Persona Non Grata is the third studio release by Dutch rap metal band Urban Dance Squad. With the departure of DJ DNA, the band took a more aggressive approach than on their previous two albums, resulting in a largely hard rock and heavy metal influenced album. The stylistic change resulted in some moderate European success. The album was released in April 1994. The song "Demagogue" became a European club hit. The band can be seen performing the album's track "Good Grief!" in the 1995 film, Hackers.
