I isolated the three O.C. demos & the alternate version of "It Ain't Hard To Tell". I'm pretty sure that I've heard the Nas track before, but these O.C. demos are new to my ears. They're Buckwild-produced outtakes from the "Word...Life" album sessions.

O.C. - Non-Believers

"Outsiders" is definitely my favorite. Buckwild was such a monster in the mid-90s.

And here is the alternate version of "It Ain't Hard To Tell". If someone has the unedited track, please post it.

Thanks for the o.c demos

Great job. Whoever is holding on to any and all of OC's original tapes should wake up and stop withholding, no joke

Word, props.

EXACTLY!!!!!

Thanks, Roy...

dope, thanks!

Wow... great quality for demos, too. Thanks.

Off of quick listens, "Outsiders" sounds like it will be my fav, too, but they're all ill.

We should just start labeling those Aint Hard To Tell demos as version 1, version 2, version 3, and so on.

thanks!

Thanks for these. I'd be willing to drop some change on the rest of the OC demos. Hopefully the surface soon, because these were really nice.

i know OC manager im a give him a holla and see what he may have
