording, "Balls and My Word" (renamed to "And My Word" in the album's liner notes). Uncut Dope also contained two previously unreleased songs: "The Unseen" (which is the first Geto Boys song with Big Mike) and "Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta". "Action Speaks Louder Than Words" originally appeared on Ganksta N-I-P's The South Park Psycho in 1992.
