Till Death Do Us Part is the fourth studio album by American hip hop group Geto Boys. It was released on March 9, 1993 via Rap-A-Lot Records and Priority Records. Recording sessions took place at Jungle Style Studios and Digital Services in Houston, Texas from April to July 1992. Production was handled by John Bido, James Smith, Tony Randle, N.O. Joe and Mike Dean. It includes guest appearances by 2 Low, Seagram, 5th Ward Boyz, Ganksta NIP, 3-2, Odd Squad, Too Much Trouble, DMG and Big Mello. Willie D had left the group in 1992 to temporarily pursue a solo career, so fellow Rap-A-Lot artist Big Mike joined the group alongside Scarface and Bushwick Bill for this album.
The album peaked at #11 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Till Death Do Us Part released the singles: "Six Feet Deep" (which reached #40 on the Billboard Hot 100, #37 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks, #2 on the Hot Rap Singles and #34 on the Rhythmic Top 40), "Crooked Officer" (which peaked at #70 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and #4 on the Hot Rap Singles chart), "Straight Gangstaism" and "Street Life". On May 9, 1993, the album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), with selling over 500,000 copies in the United States.
