I And I Survived is the seventh proper full-length studio album from hardcore punk and reggae pioneers Bad Brains. It is a mostly instrumental dub album featuring a large amount of reggae, ska, and dub elements with only occasional forays into hard rock and punk music. The voice of band vocalist H.R. does appear on the album, albeit in sampled form from previous albums.

The album includes new songs alongside completely revamped remakes of a few Bad Brains classics such as 1983's "How Low Can A Punk Get?", two versions of the Quickness classic "Gene Machine," and a dancehall reggae version of the usually mellow "I And I Survive."
