Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a special guest at Groove Jones studio – none other than the legendary D.O.C.! 🔥
For all you N.W.A., Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg fans out there, his name is undoubtedly familiar. The D.O.C., known for his platinum-selling album `No One Can Do It Better,` was not only a key figure in the music industry but also a co-founder of Death Row Records alongside Dre and Suge Knight.
Meeting him today was an incredible honor, and we even got him to leave his mark on our wall of fame!
