It’s been five and a half years since Lil Jon gave fans an album. 2004’s Crunk Juice entered the Top 200 at #3, and prompted the singles “What U Gon’ Do” and “Real Nigga Roll Call.” The onetime So So Def DJ also enlisted production assistance from Rick Rubin, plus a guest-list that included Nas, Ice Cube and Suga Free to what remains one of the few platinum independent Rap albums of the decade.

In the six years since, some could argue that Jon has gone quietly. As his former label folded, the self-proclaimed King Of Crunk became label-mates with Drake and Chamillionaire at Universal Republic, and produced hits for Pitbull, E-40, Amerie and Baby Bash.

This afternoon, it was announced that after the lengthy hiatus, Jon’s long-discussed, but never-released Crunk Rock will be seeing fans June 8th. Morever, Jon & The East Side Boyz‘ seventh career album features Game, R. Kelly, Elephant Man, LMFAO, Pitbull, Soulja Boy and others.

“I’m finally ready to get Crunk Rock out there to my people,” said Jon in a statement. “It’s been a long time comin’ and the album has somethin’ for everyone on it.” He continued, “I gave them every kind of Lil Jon that they have ever heard on an album.  From the Crunk shit, to R&B, to House, Electro and Rock… The album is on a whole other level… I can’t wait for da’ people to hear it!”
