Do or Die is a rap trio originally from Chicago, Illinois, USA. The group experienced mainstream success with the single "Po Pimp", a collaboration with fellow Chicago rapper, Twista, off the album Picture This, that peaked at #22 on the Billboard Hot 100. Group members are Belo Zero, N.A.R.D. and AK-47. The trio has sold more than 3 million albums. Alongside Crucial Conflict, another Chicago group with a similar vocal and lyrical style, they helped launch the city's first national hip hop movement.

In October 2007, Do or Die member Belo Zero was sentenced to 10 years in prison for second-degree murder of 19-year-old Raynard Pinkston.
