The D.O.C. - The Formula (Official Video) 

Sancho Saucy D.O.C is still dope. I just wish my big homie would stop giving Dre excuses like "Its not a D.O.C thing, its a G.O.D thing".

The D.O.C: ;-; I miss the old me.

Daren Sanchez what do you mean?

he got in a car accident and hurt his voice

+Sebastian Luna check oUt his Album helter skelter

Absolutely, hardly ever used profanity in his lyrics. Real MC.

Sledge Hammer not to mention he didn't cuss in his songs. That alone earned my respect.

As a hip hop fan myself this is old school hip hop at it's best, like if you agree

Saif Hasan yes.

I caught it in the first few bars

You are ENTIRELY CORRECT. This is my single favorite song of all time. The inclusion of every element of the song, structure, his flow, the content, that raw ass live bassline from marvin gaye. The clarity of the production and listen to the pattern on the damn high hats! Since, i wanna say 1990 or so this has been my favorite song. Might not even be the best song ever made, but somethin about the way it hit me back then still holds true to me today. Dre was on some other shit, doc was on some other shit and they made magic in them studio sessions. Peace .... on another note though, his album was the last time cube rapped with nwa before he dipped. I still think cube had the hardest verse on grand finale aaaand he went first. My bad just rememberin the times

Mr No Weapon this isn't a remix. It's the studio recored version of The Formula....and it's dope 👍

yes sir

This is the best comparison I have heard.

+Mack Meeks , I agree,but shit at least he lived but i cant imagine the torture of having this talent and not being able to use it. I say hes more like Derrick Rose, what do you think?

+Mack Meeks oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!! word the fuck up.

Adan Duarte Hell yeah rose is perfect

+N Clark yea you gotta dig deep to find anything remotely close.

+dapluva1 Indeed

+N Clark yeah we never hear like that old schoole forever

Nikki Bobbi yasss

PALMS 23 Didn't See That Coming Good. Looking.

+josayyjaycee U gotta B careful out there people on that voo doo shyt

+QUARTERKEE yo fo real people out here playing with some dark shit. homies ex came from the motherland and found out his girl had his name on a Lil doll

+josayyjaycee people dont know how 2 protect themselves from evil because it has been hidden from us 4 so long we forgot that it exists - they took our knowledge away & they use it N secret circles ( Occult ) venues that they dont want the Black Man 2 go back 2 because with this power we R unstoppable - it goes ALL the way back 2 Ancient Khemet - when the Black Man wakes up from his sleep its gonna B trouble ✊🏿

+QUARTERKEE we are waking up slowly that's why they killing us.

GEE BALL M TOWN I still say he would've been the greatest of all time..outdoing Biggie, 2Pac, and all of them...he was already ahead of his time lyrically and he was only getting better. Now imagine, if he was already ahead with the head start on all the other greats.

+Shawn Johnson I totally agree. he flows like a east coast rapper. like LL when he first came out like he sounds like he's outta breath but he keeps flowing. definitely timeless.

+GEE BALL M TOWN it just came back

Shawn Johnson hey what's up check out my video ya digg fasho on RU-vid and give me thumbs up. Thanks brother.

Marcus Smith he sure was and i was only 5 in 89 when his album came out😂.

Sounds more like 1992 or 93

mallet mallet ,I am mallet ,they put me in the mix lol ,clowning Mc Hammer lol

Josiah Lupenui lmfaooooo funniest part. doc is the dopest of dope

Not true

Real shit cuz he wrote for Snoop too

+RobB072772 He's baaaaack! #100

RobB072772 NO! snoops flow and his voice was too pimp. He's dope. there was room for him and Doc.

+Mic Skot what did he writte for snoop?

Marku Ben Yisrael he's actually from west Dallas

Mr No Weapon u dumb

Tamaku'Yahu Byn Yar'sharal shalom bro I’m just gettin hip to this brother his skills is crazy. Any albums you could recommend for me?

Jeshurun all of them

@@miguelreyes9668 that's right homeboy!

hahaha good one

especially Mallet lmao

Nate Dogg and Warren G had a similarly themed intro in ironically Nate's "Nobody Does It Better" music video.

K Chu the song featuring nate dogg on the hook.

siccness.net/wp/the-d-o-c-regains-his-voice

he was good...just not that good. accident or not he wouldnt have been the greatest of all time. thats too big to say.

+William Penate actually he was very good, good enough for people to mention him in the greatest of all time conversation, if he wasn't that good then why are you even listening to him, doc could've been the goat, just as much as any other mc before and after him, someone as great as he was, you can't hate on that, you have to respect it, respect his greatness, the hate stops right now

William Penate I have to disagree.. he's the reason Deathrow was lyrically in the game!. Most of your favorite Deathrow classics were penned by him!

William Penate if he was able to rap all the tracks he wrote after his accident, you’re god damn right he would have been the GOAT

DnOnOnCnCn. What a beautiful name :)

Ms Iam Everythang what you know about D.O.C? Born indeed

yup. drink it all in.

Ancient Will™ it may be too hard to swallow nowadays

There's always been skinny jeans, drama queens and other girly shit in Hip Hop. Just look at Dre in World Class Wreckin Crew or the video for The Message by The Furious Five. This is just what old gangsters of hip hop look like.

Kaizer-Man just had to call out dre? (ºㅿº ｀) that's cold

The difference it's that those skinny jeans where way better than today

On 2Wheels that's where he made his career un the west coast....2pac was from new York...

@@stylezp829 that's where I lose cool points with Pac.

Yea dr.dre was the first to show south love.

Did yall know he did not use one curse word thru the whole album

stylez p Pac was from Baltimore he grew up with Jada Pinkette Smith and Treach

Was that supposed to be an MC Hammer Diss? 😂😂😂

Most definitely an MC Hammer diss. You just don't get music videos like this that makes you laugh and entertains you anymore

Kaizer-Man True

yes. he got clowned by several for selling out. mainly by ice cube and 3rd bass

Mario Todorov Dre made it fam. Of course it's on point

Christopher Williams And did he steal credit on that album too? He was famous for that shit..

PIMPIN4151 Please Research Like Big Sean. 79 To 89

RUBEN PEREZ yes it is sampled from that song.

Iconoclastic don't forget about the 45's! Lol! Peace!

True, DOC was on course to being one of the greatest MCs of all time. Such ashame. Really unfair. He is still regarded as one of the best ghostwriters of all time.

Indeed!

He IS the best ghost writer

Lend me an Ear, Portrait of a Masterpiece, The Grand Finale... This album easily became my favorite. Sad. His voice was golden, and that was the one thing that was not repairable. He was gonna rise fast!!!

1BlueBlack crazy how their both from Texas too bro ! Pimp C - Beaumont/Houston The DOC - West Dallas !

You need to search and see, there's still hip hop out there it just isn't mainstream

yessss.

These are demonic evil demons out now that's why Hip Hop is all fucked up I wouldn't buy none of this bullshit out today

LifeIsNotorious Eminem is currently saving hip hop 💪

From a Southerner

You could even throw in Kendrick too.

John Murillo Kendrick Lamar. The latest in a long line of Dr Dre protégés :)

John Gallagher the d.o.c had a dream about this song he call dre around four in the morning told him about the dream so they went into the studio and the rest is history

smart man...

what bout e and dre

+The Great Cato e wasent a rapper and doc wrote dre lyrics

Marquies Simmons id put cube last

Naw...nobody had a voice like Cube!

That Black Mafia Life tho.

he would have been top 5 G.o.a.t

King Tate

King Tate Yep Yep

***** true that

Jamal Greenfield He would be fucking way better than snoop dogg .... DOC wrote most of Dre and others lyrics for them...

Will Lavallée right

fucking sad at least he didn't died but he could have a big legacy like 2pac..

i mean if he did died

Doc from Dallas

I meant he put his music out with Dare in California u dear ruthless. Let's just say west coast.

1989

Eleazar Ibarrola I think it was 1990

November 1989

Cool song
