Past members |
The Diggin' in the Crates Crew, abbreviated as D.I.T.C., was a New York-based hip hop collective. Its name is from the art of finding records to sample for production. The members have achieved substantial and consistent recognition in underground rap circles, having often collaborated with underground artists and the most commercial of rappers. All of the members were from the Bronx, with the exception of Big L from Harlem, and O.C. from Brooklyn.
