- From the 1996 album: "Da Storm"
O.G.C. (Originoo Gunn Clappaz) is a Hip Hop group consisting of members Jack McNair (a.k.a. Starang Wondah) (Gunn Clappa Numba One, also known as Big Will, Hurricane Starang and Strang Da Beast From Da East), Dashawn Jamal Yates (a.k.a. Top Dog) (Gunn Clappa Numba Two, also known as Big Kahuna and D-O), and Barret Powell (a.k.a. Louieville Sluggah) (Gunn Clappa Numba Three, also known as Hennyville Guzzler or Henny). The group is mostly known through their membership in the Boot Camp Clik, along with Buckshot, Smif-N-Wessun and Heltah Skeltah.
O.G.C. debuted on Smif-N-Wessun's 1995 album Dah Shinin', appearing on the tracks "Sound Bwoy Bureill" and "Cession At Da Doghillee". Later in 1995, they teamed up with Heltah Skeltah to form The Fab 5, and released the single "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka," which became a Billboard Hot 100 hit, peaking at #75 on the chart. In October 1996, they released their debut album Da Storm, which went on to sell 250,000 in the United States. Two music videos were released from the album, "No Fear", and a dual video for "Hurricane Starang" and "Danjer" titled "Hurricane Danjer". Though the album didn't receive as much attention or as many sales as the other Boot Camp releases, Da Storm received good reviews, and is seen by some as an underground classic. The three released a group album with the Clik in 1997, titled For the People. The album received mediocre reviews, and the Clik's popularity began to decline.
O.G.C. released their second album, The M-Pire Shrikez Back, in 1999. The album received strong reviews, but sold little numbers, and the single "Bounce to the Ounce" wasn't able to make an impact. The trio was missing from the scene until 2002, when the Boot Camp returned with their second group album The Chosen Few. The three temporarily retired as a group, but continued work with the Boot Camp Clik, and were featured on the Camp's third group album, The Last Stand in 2006. The group is still with the Boot Camp and still records.
Boot Camp Clik:
Black Moon debuted in 1992 with the release of the single "Who Got Da Props?". The song became something of an underground phenomenon, and was also able to receive minor crossover success, charting on the Billboard Hot 100 at #86. The popularity of the single lead to a record deal with Nervous Wreck Records, which released the group's debut album Enta Da Stage in late 1993. The album was produced entirely by Evil Dee and Mr. Walt of Da Beatminerz, and featured the debut of Camp members Smif-N-Wessun, as well as an early appearance from Mobb Deep's Havoc. Enta Da Stage was highly acclaimed and influential over the burgeoning hardcore hip hop scene of its time. Preceding later classics like Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) by Wu-Tang Clan, Illmatic by Nas and Ready to Die by The Notorious B.I.G., Enta Da Stage served as a precursor to the resurgence of the New York hip hop scene in the mid-90s. Along with "Who Got Da Props?", the album included other classic rap singles "How Many MC's...", "Buck Em Down" and "I Got Cha Opin (Remix)", the latter becoming the group's second Hot 100 hit.
Buckshot and Nervous Wreck Records employee Dru Ha were both elemental in getting Smif-N-Wessun signed to the label, and in early 1994, the duo released their debut single, "Bucktown", which, like Black Moon's "Who Got Da Props?", became an underground phenomenon, and also charted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at #93. Following the single's release, "Bucktown" became a popular nickname for Brooklyn. "Bucktown" earned Smif-N-Wessun considerable underground hype for their debut album, Dah Shinin', released in early 1995. The album debuted at #5 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and, along with "Bucktown", spawned a number of underground hits and music videos, with "Let's Git It On", "Wrekonize", "Sound Bwoy Bureill", "Wontime" and "Stand Strong". Da Beatminerz, which now also included Rich Blak and Baby Paul, produced the entirety of the album. Camp members Heltah Skeltah and O.G.C. made their debuts on the album, appearing on the tracks "Wontime" and "Sound Bwoy Bureill". Dah Shinin also marked the official formation of the Boot Camp Clik, with all eight members appearing on the posse-cut "Cession at da Doghillee".
Following the release of Dah Shinin, Camp leader Buckshot and business partner Dru Ha founded Duck Down Records after leaving Nervous Records due to unpaid royalties, and signed both Heltah Skeltah and O.G.C. to the label. In mid-1995, the entire Clik (labeled as "Black Moon & Smif-N-Wessun") appeared on the Gold-certified soundtrack to the film New Jersey Drive, with the song "Headz Ain't Redee". In late 1995, Heltah Skeltah and O.G.C. teamed up to form The Fab 5, and released their debut single "Blah" b/w "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka". The B-Side, "Leflah", became a surprise hit, peaking at #75 on the Hot 100, making it the most successful single released by any Boot Camp member or affiliate...
Starang is one of the most underrated MCs ever!!! Not even a debate
i been saying that

My favourite. He’s sickening
The storm was a very slept on album a classic
True words spoken 💯

Starang’s flow and delivery always on point
He’s super underrated too.
STARANG... FOREVER LIKE WU-TANG
If hip hop rewarded the best emcees with monetary gains, Starang would have Will Smith money. The swagger on this song is off the charts.
✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Word
What happened to him?
@@gotjuice9 nothing.
NYC had sooooooo many dope Emcees throughout the 80s-2000s. This crew was noooo exception 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I remember this on Rap City
You are absolutely in You're years 80-2000s. Now from ny to la it is all the same.Back 80-2000s there was a distinction from styles, nowadays smh
This is better than 100% of the modern day so called "hip hop".
Big time
100% of all is right
Years later you still correct
Facts 💯🔥🔥🔥
Man, this one track smokes 99% of everything that has come out since 2000 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That first OGC album was underrated
True.it kinda got overshadowed by nocturnal though, as it came out the same year
Yea word and they're second album too
Still is ^*
but in his time they style are they boom of the moment
What's the name of album ?..
I’m Duck Down staff even when I’m by myself

Agree I put this up with the best of them
Starang just had a natural, conversational flow. Kind of a Special Ed flow of sorts.
@@dkscott331 FACTS!! I'm going thru the vault right now. its a shame he didn't make a solo project
My Guy you said just what I was gonna write.
This is hip-hop
actualy its rap music just one element of hiphop culture ...

Graffiti breakdancing ... What is the rest?
turntablism
@@GeeVoo there were 5 tho right so turntablism mcing graffiti breakdancing and what's the other 1?
i dont know i know only about that 4
Staranag is one of the greatest and most underrated mcs ever
Boot Camp had some of the best production....
Flows and raps like these are so difficult to find nowadays.
So smooth!
Man, I was bumping all of the Bootcamp in the Bronx. Black Moon, Smif n Wessun, Heltah Skeltah, O.G.C and Fab Five. Beatminerz kept them dip too. #90sHipHop #RIPSeanP ✊🏿🔥🌟
So what is that you bump now in the bronx
Same. Had Newburgh ( Upstate NY) on fire when I came outside with my bombox
Gunn clappa 1 2 an 3. I am Jamaican born and raised but this is what i listen to growing up and even now when I'm rolling around the island. I can't listen thst mumble rap.
born n raised in germany but keep it real! True Hip Hop heads never die
Yep me too
Neither can I..mumble rap should die a slow death..this old skool is just sending it
Dancehall gone to nuttin too
I have tuned myself out, don’t even know what the f mumble rap is, nor care to find out. What Is the meaning of rap if you can’t understand it?! Boom bap was and is best part of the hip hop. When nobody listens after a moment and forgotten, ish must be a garbage. This is still being played and appreciated, a very definition of a classic.
Reminiscing in 2020 🔥🔥🔥🔥 college days used to bump this on my Sony Walkman cassette player with the mega bass on level 3 those were the days!
Mega Bassss haha thowback
Who’s still rolling in 2019
2020 my nuh
2020 BRUUH
Yessuh
2020 .. Still!
still in 2020
Deep respect for OGC, Smif n Wessun, Boot Camp Click, Cocoa Brovaz ❤️💣
Not forgetting Heltah Skeltah. Doe u gave props to da whole both camp click. Leflaur Leflah was a defining underground track 4 me personally.
Smif n Wessun/Cocoa Bz was my 1st bar show 21 years ago 😂
@@umidenathan yes Bro. Respect to Heltah Skeltah and Black Moon 👊🏾

Kevin Harris it still is!
Love
Still in rotation. The entire crew was sick.
Starang is underrated
the hurricane starang was kept out of the lime light smh
1 of the most lyrical ever.he keep biggie on his toes even
Absolutely & so was Louisville Slugger. Wish they had put out more albums to follow up with Da Storm.
@@johanmassy5290 So it Top Dog for that matter
Starang was the “serious” redman
feel blessed to have stumbled across this by accident,real hip hop,good for snowboarding

Ogc beats are untouchable man!! Fuego till this day!!!

City on lockdown from CoVid-19...bumping that OGC
lol you haven't sued your "governor" and won yet? must be in a liberal state
Man... just pure FIRE.. BCC was before their time.. just the lyrical fire from all the members of boot camp so glad I grew up in the 90 now best era hands down for rap!
Word!
@@umidenathan
No question!! Sean price, buck, rock starang, on and on and on.. just like all 9 members of the Wu.. the camp , oh man! Just the metaphoric lyrics, the word play.. I wish they got more appreciation... many heads don't know Tupac was part of Bootcamp click!
@@stevenpearson7615 what Pac was a member? I distinctly heard something like dat but overlooked it.
This album is still heavily in rotation. I think I burned my CD from playing it so many times..... 1996 was live
90’s was killer time
High point of rap and hip hop.
Facts 💯. 2023 and beyond. Our generation had MCs that spoke on something
This track still gives me goosebumps ♩🎤♩
I love discovering old school gems!
Brownsville Legends For Sho
This track blew so many fuses in my amp in '96
Yup
Which one? Hurricane Starang or Danjer?
@@GASH_one I bet it was Danjer
9o
Lol foreal that’s a OG vibe I had 4 10s bumpin this 🔊
duck down, all day!! i remember i heard this when it first came out, at 2 am on the radio, cuz thats when they played hip hop[..and i was at the store the next day getting the vinyl joint.. best joint on the album..
“Times awasting no looking back or moves faking devils of all kind cross lines so now I’m thinking..”
Yo thank you for this quote. Devils OF ALL KINDS cross lines. How revealing
2020 still in rotation Salute
love this shit. Have not heard it for a minute or two. But it hits just like it hits back in the day.
Beatminerz did their thing on this album 🔥🔥
legends
no cap, they did so on dah shinin too
Perfect name for producers!!!
I was fourteen when this joint came out.. the good old days walking around the streets of Detroit 90s was the best
2:54 Top Dog entry still hit like rocket 🚀
I did not sleep on this back when... followed all Duck Down religiously when they were hot. BCC, Heltah and the OGC were all so damn good. This Ultra conscious music is almost the opposite of hip hop today.
This track is on my everyday playlist... 2021 it's still slamming
2022 and I’m still rocking dog.
@@jtcash44 facts
20 22 from Perú!!!
@@darwindamian6673 London .
I try to limit my playing hurricane Starang and Danjer to 4 times a week but can't. The best and lyrics draw me back daily. Run from OGC and get caught by Heltah Skeltah. Calm yourself ain't no need for panicking, alah got our backs...
Daaaam I need a beat with this type of vibe!!! These them Duckdown hits 💯
I'm boot camp even when I'm by myself
Who else could it be but mr strangle hit that ass from every angle they dont really wanna tangle
I’m fab 5 even when I’m by myself
Im O.G.👀 Even When Im By Myself
sarah strong tango * as in dance lol but it could be a play on words
So fucking dope. Hip hop was no joke in the 90’s.
From my favorite BCC album!
Big man music classic 90s shit
Millennial rap fans will never comprehend the levels of this
Damn, those 90s Hip-hop Beats have so many varieties and depth. Now, it all sounds the same as though one producer doing it all!
Hurricane Starang has only 8k views?! Oh heeeell no, this should have at least 50k views! Added to my playlist.
And 2yrs later 1M views, some justice at least.✊🏿
it has a milly now
Classic joint from a classic album.
This is original Hip Hop, From The MotherLand "Africa" ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Slavery We Will never Forget ! ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
The beat goes HARD!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of my favorite of all times. Brings back such a good feeling. Way ahead of its time. New rap ain’t got nothing on this shit!!!
Nothing!
Nothing!
well i agree this album is def in my top 10, but it wasnt ahead of it's time, this was late in the era of old school hiphop. However it did bring back the old school early 90's sound between all these new ass beats coming up n the late 90's
@@samuelz2214 lol and yet when I listen to it today it’s better than most of that new mumble rap but I’m also 50 and grew up with Run DMC, LL, KRS one and Big daddy Kane so I’m loving the old shit
True dat
“When I roar like a grizzly they say damn he gets busy!”💯🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯🔥
2019... goddamn... this is so real. How did hip hop get so screwed up?
Hiphop is wack now
There's countless artists still doing shit like this, always has been
As much as i love original Cash Money Records, they really changed the game to make "showing off" the main aspect of hip hop
Capitalism
VintageHipHopSeattle tha dopest hiphop channel anywhere...full props
Extra boombastic...Boot Camp Click very fantastic!!
Really nice song. I never heard a single song by these cats back in the day. Really nice and holds up well. Thanks UPROXX!!
I never knew this group' Dope rappers 90's collections
Still getting it in 2024🔥🔥🔥
I didn't even realize it was two songs in one on first listen, thought it was just a beat switch.
Boot camp & O G C made me fall in love with hip hop even more so! They deserve their followers no doubt💯💯💯
I could respect the classics
This track always stuck with me forever🔥🔥🔥
Everyone talks about how much they hate new music but the new music is still growing. Somethings not right.
Still bumping to this in 2019
Wit you bumpin it too
Bout to keep bumpin in 2020 too
Strang one of the original punch line king 👑
90's hip hop the realless

When he say, MP Rock please prepare my ship for departure, shit gets grimy as fu....
I always thought he said, "and Pete Rock please prepare my ship for departure"...then in the background I thought that was Pete Rock who says, "Better Bet On It". It sounds just like him, & I could have swore Pete Rock did the beat.
Great song! Great album! Amazing group of rappers. Much love!
Their sound was unique 🔥🔥 production A-1 #WhatATimeToBeAlive #YouHadToBeThere
Wake ya punk ass up! Bought this album back when it came out. I was 15 and bumped it non stop. Later that year I was visitin my Aunt's place jus outside Detroit and I awoke to an air raid siren, sounded jus like it did on the track. Tornado was in the area. Bugged me out. Think of it every time I hear this classic piece of Boot Camp magic. Thanks for this and props for all these dope posts Bro. Keep on. Peace.
Use to blast this track in the Galley during my Navy days. Lol
My first approach to rap was through BCC my two first albums were Nocturnal of Heltah Skeltah and Da Storm of OGC, both are in my top 5 after 20 years of love for rap.
Rockness in da Cut dats a crazy site
Beast from the East.!!! Beast from the East!!! Beast from the East
Takes me back to my high school years.
this takes me back to my City Tech days! Boot Camp was all over the streets and I copped when anything dropped.
Timeless piece.
CLASSIC!!!!
Enough golden raps for a lifetime, I’ve struck more GOLD 😅
This beat is very grimy and hypnotic🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Leflaur leflar eshcoshka
