Original Concept was an American 1980s hip-hop group from Long Island, New York, best known for their single "Can You Feel It".[1]

History

In the early 1980s, a group of young men at WBAU FM formed a group called the "Concept Crew". Their show "The Operating Room" was broadcast on Monday nights from Adelphi University on the same station which featured the Spectrum City DJs (Chuck D and Flavor Flav) who later went on to form Public Enemy. The members were Doctor Dré, T-Money, Rapper G, Easy G. By 1986, the group began calling themselves Original Concept and had released their first record, "Knowledge Me" in February of that year.[2] The B-side of "Knowledge Me" went on to become their first single, "Can You Feel It".[2] The single has since gone on to become one of the most sampled source records in hip-hop music.[1]

In 1988, the group was signed to Def Jam Records and late in that year they released their first and only album, Straight From the Basement of Kooley High![1] on Def Jam.[2] The album featured a cameo by Beastie Boys member, Mike D. on the track "She's Got a Moustache". The album featured samples from The Jackson 5, The Fat Boys, Run DMC, and P-Funk.
