The D.O.C. - The Formula (music video)

The mixing on Mind Blowin'

even the remix

 

[Casso Dinero]

I never noticed the fact that he didn't cuss on the album (aside from final track). That's how dope of an album it was. That shyt was (don't even ask).

 

[Methodical]

I get sad at times thinking what could've been if he didnt get into that accident

Just thinking about it....what if he got into that accident and died and I'm very positive that Dre's The Chronic and Snoop Dogg's Doggstlye would be weaker album if it wasn't for The DOC.

Lend Me An Ear and Grand Finale

Completely agree

him not cussing was a very big deal to me at the time. when it came to Rutrhless Records I wanted cuss words to flow endlessly from jherri curled lips. The fact that my original DOC tape got worn the fukk out regardless speaks to epic quality. He Rakim from NWA though if we're keeping it 100. I also never not tell the story I was told by my fellas out here of DOC in the throes of Baduism showing up to studio sessions with rumplestilskin, genie boots on. With bells on the toes.

DOC > Rakim

That's stretch. I mean a SERIOUS stretch!

neither was Kurupt...doesn't make him any less of a West coast artist

Kurupt don't have typical WC flow though. Let's be for real.

Hiphops biggest tragedy.

Hip hop as had PLENTY of tradegies. This ranks up there though.

One of my favorite songs, period.
There's a book I bought years ago called 'Rakim Told Me'.

About 20 classic albums, discussed with the artist, covering every track on the album.
Didn't feel like copying the text, so hopefully you can read from the picture I took.
The D.O.C.'s thoughts on The Formula:

How is this book different from Check the technique?

 

[Big Mel]

DOC losing his voice can be viewed as a tragedy and a blessing.....he penned Death Row heavy.

[Big Mel]

dre pretty much influenced the direction of hiphop

if doc didn't get in the crash hiphop would be less gangster
