Dub Incorporation (since 2006 just Dub Inc) is a reggae band from Saint-Étienne, France together since 1997. They combine a range of styles, including dancehall, dub, ska and even rap. Their music is also influenced by African and Arab music with their songs being sung in a mixture of French, English, Arabic and Kabyle.

The band has released five studio albums. The first three, Diversité (2003), Dans le décor (2005) and Afrikya (2008) to Dub Incorporation. However starting with Hors contrôle (2010) and Paradise (2013), they shortened the name and credited the albums to Dub Inc
