The World is a Ghetto was WAR's 1973 funk/R&B/latin fusion jam, which became the top-selling record in America that year. It features "Cisco Kid," inspired by the popular mid-century TV show, instrumental jam "City, Country, City," “Four Cornered Room”, “Beetles In The Bog”, “Where Was You At,” and the title track (which has been sampled in more than 31 hip-hop songs, including tracks by Geto Boys, Ice T-, and A$AP Mob).

This release features the progressions of the two key tracks (“Cisco Kid” and “The World Is A Ghetto”), and alternate takes/reimaginings of the remaining tracks.
