Guns in the Ghetto is a studio album by UB40. [8] It was released in 1997 on the DEP International label.
NME wrote that the band "play reggae with the edges filed off, made anodyne and palatable for people who aren't that interested in music any more." [3] The New Rolling Stone Album Guide wrote that the album "has good instincts and solid playing but generally weak material." [7]
