Today, snitching aside, the last thing a hardcore rap crew will cop to is "digging in the crates." However, this was New York in the early 1990s, and no group captured that time and place better than D.I.T.C.; Wu-Tang was one-of-a-kind, Boot Camp Clik was too dark and grittily underground, too focused in scope. Although at one time all underground New York rappers, each artist would end up in very different places; for Showbiz and AG: canonization as respectable early 90s jazz-rap; for Buckwild: obscurity in the wider world but a renowned producer's status in hip-hop. In my mind, D.I.T.C. were the definitive New York rap crew, and they deserve a central role in its history.	./cache/stylusmagazine-com-426.html	./txt/stylusmagazine-com-426.txt
