Around this time a young Greezo was running the streets off Brodie and Slaughter ln. After he caught his first serious case in 98 he turned to the streets full time. "I'm not even from the 04 I'm from Brodie but when I left momma's thats where I was accepted and where I met S and J. Back then it was R.C., Killa P Mike D AD LG Chill Will Lil J and S. Young niggas Lil J was gettin busy at like 12." Greezo claims in his booming baritone. The boys would freestyle to past the time when they were on the block. "We just did the shit for fun" recalls an excited Greezo. "We ain't have no equipment or no shit like that. So my nigga Phil would beatbox for hours on end! We all just tried to keep up with him."
Greezo was the first in the group to really begin to take rap seriously. Admitted into a group that Phil had formed with some high school friends called Tre Side. Greezo would also go on to release a local classic album in 2003 entitled 'HOODPOLITIX'. "Right after that everybody started getting locked up. I knew there had to be a way out of the struggle." states Lil J. "Free my niggas Phil,Big KC,RC, and Mafia Mike D! Them my niggas sittin down right now as we speak." The COD finally got way too hot as an trap often does and S.Dot finally decided it was time to move around. He moved in with his Dad and re-enrolled in school on a basketball scholarship. Thats where he met Tuk-Da-Gat and a instant friendship was formed. "We just clicked off the muscle. He was a hustler and I was a hustler so we just combined hustles. Then it was a paper gettin marathon." Tuk states. S. introduced Tuk to the rest of the crew and he was family.
Meanwhile Greezo was busy promoting Hoodpolitix and performing on major label tickets while still keeping one foot firmly in the streets. After a string of events in early 2005 Greezo found himself incarcerated and looking at 5 to 99 years on a aggravated robbery charge. Lil J who had been accompanying Greezo and Phil to the studio from the beginning took charge and started paying for studio time to record his Youngest-in Charge mixtape. "I got in the lab wit S and we knocked that out in a couple of days. Pressed it up and put it in the streets. They was lovin it a fiendin for more" recalls Lil J.
Shortly after S. met and began recording with a aspiring local producer. "We was tired of paying 20 or 30 an hour to record so we hooked up with Joe and started laying down heat.... We needed a name so we decided on C.O.D cuz it was the only real choice. It already held a special and deep meaning for us". S. Dot, Lil J and the producer Joe recorded over 70 orginal songs for their debut LP "Gutta Music". While they were recording the album Greezo copped out to plea and was released to continue his career. Things were now complicated when he returned home. "Joe and Greezo weren't really clicking." points out Tuk. "Greezo is the CEO but Joe didn't know Greezo and thought he was trying to steal the group's shine." Things intensified and eventually led to his departure from the group.
Now down to just S. Dot, Lil J and Tuk the group began recording at "The Palace" Greezo's Cutthroat recording studio. "It just made sense for him to be in the group cuz he was in the "C.O.D" when it was just the circle off S. Lamar before this rap shit." Lil J states. So now officially 4 the group recorded and released their first mixtape 'Ova Da Stove vol. 1'. Now classic mixtape comprised of swaggeristic 16's coupled with vivid street narratives and insightful lyrics.
Whats seperates the C.O.D from every other group is each individual could very well have a succesful solo career. Each with a distinctivly different style, swagger and appearence. Mr.Greezo aka the Hoodpolitician is the C.E.O. Of Cutthroat records, which C.O.D. is signed to. Greezo's ability to balance lyricism, swag and social awareness make him a threat to any M.C..
Lil J Aka J Weezy the 04 Fly Guy AKA The Youngest in charge is the heart and soul of the C.O.D. His agressive rhymes let you know he is not to be fucked with. J has a reputation for saying whatever the fuck he feels whenever he feels like saying it, and you will respect it.
Tuk da gat aka the secret weapon has a slick unorthadox flow mixing smooth rythym riding lyrics with advanced metaphors you have to hear a couple of times before you realize what the fuck just happened. In other words, REWIND.
S.dot is the glue that holds the group together. His studio work ethic is unparalleled. "Hit after hit till we reach the top," he says. With everything they have been through individually, and everything they bring to the table as a collective theres no denying that C.O.D. is the future.
Let's Go
DA C.O.D. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So um, let the bass go
Nah, it's got to go a little lower than that, Dre, drop it!
Nah, it's gotta go even lower than that, you know why? (Why?)
You've been denied, although you've tried
So I've been a ving to make you fall like a tide
Suckers with static approach and get rolled and smoked like a joint
Phlegm ignites the flame, I mean I burn like a lighter
Roll with the hip-hop groove cause I'm a writer
The hero of great, take a stand and we'll see
Eat in chronological order starting with me
A rap introduction, the suckers distruction
Yeah, are all involved when I started conducting
The lyrics are the maximum, I stated for facts in them
Chumps never try to break knowing I'd wax them
Murder in the first degree
Occurs only when dealing with the D-O to the see
I'm like a whirlwind pyramid, and I'm letting you know
I get ill when I hear the bass go
Yeah, that's the sound and you know it's down
But you know why? (Why's that?)
Cause I've been around, and you've heard the sound
Of the D.O.C. and the new style that I've found
It's quite unorthodox, but still bass and
Enough to make you dance, so I picked up the pace and
Let it ride like a cyclist
And see it show in the end that I'm the mightiest
And I'm lyrically inclined to make you want to step to my time
The beat and the cut to this rhyme
Do a show, and I'm good to like a G-O
Never getting skeezed, I mean it's like an N-O
Happiness to me is like a positive cash flow
So I let your ear cold hear when the bass go
Drop that bass (Aight, bet)
I don't want to (stop), cause if I do you might lose it
I made this record for you to jam, so use it
Kill the treble, pump the bass and then
Send the suckers on the block into a tailspin
Roll by, booming like a nuke bomb
I know there's pressure on your ears, but stay calm
After you pass, though, you better turn it down some
Or else you're gonna put a dent into your eardrum
Success realize on the individual
I feel successful when receiving the residual
But as for you, you all should know
When I say "Let's get hype" I'm letting the bass go
Now that's the way it should be done
I know that's on the one, and that is fun
To see a sucker standing weary
And girlies on the tip standing near me
The bass was the topic so I dropped it
Added some dop lyrics and then I dropped it
On track 24 in a machine
To make you move on the hip-hop scene
Cued up Dre, and I knew that he would know
That on the one, I would let the bass go
Because a dope jam is what I gotta make
I make it rattle cause you love it when it vibrates
The D-O and to the see
Must cause pleasure when showing yo my abilities
To inject on the set mass enjoyment
This is to insure definite employment
When I hit town, yo you'll know
Crowds will roar, and you'll hear the bass go
Yeah, let the bass go
This is most definitely down with my homeboy DJ Speed, is that on track?
Word em up, peace
