''Depart from Me'' is the third solo studio album by American rapper Cage. It was released by Definitive Jux on July 7, 2009. It peaked at number 133 on the ''Billboard'' 200 chart. Production Cage describes ''Depart from Me'' as being "an exorcism of sorts", stating that it is more personal than his previous albums.
