(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, August 25, 2012 ) New York City, NY -- For hip-hop legend DMX and his Ruff Ryders crew, this fall’s going to be wild, as they have recently announced the tour dates for the Ruff Ryders Reunion Tour. Planning to hit every major city in the US but also promising an International Tour in the following months, the tour will feature Eve, Swizz Beatz, MurdaMook, Cassidy and LOX, who have expressed their interest in joining DMX on this tour, but also newly signed promising artists.
The news about the Ruff Ryders reunion tour is rapidly gaining popularity, as fans from all over the world are anxious to see all the members of the mighty crew on the stage together once more. The major tour recently announced by DMX is expected to ‘take the nation by storm’ according to the former Def Jam rapper, who promises there is more in store for fans out there. Featuring high-profile rappers along with special guest appearances by hip-hop icons and a remarkable dose of hip-hop royalty, the all-star tour comes after DMX was release from prison a year ago and has decided to return to the stage, together with Swizz Beatz, during the BET Hip Hop Awards, 2011.
“I just feel like the whole Ruff Ryders thing wasn’t given its proper props...We were very unique at the time. Nobody really brought in a culture within another culture — the bike culture — extreme sports mixed with the street...People forget we were breaking all kinds of records, and I think we was going so strong and so powerful that the industry couldn’t deal with it no more.” - Swizz Beatz, on the Ruff Ryders music label.
In their golden days, Ruff Ryders were one of the most electrifying rap crews, and the news that DMX, Swizz, Eve and LOX will be reuniting for US and International tours could only bring joy to fans who were expecting confirmation of the tour for two years now. However, according Ruff Ryders CEO Joaquin Dean, this year’s tour will be taken nice and slow and, rather than doing up to 40 cities like back in the day, they will focus on building momentum and simply having fun with it.
But the great news is yet to come. A new album is planned for release on January, 2013, with the mixed tape untitled set for release in October. Further, Ruff Ryders are planning to add a brand liquor and an extreme motorsports division.
