O.C, the former DITC rep and Crooklyn Dodger, got his start rhyming on an Organized Konfusion record. It was back in 94 when he and buckwild locked themselves in the lab and recorded the classic album Word...Life, which features his trademark track Time's Up (a track that he claims was never fully completed); however, It was on his second album Jewelz that he dropped this little gem of a track Far From Yours, featuring Yvette Michelle, backed with It's My World (both of which were featured in the video). In fact, the song was the highest O.C ever ranked on the charts.

I found this record on a dig downtown a few years back, and was geeked up! Wasn't a huge fan of his 2001 release, but I did really like his collabo jawn with A.G...but this 12" holds up today as one of my fav joints from 97...I still include it on all my mixes.

I'll end with a random fact...his debut album had no features at all. The lone feature was supposed to be Nas, but he apparently was a no-show for the session. This would have been their second feature (they both appeared on an MC Serch Remix).

Keep diggin!

OC feat Yvette Michelle - Far From Yours b/w It's Your World

I'm a hip hop artist (@boom-box-radio) with a large collection of classic vinyl and random/amazing mixtapes on cassette tape (with no tracklisting). Some are radio shows and mixes...some are just things I slapped together. I'll try to post as many as I can rip here. Follow my ACTUAL music on my channel @boom-box-radio! Request things...I might have it!
