Sprain Your Tapedeck is the first EP by American hip hop musician Edan, released on Lewis Recordings in 2001.
Matt Kallman of Pitchfork Media felt that Sprain Your Tapedeck combined "the hilarity of his Biscuithead 12-inch debut (1999's 'Sing It, Shitface') with the nostalgia of the recent Critical Beatdown-era tribute track 'Ultra 88'". Stanton Swihart of AllMusic called the EP "a continuation of the Edan aesthetic, part wild-style throwback and part future Dada, where old-school 808 drum loops mingle with the rapper's one-of-a-kind b-boy world view."
It was chosen by The Wire as one of their 2003 Rewind list.
