Bullet from a Gun is the only album by British rapper and producer Derek B, released in 1988 on Tuff City Records. It reached number nine on the UK Albums Chart. American rap mogul Russell Simmons signed Derek to Rush Artist Management and the album was re-released on Profile Records later in the year. Thanks to the tie-up with Simmons, Derek B toured the world with Public Enemy and Run-DMC that year to promote the album.
The album was one of the first successful hip hop albums by a British artist, and has been cited as an influence by later stars of British urban music. Former BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe has said "Bullet from a Gun" "was a massive album for me" and London rapper Ty recalls "he was absolutely groundbreaking. He definitely broke the door down."
