The D.O.C released his first solo album (produced by Dr. Dre) in 1989 called ' No One Can Do It Better '. This album is widely heralded as a classic. He was involved in a near-fatal car crash later that year. The crash left him with a crushed larynx which severely altered his vocal timbre. He has since released albums 'Helter Skelter' and 'Deuce'. He has continued to be a major influence on rap music by ghostwriting on Dr. Dre's projects, including classic albums such as 'The Chronic' and 'Doggystyle'.
After years of inactivity, The D.O.C. made his return to the music industry on the rapcore supergroup Codefendants' song Fast Ones.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Intro: The D.O.C. talking)
It's Judgement Day
"you know what I'm sayin, if any one got sick"
"30 day 61
(Verse 1: Six Two)
Dead woods is cruising for bruisings
Labelled me sick, Six Two is livin' psychopathic fit
Some people think I'm loony and the range "uh ha"
Because I come in these murders at the point blank range (Gun Shot)
Bowdown, I'm aimin' at your face
Murder one did, and close casket case
Outlast war, now leave me alone
This hollow points'll give you piss on and fuck up your arm
Fool, I'll drops the bomb
Casualties packed up and stacks like you numb
My G lock don't see them on the stock
Four dead wood, left for dead in the donut shop
It's time to tear the roof off this mothafucker
And got no love for these suckers and bad busters......
(Chorus: The D.O.C.)
In Judgment Day
Don't you get caught slippin' without your AK
(Break: Six Two)
I touched down at the L.A. X
Okey, bitch don't ever mix, Two Face and Dr. Dre
(Dr. Dre)
Welcome to Califor-nia, my nigga
The home of palm trees and sticky green killers
(Verse 2: The D.O.C.)
I hit the city G-ed up "for real"
And let's get this understood, I'm good for two or three meals
Deeply thinkin' while I'm rollin, smokin' and drinkin'
The D.O.C. you know it ain't easy been me
That been through the whole nine and still tickin'
This is genocide on mine, let's be realistic
If he don't get what he supposed, this subject to go ballistic
Two Face'll leave the mothafucker twisted
Watch your mouth, y'all niggaz don't even know me but you owe me
Don't be like these foes, you'll catch a dawn kal homey
That's all I can say my nigga, case's closed
Now let's go and get this paper my nigga and chase hoes.......
(Chorus: The D.O.C.)
In Judgment Day
Don't you get caught slippin' without your AK
Don't you get caught slippin' without your AK
(Verse 3: The D.O.C.)
I touched down from outta no where, ready to catch a case
The Gorilla goes bannas with a solid black bandana on his face
His tattoo says ain't one cheat
Two Face the bitch killer, all eyes on me
I do my dirt in the broad day, with the AK
Till the all deceased, me hear R.I.P's
See my mentality is totally fucked up
I'ma time bomb tickin' ready to self destruct
I do this till I'm satisfied, y'all ain't heard
I goes bows on bitches, they said cause the hood in a eard
Havin' suicidal thoughts in my room
Don't hestitate to put the .44 to your dome
Damn (Gun Shot)...
(Outro: The D.O.C. talking)
Don't you get caught slippin' without your AK
Senicerely your Mr. Two Face
Don't you get caught slippin' without your AK
Senicerely your Mr. Two Face
The D.O.C.'s "Judgement Day" is a hardcore gangsta rap song that depicts a world of mayhem and lawlessness where chaos reigns supreme. The song begins with a sample of police sirens blaring all over the track, adding to the impending sense of doom and danger. Six Two's lyrics describe a world of total choas, mass confusion, and psychopathic behavior where he's labeled as sick because of his murderous tendencies. The verse mentions how he aims at people's faces and shoots them point-blank, leaving them dead and in a close casket case. The chorus warns listeners not to get caught slipping without their AK on Judgement Day, where every man is for himself and survival of the fittest is the only law that applies. The verse that follows talks about the realities of life in gang-ridden Los Angeles, where the DOC's from. He touches down at L.A. X and is deep in thought while smoking and drinking. He says he's been through the whole nine and still ticking, meaning he's been through the worst and still alive. Two Face (another character in the song) is a killer who does his dirt in broad daylight with an AK on his side. He says he's ready to self-destruct and doesn't hesitate to kill anyone who crosses him. He sends a final warning to his enemies to be careful and not to get caught slipping without their AK.
The song is a grim depiction of life on the streets of Los Angeles, full of violence, drugs, and lawlessness. It's a brutal commentary on how the American Dream has been lost for many young blacks who are caught up in the gang culture. The D.O.C.'s message is clear; be careful in a world where everyone is out for themselves, and the only way to survive is by being armed and dangerous.
