Do or Die is the second studio album by American New York-based rapper Tim Dog. It was released in 1993 via Ruffhouse/Columbia, and produced entirely by Tim Dog (not counting studio personnel and several co-producers - among them long-time collaborators Ced Gee, T.R. Love and Kool Keith of Ultramagnetic MC's). The album represented Tim's shift of focus, away from confrontation with the West Coast and concentrated on hardcore East Coast rap. The album contained a shout-out to Tupac Shakur whom Tim thanked for assisting him when involved in a potentially violent situation when touring in California.

The album peaked at number 53 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and number 17 on the Heatseekers Albums, spawning a single "I Get Wrecked" with KRS-One, which peaked at number 8 on the Hot Rap Songs.[3]
