Music From the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Dangerous Ground is the original soundtrack to Darrell Roodt's 1997 action thriller film Dangerous Ground. It was released on February 11, 1997 via Jive Records, and entirely composed of hip hop music songs.

The album peaked on the US Billboard charts at number 20 on the Billboard 200[2] and number 3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums,[3] and spawned two singles: "The World Is Mine" by the film's star Ice Cube, and "Ghetto Smile" by B-Legit and Daryl Hall. "The World Is Mine" made it to number 55 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart[4] and number 39 on the Hot Rap Songs chart[5] in the United States.
