Dr. Dre, Busta Rhymes Guest On Ruff Ryders Album

Juvenile, Eminem, Snoop Dog and others are featured on crew's second full-length LP.

The Ruff Ryders crew will release its new album, Ryde or Die Volume II, on June 20, featuring guest appearances from Dr. Dre and Eminem, Juvenile, Busta Rhymes, Snoop Dogg and others.

Rappers featured on the first album, Ryde or Die Volume I, including DMX, the Lox, Eve and Drag-On, will contribute tracks to the follow-up. Other guest rappers featured are Trick Daddy, Method Man and Redman.

Production will be handled by Timbaland, Dr. Dre, DJ Premier and the Ruff Ryders in-house production wizard, Swizz Beats. Teflon, the newest addition to the Ruff Ryders production team, produced the first single, "Got It All," by Eve featuring Jadakiss.

Jadakiss is enjoying chart success as a featured artist on Mya's hit "Best of Me," which is #14 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart.

Jadakiss' solo album will be released in late July, according to Interscope publicist Junior Suriel.

The Ruff Ryders are on the heels of completing the Ruff Ryders/Cash Money tour, which featured DMX, Eve, the Lox, Drag-On, Juvenile and others.

The tour was marred by an incident that broke out backstage April 3 at the Fleet Center in Boston between members of Made Men, who were openers on select dates, and members of DMX's entourage. Five people were stabbed backstage, and six people were hurt according to police spokesperson Lisa Zschuschen.

"One [person] was hit in the head with a bench," Zschuschen said.

Ryde or Die Volume I debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart in 1999 and is certified platinum. It spawned the hit "What You Want" by Eve.
