2M3 Bugnon: MR. Iroc(Aka Roca Dolla)

Mr. Iroc is my favorite rapper/producer. He's from Phoenix(Arizona).

When he was at highschool, he was interested in rap and he began rapping pretty young. Mr.Iroc set up a studio in his room. After a short time, he moves his studio in a building and called his studio: "Iroc Records".

Mr. Iroc formed the group "The Product Click" with his friends Big Dame, E-Dog, Swim Tha Hardcore & The Music Doctor. Together they will record the first Mr. Iroc's solo album called "Finally On Tha Map".Before released the album, he released(only on tape) the single "Memories" dedicated to a dead friend.

The Album was released in 1995/1996 on Iroc Records and took the first place of the arizona charts without radio playing. This album is 100% Gfunk with dark track(like One 4 the money,Str8 Flowin) sad ones(like Memories, I Wish They Come Back) and more festive(or funky) ones(like Already Knowin,Tha Product). It contains wonderful chorus singing by men and women, the talkbox is used on the tracks "I Wish they Come Back" and "Humpen" and my favorite track of all the time is on this album: "Already Knowin" that is a ode to Gfunk with his beautiful chorus by Deon and his verses by Mr. Iroc,Big Dame & Swin Tha Hardcore. Mr. Iroc produces all the tracks.
Finally On Tha Map is one of the rarest and most wanted g-funk album. The only chance to get one is that a collector put it in auction on Ebay. 4 copy of this albums has been sold this year on Ebay.(respectively for 75$, 124$, 52$) and I won the last one for "only" 37$.

Then Mr. Iroc had one son and one daughter.
He produced then for Bookie's album "Stressin".

In 2001, he released his second album "The Release"

The Product Click is on this album too. I already download this album and it's very good but if I got the possibility to buy it next year on Ebay, I will do it. The Release is available on all the amazon(.com, .fr, .de, .co.uk,etc) but it's really too expensive.

In 2008, after changed his name to Roca Dolla, he released a double album "Roca Is A Classic" on 5 Fifth Coast Records

This album sounds no more Gfunk but its one of the best of 2008 for me. Some veterans are on the album like Bookie, AZ Mike Mill or Big Dame and a lot of new and unknow rapper from Arizona. This album minimum cost is 35-40$ used.

Now Roca Dolla produces news Arizona artists like Killy Kill and directed a lot of video clip
