| Name: | Rap Jam, Volume 1 |
| Author/Vendor: | Mandingo/Motown |
| Released: | 1995 |
| Type: | Sports (basketball) |
| Language: | English |
| Premise: | Hip-hop soundtracked street basketball with teams drawn from synergy-minded rhymers like Public Enemy, Queen Latifah, Warren G, Onyx, and Naughty By Nature. Only the Genesis version features NWA founder Eazy-E, whose own gangsta-flavored game, Hittin' Switchez, was also scheduled for release shortly before his premature death in 1995.

| Impressions: | My opinion is based on the SNES cart, as that's the only version I have right now, so here goes. It's an unsuccessful attempt to graft together Jammit and NBA Jam with a little YACEG frosting on top. In other words, it's a complete waste of silicon and plastic. |

| Recommended Emu: | No cart dump known to exist at this time. |
