- Video version is Dr. Dre's Remix from the 1989 single "Mind Blowin'"
Tracy Lynn Curry (born June 10, 1968), better known by his stage name The D.O.C., is an American rapper from Dallas. In addition to a solo career, he was a member of the hip hop group Fila Fresh Crew and later collaborated with gangsta rap group N.W.A, where he co-wrote many of their releases as well as Eazy-E's solo debut album Eazy-Duz-It. He has also worked with Dr. Dre, who is one of the founding members of N.W.A and produced two of his solo albums.
After Fila Fresh Crew split up in 1987, The D.O.C. went on to pursue a successful solo career. In 1989, he released his debut album, No One Can Do It Better, which reached number-one on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart for two weeks and spawned two number one hits on the Hot Rap Songs chart: "It's Funky Enough" and "The D.O.C. & The Doctor". The album went platinum five years after its release. In late 1989, months after the release of No One Can Do It Better, The D.O.C. almost died when a car accident resulted in the crushing of his larynx, permanently changing his voice. Since his recovery, he has released two more albums, Helter Skelter in 1996 and Deuce in 2003. Since 2006, The D.O.C. has been working on new material for his fourth album Voices.
Curry began his career as a member of Fila Fresh Crew, a hip hop group that was originally based in Dallas, Texas. While in the group, The D.O.C was known as Doc-T. The group had four tracks featured on the compilation album N.W.A and the Posse, which was released in 1987 and featured various other artists. The same four tracks would later appear on the group's album Tuffest Man Alive, released in 1988. However, shortly afterward the group disbanded.
After leaving the Fila Fresh Crew, Doc-T moved to Los Angeles and changed his stage name to The D.O.C.. He was signed to Ruthless Records and contributed lyrics to N.W.A's debut album, Straight Outta Compton, Eazy-E's debut, Eazy-Duz-It and co-wrote "Keep Watchin'" from Michel'le's self-titled debut album (all three produced by Dr. Dre). In 1989, The D.O.C. released his Dr. Dre-produced debut album, No One Can Do It Better. The album was very well received by critics, and sold very well, peaking at number 20 on the Billboard 200, eventually going platinum. Allmusic gives the album a five-star rating and describes it as "an early landmark of West Coast Rap" as well as "an undeniable masterpiece".
In November 1989, five months after the release of No One Can Do It Better, Curry was involved in a near-fatal car accident. Driving home from a party, he fell asleep at the wheel and his car veered off the freeway. Curry, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown out the rear window, slamming face first into a tree. His injuries required 21 hours of plastic surgery, and he spent 2½ weeks in the hospital. He couldn't speak for about a month, and he was left with a different, raspier voice.
The D.O.C. continued to write for N.W.A and contributed lyrics and minor vocals to their final album Niggaz4Life and their 1990 EP 100 Miles and Runnin', where he co-wrote all the songs except for "Just Don't Bite It" and "Kamurshol".
In 1991, The D.O.C left Ruthless Records along with Dr. Dre and Michel'le to sign with newly founded Death Row Records. Dr. Dre also used his talents as one of the writers for his debut solo album The Chronic, contributing to the tracks "Lil' Ghetto Boy", "A Nigga Witta Gun", and "Bitches Ain't Shit". He also appeared on the skit track "The $20 Sack Pyramid". He is referenced by name in "Nuthin' but a G Thang", and appears in the song's video as well. The liner notes to The Chronic say, "I want to give a special shout out to The D.O.C. for talking me into doin' this album." His name is mentioned by Snoop Dogg in the intro of the album. ("Peace to da D.O.C., still makin' it funky enough").
In addition to The Chronic, The D.O.C. worked on Snoop Dogg's debut album Doggystyle, and added some vocals on the song "Serial Killa". The D.O.C. continued to be a ghostwriter for various songs on Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg albums.
In 1996, The D.O.C attempted a comeback following the car crash which severely damaged his vocal cords. The album, titled "Helter Skelter", was widely ignored and has even been discredited by D.O.C himself. The name of the album is a reference to Charles Manson's idea of The Beatles' "Helter Skelter" prophesying the end of the world.
Who is still rocking this in 2024... ME!!!
Mee 🎉
Hell yeah !! Keeping it tight !! Peace out, Homie :):)
I have always considered The D.O.C. as one of the most lyrically talented emcees to ever commanded a microphone. His delivery, rhyming technique, and flow was just absolutely impeccable. HE WAS THAT GOOD
He wrote all of dre's rhymes
'No One Can Do It Better' was the first LP that I ever bought way back in 1989.
Astral Luminosity me too I was 11
I got mine for Christmas
Heltah Skeltah was no joke seriously underrated.
Good way to get in. D.O.C was the perfect mc.
@jamesjackson4558 really. I've never jammed it. I remember it dropping. He had a big push for that. Ice cube and dre were mad at him for stealing there album name.
This remix was 🔥🔥. I got this on wax!!
I love The D.O.C ever since I heard the song The Formula! ✌️😎 He had mad rhymes and flow!
SMH
@@Skills0543
Why are you shaking your head, do you not like him?
LaToya Wrestleology SMH means same here
@@Skills0543
It also means "Shanking My Head" that's why I was confused, but sorry pal, it's good. ✋😀
@@TheeKingRayzor Yeah, Shake My Head is really what it means. I guess Lol means "Lots Of Love"?
89' so ahead of everyone else flow rhymes vocal pitch delivery and timing in my top 5 of all time
That's what happens when Dr.Dre operates on the whole track! Perfectionist timeless track right here
menace to society too
You can hear how much he influenced Bone, Thugs, Twista, & Treach in this song. Fuckin' incredible how advanced he was. My favorite MC of the 80's.
Absolutly....flow wise years ahead. - and one of the biggest tragedies in hiphop.
Eminem brought me here
Same
Mmhhmm
Google brought me here
Me too
Don't worry me too
One of the realest!
He like Rakim had no need to curse! True wordsmith!
Very true.
You must not have heard "Satisfaction Guaranteed" by Rakim
Where is there cursing in Satisfaction Guaranteed?
@@sueyyness3642 wrong content, my bad
@@gripperholmes91215 no problem
No curse words, no naked women, no flossing... Just pure rap🔥
What’s wrong with curse words?
Do you want to bless or curse?
@@TrapGodCollie
No need for curse words his rhymes are already a middle finger to society.
@@TrapGodCollie it's lazy, this guy made authentic, bangin' street music without resorting to cursing which means it can be played anywhere and isn't endorsing swearing to minors
@@TrapGodCollie curse words gives the mc an easy out for rhyming .
No one can do it better.!
If he wouldn’t lost his voice he would have been one of the greatest and I approve this message
Inded
indeed 💯
how he loose his voice performing??
Car accident@@jmadz9054
@@jmadz9054 you mean how he lost his voice? in car crash
Too Poetic (Gravediggaz), GZA, The D.O.C. and Inspectah Deck are my inspirations in rap.
Dre is mad underrated. Can you imagine, he took a song that he produced, which was already great to begin with, and remixed it in a way that just changes the feel of the original, but stands on it s own. GOAT PRODUCER
Worth over a billion, the king isn’t underrated anymore
Is this the remixed song? If so, what’s the original?
This remix is so so dope. D.O.C. has to be one of the most lyrical rappers coming out of Texas and probably the whole U.S. Many people thought he was from California but he is from Dallas,Texas.
He's from TX but he rep LA.
Pac, Spanish Harlem, he rep LA
Premo TX but he rep NY
Ludacris, Illinois but he rep ATL
Guru, Boston but he rep BK NY
The list goes on and on.
Yeah but he's got a west coast style. Nothing Texas about him. Not even an accent.
y’all just can’t accept that the south had good rappers back then, but y’all were too busy jacking off the west coast and east coast
Rapper D O C will always be the biggest what-if in the rap game with those dope tracks and dope lyrics
Nobody was flipping their words like D.O.C in 89. Did y'all read that part? "89" as 1989! This man was before his time lyrically.
When this came out.... I was hanging off the edge of the 🌎. PmL.
I've been looking for this remix for over 20yrs.
Always remember kids He is forever connected to Erykah Badu via child ..
And his lyrical influence forever lives on thru his family ..
NOT to mentions his voice is getting stronger and he is rapping again
Remix still🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Eazy E - no wordz, still rulez the video at the end.
The golden age of rap. Its funny how he speaks proper english and sounds fairly educated. Then you look at today's rappers. Its like they've devolved.
That's just society in general lol....the music today is a direct reflection of it.
Been saying this FORVER!!!! This generation of artists rappers that is have most definitely DEVOLVED into dum tard stupid mumbling human beings 😅
Dr Dre used this beat for Michelle' on
"Nice-ty" as well.....
Don’t let them fool you that era all the rappers were straight A students.
Not like...they exponentially have. This ain't rap anymore...
Before he lost his golden voice
John Stursky he lost his voice before this video came out. He was yo mtv raps premiering it. With his voice damaged.
@@B.Piercesports yeah i can the see reference of the car accident in the video
what happen to his voice?
@@sunilkhadka2817 he had a car accident
He is talking about making a comeback. That would be amazing. One of the best to put words on wax.
thirty plus years later this still rocks!! the doc is a lyrical genius , I consider him a member of Nwa; this is also my favorite video by this legendary lryicest!; Eric wright rip 11523!!
Well he is a member, at least I thought he was. He wrote material and rapped background lyrics did voice skits.
@@mustafahajj ur right , he just wasn't contact wise but he was a major factor in writing songs
@@joshuatall2557 I get you. That is true. He wasn't a contract member.
This man is behind alot of death rows success if you want to talk about a ghost writer the doc is the definition of the word it self as he made shit happen
Dallas TX baby represent
I love west coast classic rap
I love this remix wish it was on the CD to
That production was super DOPE!
hmmm...wonder why. i bet this producer went on to make a few other good ones😂
?@@hugh-jasole
Man fuq that with just one album the D.O.C is a certified legend straight up
Could have been in the G.O.A.T conversation if it wasn't for the terrible injury he suffered in that car accident.
GOAT Ghostwriter
Could have been a GOAT if it wasnt for alcohol.
Agreed!!
I say that all the time... BIG FACTS
@@mgomez9736 wuz he drunk in da crash?
Dallas Tx finest, also co-wrote the first chronic album and snoop dog first album
I like the CD version better, that album is Top 5 of the greatest rap album ever, Portrait Of A Masterpiece.
Me too. It's one of the rare instances where I think the album version is better than the remixed single.
1 of the last greats that came out of the 80's era! And also 1 of the best albums that came out the last year of the 80's ppl slept on the D.O.C he was lyrical as hell!
Loved how Dre put that Buffalo Girls in that mix 💯
Thanx, I needed this! The D.o.c forever!
who ever disliked this.. get tha duck sick!
@louie fuse you hit'em with the get tha duck sick man you showing your age. & took me back🤣
"never a segment is negative because im employing what youve been missing"
STREET KNOWLEDGE MCING FOREVER THE DOC! WESTCOAST LA OG
Still funky enough 👌
Dre was just on another level at this time.
Ruthless Records (Eazy and Dr Dre)
Fila Fresh Crew. Doc-T.
John Hopkins I hate to go to work
Thank you Em
I love the tribute O.C. Did for D.O.C. An East Coast MC honoring an MC not from New York is big.
Wow this remix is great. The D.O.C. was that deal. If not for the accident that messed up his throat, he probably would have been a big name in the game. 🎤💯🔥✌
Flow, erudition and the surgical precision of a doctor. Rakim was the only MC able to hold two thoughts and two notes at the same time.
D.O.C. was dope as hell
This is now off the meter, imagine how was it back in the day.
Especially Dr. Dre video remix.
10/10
That beat is so fire 🔥
He is unique that he is a west coast rapper with a east coast flow with metaphors that were probably ahead of its time, so sad that he lost his voice
He'd actually a southern rapper, he's from TX
@@jaeithenomad9296 And Pac is from? Let's not go there! This man is no southern rapper. Big up to TX love TX hiphop but D.O.C was pure west coast regardless of where he's born.
@@mustafahajjstill born from texas so he southern
Such a classic album
This song and Video was so dope
This and Lend Me an Ear are legendary in my playlist
It's the doc and the doctor Dre at one of his best hear it listening to it and groove to it nwa
Eminem keeping the real hip hop culture alive brought me here 🎉
Hip hop was always about fun and had nothing to do with race.
D.O.C was/is the truth!!
Eminem brought me back to this fine ass music video
Never a segment is negative cause I’m employing what you’ve been missing so a total this is one of the many styles of an artist….
Who's here after seeing Eminem's interview paying homage to D.O.C. for his versus on this song?
I am 😅 lol
Simply one of the coldest MCees to do it!! He & DJ Quick sound (rap tone) is similar to me!
"never a second is negative, because I'm employin' what you've been missin"
Ever since my Dad showed me |Its Funky Enough| I’ve been rocking to The D.O.C. I’m not like other teenagers in this generation I for one have a taste for the quality of rap that actually goes hard
Cringe as fuck
This Remix is dope
Woah, I didn’t know this had a vid, dope.
Sounds and looks old school 👍👍
Chris Ricotta thats cause it is
Heard D.O.C on Gta San Andreas radio stations csnt remember which rap one it was. But never thought to listen to any of his other songs, but watching a vid with Em brought me here.
the second verse was 🔥🔥🔥, without the injury the doc could have been the goat , respect and mad love from ALGERIA 🇩🇿
STILL a bad-ass album!!!!
Em sent me here as well thats dope
Man I haven't heard this since I was a kid bro.Dallas Tx in da house
What could have been!! Its 2023
He still makeing funky enough!!
I’ll put this up against any hip hop song in the last 15-20 years.
The DOC is one of the illest of times!
Nah not this 1 homey .. the album version MEANER but I 'member this video 📹
Kodak Better 😈
@DREW lone Kendrick doesn’t have the golden voice of D.O.C. though
@@EFI4EYE Kendrick has a unique voice though
To the 350k that’s listened to this song!! You’ve got good taste in music
Original West Coast rap.🎱🔥🔥⭕
1 big he is from Dallas .
@@williamhendrix9716 Yes we know that but he moved to the west to make his music. His music was always West West!!
Trey Styles yes Sir his style was definitely on the west coast tip but when he left Dallas he took most of the talent with him, leaving a giant void behind that Dallas never recovered from.
@@williamhendrix9716 still from the west coast influence
Yep no country twang in his voice. And if your state touches Mexico, your diffently on the West Coast😎
Happy 52nd Birthday DOC!(Born June 10, 1968)😀🎂🎉🎊🎈🎁🍾👍🏿👏🏿
Stopped him in tracks, showed him that I am ruthless 🔥🔥🔥
Funky enough ❤
Damn this is fire 🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥2020? 2021?

THE OG D.O.C.#1
Helter Skelter was a hard ass album! That shit is dope af
Especially That Spooky Version Of It's Funky Enough That Shit Goes Hard As Hell
Dallas Texas stand up
DOC taught snoop how to rap. you can hear "what's my name" and snoops style on the chronic in this..never heard this track before 🔥
