Their first album <I>Da Storm</I> was released in 1996 and introduced listeners to a group firmly rooted in the same formula as their predecessors. The album was a moderate success and continued in the tradition of Beatminerz production with its street-smart rhymes from the triple threat of Starang Wondah, Louieville Sluggah and Top Dog. While many of the BCC brethren returned with somewhat lackluster follow-ups, O.G.C. surprised all naysayers with their exceptional sophomore release, <I>The M-Pire Shrikez Back</I> (1999). Their second album saw them working with new producers and was much more up-tempo than their earlier work. While subject matter stayed true to violent threats and the pursuit of women and weed, their back-and-forth mic presence and colorful lyricism was stronger than ever. - Brolin WinningBoom Bap/Ninetiesen720Wed, 2 Dec 2009 20:20:03 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16927&rws=%2Fogc%2Fdiscography.rss As the fourth group to emerge from NYC's Boot Camp Clik, the Originoo Gunn Clappaz had some big shoes to fill.
