The D.O.C.

Hip hop
Hip hop

The D.O.C. is a Hip hop act. Their sound grew out of N.W.A. and the Posse, Fat Mike, Ruthless Records, Suge and Shade Sheist. Those roots explain a lot about how The D.O.C. arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Da Lench Mob, Above the Law, N.W.A, Compton's Most Wanted and Ice Cube, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into El Dorado, Snoop Lion, Snoop Dogg, Vanilla Ice and Death Row Records, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 43 connections around The D.O.C., reaching back through N.W.A. and the Posse and forward to El Dorado.
