Omar Credle, best known by his stage name, O.C., represents Brooklyn and Queens, NY. From his early beginnings as part of the Organismz crew w/ Organized Konfusion, to becoming a staple member of the legendary D.I.T.C. crew, O.C. has solidified his stature in Hip Hop for almost 25 years strong. A master of vivid imagery, profound lyrics, real-life introspect, clever wordplay and confident flow. 

The O​-​Zone Files: Rare Demos & Unreleased Tracks (released 12 June, 2019) is a massive collection of rare songs, unreleased demos, remixes, mixtape exclusives and freestyles from DITC’s own legendary O.C. With 7 solo and 6 collaborative albums under his belt, Mr. Omar Credle compiles some of his best but hard-to-find work including many classic recordings spanning from his first demo recordings in the early ’90s, all the way into his seasoned sounds during the early 00’s. Of course, all of his Diggin’ In The Crates cohorts pop up here including the late great Big L, along with his Organismz Crew (a la Organized Konfusion and Mr. Complex).

With 51 tracks, this colossal compilation is intended to quench the thirst of any die-hard O.C. or DITC fan and bring to light many sought-after cassette dubs that now have been sourced from original masters and digitally remastered. – Bandcamp O.C.
