O.G.C. [Originoo Gunn Clappaz] are a Hip Hop group consisting of Starang Wondah [Gunn Clappa One], Louieville Sluggah [Gunn Clappa Two] and Top Dog [Gunn Clappa Three]. The group is mostly known through their membership in the Boot Camp Clik, along with Black Moon, Smif-N-Wessun and Heltah Skeltah. The group debuted on Smif-N-Wessun's 1995 album Dah Shinin' on the tracks "Sound Bwoy Bureill" and "Cession At Da Doghillee". Later in '95, they teamed up with Heltah Skeltah to form The Fab 5, and released the hit single "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka" with "Blah" as the B-Side, both tracks featured music videos. In October 1996, they released their debut album Da Storm, which went on to sell over 200,000 in the U.S. Two videos were released from the album, "No Fear" and a dual video for "Hurricane Starang" and "Danjer" titled "Hurricane Danjer". The three released a group album with the BCC in 1997, then dropped their sophomore album The M-Pire Shrikez Back in 1999. The album received strong reviews, but sold little numbers, and the single "Bounce to the Ounce" wasn't able to make an impact. The trio was missing from the scene until 2002, when the Boot Camp returned with their second group album The Chosen Few. The three have now retired as a group, but still work with the Boot Camp Clik and will take part in their third group album The Last Stand in 2006.
