All We Got Iz Us is the second album by American hip hop group Onyx, released in 1995 on Jam Master Jay Records. Turning away from the more humourous approach of their debut, All We Got Iz Us has an overall darker and more serious tone, dealing with subjects such as suicide, heavy substance abuse and racism. It is the first album by the group as a trio, as member Big DS left the group during the recording of the album because he wanted a bigger role. The album was produced almost in its entirety by the members of Onyx (three songs are co-produced by 8-Off Assassin), with the production primarily done by Fredro Starr. To date, it is the only Onyx album to be completely produced by the group.
The album peaked at #22 on the Billboard 200, and #2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. Its only single, "Last Dayz", peaked at #89 on the Billboard Hot 100. It is widely considered to be a great follow up to their 1993 debut album Bacdafucup, with many fans citing it as Onyx's best album.
