Are You In?: Nike+ Original Run (a pun on "R-U-N") is an iTunes exclusive mixtape by hip hop trio De La Soul, in association with Nike. The album is produced by Flosstradamus. In the past, De La Soul collaborated with Nike to make designer shoes, and months later was picked to be a part of Nike's Original Run series, aimed at runners. Are You In? was the first album by De La Soul in five years and is one long continuous mixtape released on iTunes with an additional digital booklet. It was generally well received by music and hip hop critics and was reviewed by Wired, Urb, and the Hip Hop DX online magazine.

Production
In the past De La Soul teamed up with Nike, Inc. to make designer shoes, as well as the company collaborating with many other bands such as A-Trak. The duo was picked months later to be a part of Nike's Original Run series, which Nike has already made five albums. De La Soul released the iTunes exclusive album in celebration of 3 Feet High and Rising's 20th anniversary, in association with Nike. The album is a part of the "Nike - Sports Music" series, specifically designed for runners. Posdnuos of De La Soul stated, "When we first heard about this project we were psyched on the challenge. We pride ourselves on being able to get bodies moving, so it was cool to do it with a specific goal in mind – giving runners the sonic fuel to clock some miles." Are You In? was the first album by De La Soul to be released in five years. The album artwork was designed by Joe Buckingham, Posdnuos' favorite graffiti artist, who also designed various other De La Soul covers and designs.
