Crown Royal is the seventh and final studio album by American hip hop group Run-D.M.C., released on April 3, 2001, by Arista Records. It is the group's only album with a Parental Advisory label, though previous Run-D.M.C albums, such as 1986’s Raising Hell, had included explicit lyrics. All songs except the title track featured guest artists, including Fred Durst, Stephan Jenkins, Sugar Ray, Everlast, Kid Rock, Nas, Prodigy, Fat Joe and Method Man.

Crown Royal peaked at number 37 on the US Billboard 200, and number 22 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart.

After DJ Jam Master Jay was murdered on October 30, 2002, the other group members, Joseph Simmons and Darryl McDaniels, announced the group's official disbanding a week later at a press conference called to unveil the formation of a coalition of music industry artists and a fund intended to financially assist Mizell's family.^[6]
