O.C. - "Time's Up"

O.C. might be the worst name for a rapper ever (even if it is the guy's intials), and he never made a great album, but this is one of the definitive songs about rappers who talk smack but don't live the life they talk about. And O.C. really knows how to open up with a fresh line.

O.C. was one of those rappers like Ras Kass or Canibus, that was a very skilled MC but could never quite capture the magic on any record. Although O.C. did have a great guest verse (from when he was an unknown) on Organized Konfusion's 1991 single "Fudge Pudge" (forthcoming).



You lack the minerals and vitamins irons and the niacin
F**k who that I offend rappers sit back I'm bout to begin
Bout foul talk you sqwak never even walked the walk
More less destined to get tested never been arrested
My album will manifest many things that I saw did or heard about
Or told first hand never word of mouth
What's in the future for the fusion in the changer?
Rappers are in danger who will use wits to be a remainder

Also, T, let's not forget why he calls himself O.C. It stands for "Zero Charisma." At least when he's not rapping.
