Return of the Product is the only solo album from American hip hop recording artist MC Serch, released August 25, 1992 on Def Jam Recordings, after Serch had made two full-length albums with the group 3rd Bass. It was for the most part commercially ignored and only reached number 103 on the Billboard 200, however it was a critical success. It featured one popular single, "Here It Comes/Back To The Grill" which reached number 1 on the Hot Rap Singles chart as well as becoming a Billboard Hot 100 and Rhythmic Top 40 hit. The song "Back To The Grill" is notable for featuring a young Nas in one of his first appearances on record. The title of "Back To The Grill" is a reference to the 3rd Bass track "Kick 'em In The Grill".
