this brings back so many good memories, wtf happened to hip hop, im from the uk and its so bad now that i prefer to listen to uk rap, i miss those good ole dayz!
I wish they would get O.C. to perform at Rock the Bells....i would pay the 100 bucks just to see him live....and I'd buy the VIP access just so I could meet him....
I heard this song on Hot 97 Old School at Noon in NYC today and it got me saying, "Oh, Shit! Haven't heard this in a while." Well it's been years but it's finally great to hear this song again.
@nec4life Thats funny because i heard it too. Talking about winning tickets and i didn't understand who it was until they let the chorus run a bit. By that time it was too late. Dope record
Aye Yo time is most limited I'm back on the scene, O replenishes potency like four or five Guinnesses Hennessey's flourishing O.C.is nourishing, Performin miracles ill and mad lyrical What stands before your very eyes is a one man stand alone phenomenon, Microphone misery you sufferin taste my repetoire in your face like a buck fifty, done with the razor I'm felt by Aztecs, felt by Asians Portuguese Lebanese and even Caucasians Every form of power, they respect my stats Nigga Cold
amazin song thanks for puttin it up these songz by yvette aint on youtub can ya upload em plez Only wanna be with you , My dreams , The way I feel , Let's stay together
The last verse of this song is the most thought provoking, lyrically poignant bar I've ever heard. As you know, the last verse of any song is often the hardest to come up with. It's similar to a conclusion to a great college term paper. Priceless!!
Peep. IN 1997 i was like the OC #1 fan in my High School-August Martin. It was the release of Jewlz summer... I had football practice 2days-HOT AUGUST Summer... I stayed up late to write OC a letter. i wrote OC like a 3 page letter. Next day..I cut the start of the 2nd session of practice to ride my bicycle to Jamaica Ave to Give O my letter and to get my copy of Jewelz Signed. O never wrote me back! none the less when i got to practice late, i had to do a circuit- BY MYSELF. I love me some OC!
@thenewyorker34 , LoL cool story man LoL, yeah OC is 1 of my fav mcs word life & jewlez are in my top 10 hip hop albums I stay listening to jewelz especially in the summer time I was bumping my world & MUG on them sunny days out my car!
mannnnnnn...cold shit, classic fire, and this cats lyrics and flow ALWAYS on point. Period. "Every form of power respect my stats.......retard your whole brigade, cave in your brainwaves...." Shiiiiidddd, ya understand? Hip hop. RIGHT HEEEERRRRE. This could rock in TODAY'S scene if re-released.
OC........ In the best rap group of all time... DITC. Diggin in the Crates. If Big L didnt die they would have concurred all. Stripped one of their starting 5 at their prime. Shame stupid people kill over stupid things.
i was in high school when dis came out i used to take my tape recorder put it to my tv and recorded it da gud ol days. jus downloaded it on my evo for free
Damn I had this song on my I Pod before I had to erase Now I want this shit back! OC is the Realest MC Very Underrated! People say I live in the past too much...Fuck that MUSIC WAS MUSIC then! NOW it's TOO much Control and Money Involved "Illuminati"!
OC was interviewed in the book 'HOW TO RAP: The Art & Science of the Hip-Hop MC' - really great read if you're interested in how real MCs put their lyrics together and come up with complex flows
@Daybreakhasme Yeah man, "Far From Yours and" My World" was from the album "Jewelz" in 1997. That whole album was hype. I agree with you. The days of good hip hop music are gone.
@neehiii i couldn't agree with you more, more bangers:
das efx - real hip hop, az - sugar hill, mic geronimo - masta ic, black moon - how many emcees, channel live ft krs - mad izm, redman - time 4 sum aksion, big l - mvp, show & ag - soul clap, raekwon - ice cream, odb - brooklyn zoo, beatnuts - off the books, smif n wessun - stand strong, mad skillz - the nod factor, jeru - 99.9%, mop - ante up, mobb deep - survival of the fittest, group home - livin proof
@elvgero15 it's a good thing people slept on oc, keeps the music legit...so many good rappers get corrupted when they reach mainstream, oc is just too real for that shit
anybody eles notice all the illuminati symbols in the video? listen to what he saying,el ron hubbard,choosen one,sublimenal message etc. i neva noticed it when it 1st came out since i was like 14 but now its like dang.....
i agree man-one of the hottest '97 singles-JEWELZ hot '97 album- a great year for hip hop-Jay Z, Biggie and EPMD dropped albums-'90s rap > 2000s rap-"golden age" '92-'98 in my opinion-Master P (No Limit) and CASH MONEY had similar effects on the game-"and even caucasians"-you know it
I agree some good stuff during that time, but the golden age was 1988 son, everyone knows that. Then along came 94' which brought NY back into the scene, then the indie scene from 96-2000 was dope!
Yo this was the shit son, I remember being in college at the time listening to mad underground shit. Wow the 90's was the best. look at us now, mainstream took it over since 1999 damn!!!!!!!! Ol let me not forget master p started the wack shit B
I will never forget when my friend got married in the Virgin Islands in the summer of 2004. OC's "Jewelz" was the record of choice for me at that time. Nothing like drinking Red Stripe on the beach with some good beats!!!!
Don't forget about Main Source, Large Professor, Ed O.G. & Da Bulldogs, 3X Dope, Stetsasonic, De La Sol, Jungle Brothers, 3rd Bass, Leaders of The New School were just a few great groups to produce proven MC's!!!
@spaceage614 The illuminati and the nation of gods and earths philosphy is not that different. The only difference like you said is that all those 5 percenter rappers knew how to make real and good music. I really don't even bother to check out those new songs anymore. Hip Hop from the 90's is really all I need.
@spaceage614 It was hushed and quieted and bling bling hoes and cocaine became the standard. The best hip hop I ever heard in my life came from East Coast 5 percenters. I was raised and nourished properly on it. All of us watching this video were and thats why we here on youtube seeking out those 5 percenters songs most people never heard of 13 years later.
I wanna cry when I hear dis man. Dang man what happened to hip hop man?? You HAD to be lyrically fit to even get into the game far from where it is today. Dang man!! I was 14 when dis came out lol man. I remember Yvette was funk master flex's artist but nothing really happened with that though
@AFanOfMusic0101 lyrically fit bangers: big l - now or never das efx - real hip hop show & ag - next level remix ras kass - soul on ice remix oc - time's up krs-one - step into a world beatnits ft big pun - off the books mic geronimo - masta ic mad skillz - the nod factor black moon - how many emcees i prefer to vomit rather than cry when i hear today's music
Yeah Sun.. these youngins don't know what a real MC is.. you forgot Rahkim., mos def, the whole boot camp click. Black moon was so ill.. forgot about them. thay had this one song dedicated to Big L. that joint rock.. I think it's callin missing you.
thanks man its by ditc and its called tribute and it features oc, ag, and lord finesse. also gang starr had a song called full clip and at the beginning they shout out big L rest in peace
Oh shit.. Pharoahe monch was dope.. Get the fuck out was the joint,, and that beat.. da da da dant !! and my nig RZA. the Wu had some nice Mc's so many different styles.. Eric Sherman of EPMD. Crossover is classic, Gold digga !! Redman before he hooked up with Meth indeed. and vice versa. De la soul. Poor righteous teachers. I can't think of to many West coast MC's from the 90's They were more on Gangsta rap. but they had some dope underground to. C-bo, brotha lynch, cellycell,e40, spice1, quik
This song should be retitled "The blueprint for hip hop and R&b collabo" DITC - OC along with Big L, Lord Finesse, Show & AG some of the best to ever clutch a mic
maan to me hip hop peaked in 90s it will never return to its old glolry.. i feel hip hop is like a living being right now its a baby boomer ready to collect social security...oc one of the greatt's
Hip Hop can return back 2 it's old time of glory. Music is like wine. It gets bettter with time. But, there are people in charge of distribution and these corporate offices that just want to stick with gimics instead of relying on talent. These young artists are only gonna be as good as the people in charge of them will allow them to be. Trust, if another label like a motown or deathrow were to surface where ALL the artistss on the label were talented? & they sold records? It would pose a threat
Even people who enjoy Soulja-boy would flock to a 2-Pac-like artist if one came out today. 2-Pac knew how he said it was as important as what he said. Most artists today do one or the other.
This OC lp was crazy.. Shit takes me back to high school, I was all into Wu and the rival crew at the school was into DITC, i finally really checked the God out, his shit was classic.........
Man, takin it back to Junior year in Highschool. The remix is so much better than the original cuz Yvette comes in at the end and sings her own little segment
Hip-Hop is still here if you live it won't die! Just keep supportin it. You can't bring back the past but hiphop is still alive thanx to hiero for the first indepent hip-hop label or atleast the frist big one.
I bought Yvette Michelle's album. "All I really want is you" was my joint! LOL I also liked "D.J. keep playing", she had a video for that one. I remember it.
O.C. was part of that D.I.T.C. clique...which would have continued to be the shiznit had Big L not died...but thats waaaay back shit..kids nowadays don't know about all that..nor do they care..shame.
@WestmountEstates Yeah. But that was the time when rappers where gettin' shot and killed over bullshit. Sadly but true. That kinda dug the stake in the heart of hip-hop. Kind of makes you miss the '90's. That when catching up the Source Magazine when it had real journalist and editors and I didn't have access to BET, Rap City, and the Box. Listening to this dope track get me depressed all over again that its over ten years since. At times, I wish I can relive the '90's
I LOVE THIS SHIT , DOPY DOPE

This song should be retitled "The blueprint for hip hop and R&b collabo" DITC - OC along with Big L, Lord Finesse, Show & AG some of the best to ever clutch a mic

Hip Hop can return back 2 it's old time of glory. Music is like wine. It gets bettter with time. But, there are people in charge of distribution and these corporate offices that just want to stick with gimics instead of relying on talent. These young artists are only gonna be as good as the people in charge of them will allow them to be. Trust, if another label like a motown or deathrow were to surface where ALL the artistss on the label were talented? & they sold records? It would pose a threat

Even people who enjoy Soulja-boy would flock to a 2-Pac-like artist if one came out today. 2-Pac knew how he said it was as important as what he said. Most artists today do one or the other.

The old DITC crew was the shit. Fat Joe, Lord Finesse, Big L, Nine and so many more. Hip Hop was so dope. I miss you 1996.

He made the song "Whatchu Want" and ran with Big L. Look at that video and you'll see Big L in there a couple times.

I love the 90s hiphop man. I was 10th grade when this shit came out. This shit takes me back to them days.
This was good bleed of R&B at that time and a mad lyrical cat from BK. Even R&B was better then.
No disrecsepct to SOME of the MCs that came here in the mid to late 2000s but ya need to step yall shit up and make better albums.
I am glad cats like Raekwon came back hard to show that REAL hiphop can still be a force to wreckin with and set a standard for the new school.

@WestmountEstates , D.I.T.C is still the shiznit!

@WestmountEstates Yeah. But that was the time when rappers where gettin' shot and killed over bullshit. Sadly but true. That kinda dug the stake in the heart of hip-hop. Kind of makes you miss the '90's. That when catching up the Source Magazine when it had real journalist and editors and I didn't have access to BET, Rap City, and the Box. Listening to this dope track get me depressed all over again that its over ten years since. At times, I wish I can relive the '90's
