The Herd is the self-titled debut album from the Australian hip hop band, The Herd.

The single, "Scallops" stayed in Triple J's Net 50 for 22 weeks. The single had The Herd branded 'Falafel Rappers' (i.e. sensitive vegetarians) and accused of being a flavour of the month by hitching a ride on hip hop's jeep.[1]
