Lauschgift is the fourth studio album of the German hip hop group Die Fantastischen Vier. It peaked the German charts at position 2, the Austrian at 10, and the Swiss at position 5.

The title—a pun mixing the German noun Rauschgift ("narcotics") with the verb lauschen ("to listen, to eavesdrop")—was inspired by a scene in the film Breakfast at Tiffanys. The German-language dub of the film, in which I. Y. Yunioshi mispronounces the word Rauschgift, was sampled on the album's first track.
