O.C. & A.G. have posted a second live video from their Brooklyn CD release party on Nature Sounds’ YouTube channel.  You may remember watching their performance of “Keep It Going” from the same Southpaw show which they released last month, but this time the guys are treating fans to their live rendition of the Showbiz-produced cut, “2 For The Money.”

O.C. & A.G. are also excited to announce that their debut album, Oasis, finally hit stores last week, just in time for us to give thanks.  The legendary New York MCs and D.I.T.C. crew members may have over 10 albums between them under their belts, but Oasis is their first outing as a duo, and based on early reviews, shouldn’t be their last.  Check out the title track below and see for yourself.

New collabo LP, OASIS, featuring production from fellow D.I.T.C. members Show & Lord Finesse, set to drop Nov. 24th on  Nature Sounds / D.I.T.C. Records

Legendary New York MCs, O.C. & A.G. return from a brief hiatus to quench the thirst of hip-hop fans worldwide.  The album, refreshingly titled, OASIS, is executive produced by Show (of Showbiz & AG fame) and features stellar production by Show, Lord Finesse, E. Blaze, and Statik Selektah.  O & A, longtime friends and crewmates, first collaborated together on the classic track “Weed & Drinks” and ever since then talked about doing a whole album together.

“It was organic cause the chemistry was also so crazy,” explains OC. “The whole process was really pure and from the heart and hip-hop fans are gonna love it!” says AG about their new album.

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens, O.C grew up across the street from another lyrical legend, Pharoahe Monch of Organized Konfusion.  That neighbor spawned O.C’s recording debut, which was in 1991 on Organized Konfusion’s classic “Fudge Pudge.”  O.C. was tour when he first ran into D.I.T.C. members Lord Finesse & Buckwild.  After the tour, Buckwild and O.C worked on a demo that would eventually become the Wild Pitch Records classic, Word…Life which contained the classic lyrical assault Time’s Up, later featured on Eminem’s biopic, 8 Mile.
