Str8 From Tha Streetz

Str8 From Tha Streetz is the debut album of OG Loc in both the 3D Universe and HD Universe of the Grand Theft Auto series.

Description

3D Universe

The album was released by OG Loc in 1992, and was immediately poorly received, contributing to his downfall after being sued by Blastin' Fools Records. It is the only album released by OG Loc during his short career in the music business. The album was recorded and published shortly after his release from prison.

It includes the songs "Hard in the Yard", "4 to a Cell", "Iz U Packin?", "Loc is the Name", "Don't U Know I'm Loc, Oh Man?", and the demo track "It's Loc Baby".

According to Big Smilky, a blogger and owner of the westcoastraplegends.com website (as part of the promotional material for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas), the album is considered lost media by 2004, with only a rare, small segment of his demo track being preserved on the blog.

HD Universe

The album was released by OG Loc in 1992, which received critical acclaim from the public, contributing to his successful career from the 1990s to the present day. It is the first album released by OG Loc during his career, followed by "OriGinal" and collab tours with gangsta rap group Corner Killahz across the United States of America.

Str8 From Tha Streetz CDs can be found in multiple HD Universe games as Easter eggs, including Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.

Trivia

• In The Definitive Edition of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the HD Universe version of this album can be found in Vinyl Countdown in North Point Mall. This leads to an anachronism because GTA Vice City is set in 1986, while OG Loc's career began (and also ended) during the events of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (set in 1992).
