Description: The Longest Barrel Ride is the second album by the band Slightly Stoopid, released by Skunk Records on November 21, 1998.

Genre: Alternative Hip-Hop | Style: Reggae

Description: Top of the World is the seventh studio album by American rock band Slightly Stoopid. It was released on August 14, 2012.

Love; Fishbone frontman Angelo Moore; ex-Jurassic Five emcee extraordinaire Chali 2na; Dumpstaphunk’s Ian Neville; and hit-making singer/songwriter Angela Hunte.

Slightly Stoopid unveiled the video for the album’s title track, starring comedian/actor/cult hero Tommy Chong, which can be viewed on VEVO.com.

Genre: Alternative Hip-Hop | Style: Reggae
Format: Album

Description: Slightly $toopid is the first full-length album by Slightly Stoopid and was released in 1996 on Skunk Records. On the original 1996 Skunk Records print, the CD included two hidden tracks after "To a Party." The first hidden song is "Prophet" with the late Bradley Nowell of Sublime playing bass. The second hidden song is "Marley Medley" which contains "Guava Jelly" and "This Train," both Bob Marley covers. The printing was very limited at an estimated 1000 copies.

Since the original prints were made before Slightly Stoopid were well known, they are rare and hard to come by. Original prints used to sell on eBay consistently at around $300 because of its out of print status and the demand for the hidden track with Bradley Nowell. It was out of print for 10 years and in 2006 was re-released together with their second album Longest Barrel Ride as a double album. Both albums were out of print.
