Doing It to Death is an album by The J.B.'s, released in 1973 by People Records. The album includes a ten-minute version of the #1 R&B hit "Doing It to Death", which is led by Danny Ray's introduction to simulate his MC in concerts.

The introduction, like many Brown's produced live albums, such as Live at the Apollo, Live at Apollo, Volume II and Revolution of the Mind were sampled on hip hop and electronic music.
