'''''Raw as Fuck''''' is an album by the British electronic music group Freestylers. Released in July 2004, it was the group's third album. It is also the first full-length album release from the Against the Grain label. The remix album was released almost a year later.
The album included breakbeat dance music, with tracks including the singles "Get a Life", "Push Up" and "Boom Blast". "Push Up" was particularly successful in Australia as a single, where it reached No. 2 in the charts, although in both Australia and the United Kingdom the album failed to make a major impact on the album charts.
The tracks "Punks", "The Slammer" and "No Replica" were originally from the singles the Freestylers created as Raw As Fuck in 2002–2003.<ref>Freestylers Singles/EPs</ref> The three singles were their first ever productions in Against the Grain.
Despite the album's title, the album did not carry a "Parental Advisory – Explicit Content" warning due to a lack of substantial profanity on the tracks themselves.
