Da Storm

Nocturnal Boot Camp Clik's Heltah Skeltah turn out willfully low-tech, floss-free music. The duo's philosophy ("Undastand / To be the man ain't even in the plan") is sort of a corner-dweller's adaptation of Tribe's credo ("beats, rhymes & grime"), with a hefty dose of weed and some potenti...

Magnum Force For all its pistol-packing pretensions, Heltah Skeltah's Magnum Force strikes more like a .22. It's a perfectly decent hip-hop album, but decent is about as exciting as it gets. The duo of Ruck and Rock are blessed with two of the more distinctive flows and voices in the rap worl...

Quit Storm
This album is very subtle. The beats have a laid back dark quality to them. One reviewer is right this album has an over cast rainy day feel to it. I have to think that was intentional being that the album was called the storm, although like I said the beats aren't stormy they are to chill for that. I think this album out of all the boot camp click albums to me this one is the least liked and my opinion the most slept on. Definatly a good listen

Don't Sleep On This Era Of Hip-Hop (Classics)
It is now 2007 and I still bang this classic joint. I really didn't appreciate it back in 96 because there were so many hot artists out at that time, but considering the current state of hip-hop or lack thereof, this is a certifiable classic!! One thing I always tell people was that 1993-96 was arguably the height of hip hop (before Puffy and Dupri pimped H.E.R. out). Think about it (Nas, Rae & Ghostface purple tape, Ol Dirty, Jeru, Kool-G Rap, Keith Murray, Dice Raw who ate up BIG in a freestyle, Smif-N-Wessun, Gangstarr, Outkast, OGC, Black Moon, Heltah Skeltah, M.O.P., Madd Skillz, Smooth Da Hustler, The Chronic, B.I.G., Tupac, Flava In Ya Ear Remix, Crooklyn Dodgers, Group Home, Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth, Diamond D., The Alchoholics, Mobb Deep, Tribe Called Quest, Redman, KRS-One, even the Fugees was bangin) and countless others I omitted. All of them dropped classic joints at the same time!! That is unbelievable when yoou look at the mediocrity that exists today. Remember the Source Awards when Suge basically spit on Puffy and offered to take his artists if "they were tired of the producer dancing all in the videos." Oh yea, don't forget Yo! Raps on MTV. All of those artists joints still bang today and these so-called stars and producers of today would have been laughed out of a mic booth if they had to compete in that era. "Da Storm" still reigns 11 years later. Don't sleep on Louieville Sluggah, Starang, Top Dog and the shining era of hip-hop minus the flash and bling (and every other commercial on TV pimping H.E.R.)!

Classic Album from O.G.C.
I'm writing the review today and the CD came out ten years ago. What does that tell you? This is a nice CD. 5 stars all the way. Good beats, good lyrics, what else to you want? Pick it up if you are looking for a good HipHop/Rap CD to buy that doesn't sound like anything you hear on T.V. these days. Too bad the Fab 5 never came out with a CD, that would have been nice.

hot album by ogc
this album right here is hot,the production is on point and it fits them,the beats for this album are dark,this album is good to play when its raining and you have nothing to do,what made me buy this album was the the hottest track on the album the single no fear. there are times when the album does get kind of boring,maybe its because of their style of rappin, but other than that its a good album and its recommended for fans of boot camp click.stand out tracks are Calm Before Da Storm,No Fear,and Gunn Clapp.

Da Calm
Originoo Gunn Clappaz' debut as Duck Down's Boot Camp Click has the gun power to take on any crew. This trio proved to be the eye of Da Storm with this release after being featured along side of label mates and fellow click members Heltah Skeltah as Fab 5. As "Intro" comes to a closing, "Calm Before Da Storm" set the pace and tones for what's to come on this LP. Production from Shaleek for this song is a hip-hop, East Coast feel to lead the way. Quickly, "No Fear" takes the stage and the highlight with mesmerizing production by Mr. Walt. What makes this so amazing is that you can feel them feed off one another with chants like "...what's up, what's up, what's up, what's up..." "Gunn Clapp" is about getting into the music industry. Starang Wondah kicks off a solo on "Hurricane Starang" as the group's front man, but nearly fails without support from the other gunners. Louieville Sluggah and Top Dog make preparations for trouble on "Danjer" as the alarm sounds. To add to the forecast of Mother Nature's fury, the title track compliments this album even if it's just an interlude. Sadat X & Sean Black aid in the efforts that nearly stray from the overall direction, but "Wild Cowboys In Bucktown" adds dimension since we asked for it. After this, the storm gets out of control and loses its strength.
