SouthernUnderground is the second album from American rap duo Cunninlynguists, released in 2003. As well as resident vocalist Deacon The Villain and DJ-vocalist Kno, the group employed Mr. SOS to accompany on vocals for much of the album. In addition to these three, many artists from the QN5 record label are featured on the songs, most notably Tonedeff and Cashmere The PROfessional.

It is best known for its underground hit single "Seasons" with Masta Ace that details that history of hip hop comparing different eras to seasons of a year. It also has many political songs, such as "Dying Nation," "War," and "Appreciation," which takes a somber, storytelling approach to the September 11th attacks.

It also contains the song "Falling Down" which is a based on (and somewhat a parody of) the movie of the same name starring Michael Douglas who plays D-Fens, a man who has a breakdown and makes his way home in a very violent manner.
