Don't Quit Your Day Job! is the debut studio album by American rapper Consequence. It was released on GOOD Music and Columbia Records on March 6, 2007. The album features the song "Grammy Family", a song with DJ Khaled featuring Kanye West and John Legend, which also appeared on DJ Khaled's debut album "Listennn... the Album" and was released as a single in 2006. Guest appearances on the album include Kanye West, John Legend, Really Doe and GLC.
