Billed as a documentary, Ruff Ryders is a celebration of the artists associated with this Yonkers, New York-based rap collective rather than a history of its origins. CEOs Dee and Waah Dean produced the program and they're featured, along with house producer Swizz Beatz, but the focus is on such hip-hop royalty as DMX, L.O.X., and Eve, the label's "First Lady." Contents include interviews, video clips, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into the record- and video-making process. The videos aren't identified by artist or song title, so prior familiarity with the material wouldn't hurt. Eve's "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" deserves special mention; it's a duet with fellow style icon Gwen Stefani (No Doubt) and features cameos by cult actor Udo Kier and mentor Dr. Dre. Although most Ruff Ryder artists have released "clean" versions of their recordings, the language throughout this program falls more into the "dirty" (i.e., profane) category. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
