FIRST TIME HEARING The D.O.C. - The Formula (Official Video)

[@t21luv]

Yeeeessssss!!!!

[@Monklentine]

The D.O.C was in a car accident that shredded his vocal chords, so not much was heard from him after that. He does have some cameo's on other artists songs, but his voice is super scratchy. Damn shame cause he was one of my favorites.

[@StaxReacts]

Ahhh man hate that for him

[@habitatnative]

@@StaxReactshowever, D.O.C. has contributed to most Death row classic albums by ghostwriting and offering cadence advice to snoop etc. From The Chronic, Doggystyle, Chronic 2001 and so fourth.

[@blaqpharaoh7732]

Yup

[@Seldomtraveler]

He did alot of ghost writing for. Eazy & Dr Dre while with Ruthless & Death Row. Didn't get alot of credit or royalties from that due to lousy contracts.

[@paullara7224]

The whole album is fire . Let the Bass go

[@StaxReacts]

Coming next

[@maine1898]

It really is!

[@deeboy4378]

"Let the Bass go". . . Is Another banger off his album.

[@StaxReacts]

Betttt

[@jadakid6942]

Another great reaction 👍🏼 Real good album by the DOC, check out “The Grand Finale” from it - it’s got DOC, Eazy E, MC Ren and Ice Cube.

[@StaxReacts]

Definitely adding this to the list. Can’t wait to

[@hansmransm8835]

Yeah even tho I love the whole album that's my favorite song.

[@Bighjr88]

Mid-80s-late 80s was the best period in rap to me.

[@danielbullock1019]

I used to blast this tape when I was cruising in my car! (Yes, I said tape!) I used to rap along to these tracks back in the day. It genuinely made me sad when I heard about D.O.C's accident that destroyed his voice. He had the potential to be the biggest rapper in the game at the time. Great stuff as always! Keep crushing it!

[@StaxReacts]

Amazing!!! Thank you so much

[@Bighjr88]

That Marvin Gaye sample was unreal!!!!!!!!!

[@StaxReacts]

Wow🔥🔥🔥

[@sonnyblack71]

Shyne's favorite rapper The D.O.C.!!!!

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏

[@kwettronne]

I'm 50 and still have my cassette, 10 grade for me

[@StaxReacts]

Awesommmeeee

[@laminar0886]

Go head Pops!

[@RealDukeOfEdinburgh]

89 classic 🔥

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🔥

[@ckBone24]

DR Dre and E can thank Bro for alllllllll them rhymes he wrote too!!! This album #CLASSICMATERIAL This what we talk about when we bring up the shit then and now. We had BS too but most cats wanted to be getting the reactions I see on these reaction videos with the Young Life!!! I wish you would come out sounding, dressing, acting like me lmao, oh we gone wreck!!! And labels hated that shit waaaaay more back then, now you better be just like everything else IF you looking for FAMOUS over BUCKS!!!

[@TheLobMob]

*"Portrait Of A Masterpiece"*

[@biglazy333]

He was writing for everyone from NWA to DEATH ROW even after he lost his voice.

[@StaxReacts]

Oh wow 🔥🔥

[@yennydude3768]

Big FACTZ!

[@jaypeso1980s]

he only wrote for rhymes for dr. dre while he was at death row. he helped snoop write better by coaching him.

[@scotthayes1346]

Agreed...Let the Bass Go. FIRE...BANGER. That needs to be your next reaction.

[@StaxReacts]

Gotchaaa

[@grendelz]

Beginning to end classic. I saw NWA right before this album dropped. When he came out and did Let the Bass go the whole place exploded.

[@Obi-UnoKenobi]

The D.O.C. was Snoop Dogg's mentor as well as a ghostwriter on Eazy Duz It.

[@DJ_Katone]

CLASSIC!💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@StaxReacts]

🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥

[@Mr500RWHP]

The D.O.C did ghost writing for NWA and then Dre and maybe Snoop when NWA split. He went through the windshield of his car when he fell asleep at the wheel early one morning. He says his vocal cords were ruined when they forced the tubes down his throat in ER...a good song the check out with his current voice is Return of da Livin Dead of the Helter Skelter album, it essentially uses the beat from It's Funky Enough but is still a great song.

[@StaxReacts]

Gotcha, thank you

[@smiggyball]

He is still writing to this day! In my opinion he’s the biggest “What if” in Hip Hop. This dude was a nasty lyricist. If he had a larger body of work he could very easily “Top 10-15” of all time. He could’ve been on my Mount Rushmore of lyricists, after the originators.

[@joeponce9053]

I grew up listening to this if I am not mistaken he is from West Dallas D Town

[@shawnmoe1123]

This album is a cult classic I was a teenager when this came out every single car in the hood was playing this album this album is so timeless it should be preserved in a time capsule The DOC was such and is one of the most important individuals in hip hop history

[@StaxReacts]

Letsgooooo

[@mzondi1970]

I bought the CD when it was brand new and I still have it

[@StaxReacts]

🙏🙏🔥🔥

[@Bighjr88]

Classic right here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@StaxReacts]

Legggoooo

[@rockzilla-666-]

Never have seen the video before. The intro was funny. And the bassline is so cool

[@Tanxr]

Great reaction man. Are you doing any holiday reactions? RUN DMC Christmas in Hollis would be a good one. I am of course going to ask for the uncensored version of DIG 😉

[@StaxReacts]

Yes I am!

[@shawnblack208]

"The doc and the doctor" is another sick d.o.c. song 🔥

[@StaxReacts]

🙏🙏🔥🔥

[@gmac9987]

Top notch untouchable flow. He was supposed to take over the game before his accident. We was all hyped for The D.O.C.!!!!

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🔥

[@marshalljankins4526]

Classic. Check out DOC "Let the Bass go" and "Worldwind Pyramid "..

[@StaxReacts]

Bettt

[@blaqpharaoh7732]

Lend me an ear and Portrait of a masterpiece are more uptempo but gives you an idea of just how deadly The D.O.C. was on the mic! Also after his accident and his vocal cords were destroyed he wrote a lot for NWA you can definitely hear his influence and writing skills in MC REN of NWA’s flow!

[@StaxReacts]

Ahhh mannn

[@WonderMommaOG]

Thanks for this... please do "Led me an Ear". 💜💜

[@StaxReacts]

Added! Mommaaaa

[@ericperry72]

Near fatal car accident, went through window face first into a tree, lots of plastic surgery but he lost his voice. Grand finale track had all the NWA members including Ice Cube.

[@Bighjr88]

Do yall know this sounded in a system, remember this song came during the crack era so just everyone had good car & done you went put an upgraded radio and speakers.

[@biglazy333]

That's D.O.C rolling shotgun in Dres 64 on Nuttin but a G thang and grabbing the 40oz at the party scene.

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏

[@Bighjr88]

The MC mallet was a joke towards MC Hammer 😂

[@cedricmoore1336]

The DOC career was cut short because he had a car accident that crushed his windpipe. But anyway, there's so much more about the deals. He didn't need to check out and why you added check out World Wind Pyramid.

[@travissheehanberg5142]

He was in an accident and damaged his vocal cords. As far as I know he released at least one more album after but he never got his old voice back. I enjoyed it anyway.

[@StaxReacts]

Thank you so much

[@Skorpio420]

Two albums actually. Helter Skelter and Deuce.

[@Skorpio420]

The D.O.C. - A "what if" story.

[@StaxReacts]

Betttt

[@geraldjackson3921]

Check out Parental Discretion is Advised By NWA The DOC raps on that song with them

[@geraldjackson3921]

He wrote for Eazy and Dr. Dre

[@marshalljankins4526]

Dr Dre. King of the beats....Marvin Gay sample.

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@michaelfoster3441]

Legendary Doc , try Doctor Dre produced Murder rap With Above law .

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🙏🙏

[@miconis123]

He could have been big if it wasn't for the car crash he had after this album that ruined his voice

[@StaxReacts]

Ahhh man

[@flaquis2729]

He was in a car accident and it damaged his vocal chords. Tragic in many ways, but without that we may have never got the Chronic album and everything else he wrote on.

[@StaxReacts]

🔥🔥🙏🙏

[@jmass23]

Nice... Brand Nubian NEXT...

[@StaxReacts]

Coming soon!

[@Mr500RWHP]

FYI if you want to know of the D.O.C backstory this a great interview kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnXLdaiZlt2IhM0

[@StaxReacts]

Maybe worth a reaction

[@nikkisatchel4699]

the car accident ruined him...but him and cube wrote most of nwa songs...then he went to death row and wrote a lote of theirs too

[@StaxReacts]

Ahhh

[@purplebeard1526]

Might be the first dis video for cracking on Compton wannabes, MC Hammer, NKoTB, and ripping on one other group.... The car accident aftermath killed his career because his voice box got messed up.

[@StaxReacts]

🙏🙏🔥🔥

[@mzondi1970]

The situation was he was in a car accident and crushed his throat he couldn't sing or rap no more

[@StaxReacts]

Ohhh okay gotcha

[@MichaelSmith-xs9bm]

still better than the trash thats out now

[@StaxReacts]

Yes for real

[@palexander5090]

The Grand Finale has Ice cube, Eazy-E, Ren, and DOC on it. You should check it out
