Talkin' Honky Blues is a studio album by Canadian hip hop musician Buck 65.

Critical reception

Sean Carruthers of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying: "Instead of jazzy or funky backing tracks, most of the tracks here crib heavily from country, which is where the 'honky' comes in: this is the sort of thing that Buck 65 grew up with and what influenced him."

In 2005, Jason Richards of Now called it "[Buck 65's] most accessible album". In 2007, Dan Weiss of Stylus Magazine placed it at number 6 on the "Top 10 Alt-Country Greats Not Recorded by Uncle Tupelo" list.
