No Need for Alarm is the second solo studio album by American hip hop musician Del the Funky Homosapien. It was released by Elektra Records in 1993. It peaked at number 125 on the Billboard 200 chart.[5]

Critical reception

Nathan Rabin of AllMusic gave the album 3 stars out of 5, calling it "a challenging, unique, and uncompromising follow-up, one well worth picking up for anyone interested in either the evolution of West Coast hip-hop or just the evolution of one of its most talented, eccentric, and gifted artists."[1]
