O.C.<\/a> is a bona fide megastar in Golden Age-era hip-hop legend. As a member of the Diggin\u2019 In the Crates collective in the 1990s that boasted MCs like Show & AG, Lord Finesse, Diamond D, Fat Joe, and the late Big L, Omar Credle\u2019s first two albums, 1994\u2019s Word\u2026Life<\/em> and 1997\u2019s Jewelz<\/em>, are classics in New York’s rap lineage. Most recently, O.C. linked up with Detroit producer Apollo Brown for a collaborative album, called Trophies<\/em>. Wonderland<\/em> got a chance to speak with O.C., and talk of the new album – released today on Mellow Music Group – sparked some reminiscing of the early years.<\/p>\n
