Da Storm is the debut album from Hip Hop trio O.G.C. (Originoo Gunn Clappaz), released in October 1996 through Duck Down Records. O.G.C. members Starang Wondah, Louieville Sluggah and Top Dog gained fame as members of the Hip Hop collective Boot Camp Clik, debuting with Heltah Skeltah as "The Fab 5" in 1995. The two groups split up to release separate debuts in 1996, with Da Storm coming as the last Boot Camp Clik debuts, after Black Moon's Enta Da Stage, Smif-N-Wessun's Dah Shinin', and Heltah Skeltah's Nocturnal. Out of these four Boot Camp albums, Da Storm sold the least, reaching just over 200,000 copies in the United States.
The album featured two singles; the first was "No Fear", which featured "Da Storm" as a B-Side; the second was "Hurricane Starang", which featured "Gunn Clapp" and "Danjer" as B-Sides. The lead single "No Fear" peaked at #13 on Billboard magazine's Hot Rap Singles chart. Videos were shot for three tracks, "No Fear", and a split video for "Hurricane Starang" and "Danjer", titled "Hurricane Danjer". The video for "No Fear" caused a small dispute between Starang Wondah and The Notorious B.I.G. as the video contained a Biggie look-alike when Starang said the line: "I scare, petty MCs who claim they got gats/frontin wit hoes in videos with pimp hats/but the fact, still remains/that you're just a stain on the bottom of my boots while I'm still Starang". Starang was attacked by Biggie's henchmen at D&D Studios, and later mentions the attack on Heltah Skeltah's 1998 hit "I Ain't Havin That". "No Fear" was also interpolated by Beyonce Knowles on her 2003 hit "Baby Boy".

Inputs
Input/output panel of an RCA Dimensia high-end television monitor/TV set of the 1980s
Composite monitors often have RCA jacks or BNC connectors for video input. Older (1970s) used UHF connectors. rca camcorder batteries
Composite and S-Video are used in PAL and NTSC regions. aa nimh battery charger
Composite monitors can be very high quality, with professional broadcast reference displays costing $10k-$15k (USD) as of the year 2000. canon nb 2l battery
Note that all composite monitors imply the use of a CRT for display, and for color signals anyway, the composite signal must be "decoded" into its three components of red, green and blue to be fed to each gun of the CRT. A critical factor in the quality of this display is the type of "encoding" that is used in the TV camera to combine the signal together and the type of "decoding" that is used in the TV set to separate the signals back to RGB for display.
Comb filters are frequently used to improve the quality of a composite monitor, and devices using the Faroudja decoders are frequently considered the pinnacle of composite displays.
Early innovations of this technology
Originally, these monitors were used for commercial studios. Composite video first saw home use for dubbing tapes on VCRs. Also, one of the first stand-alone composite monitors for home use were on home computers. Notably, IBM PC compatibles, Apple II, Commodore VIC 20/64/128, Atari and other home computers of the 1980s had some composite monitors bundled with the systems; and some sold separately bearing the company nametags for the aforementioned computers. During that time period, home game consoles chose to stick with channel 3/4 outputs since many people had color televisions without composite video support. However, in 1985, the NES was released and was the first game console to feature direct composite outputs. As of today, some people still use stand-alone composite monitors with modern game consoles even with the advent of televisions with a tuner and composite inputs combined.
Problems to overcome
Presently, AV devices with advanced technology don't have Channel 3/4 outputs (e.g. DVD players, video game consoles, etc.). One major exception to this is a TiVo DVR. People often use RF modulators to overcome the problem of a TV set not having composite or S-Video inputs. Another method used by some game systems is a built-in RF converter, which eliminates the bulkiness of an RF modulator.
Sometimes, stand-alone composite monitors cannot be used with older-type game systems (e.g. Atari 2600, NES 2, etc.) that have only channel 3/4 outputs for conventional TVs, without modifying the systems themselves. A VCR can often be used to overcome that problem, since most VCRs have TV tuners built in.
These problems could explain why most composite monitors marketed to consumers also have TV-tuner capability. Also, some people have even used more modern computer systems with composite monitors since some people have laptops with S-video out ports which were extended for composite out support; meaning that some composite monitors were recycled for usage with computers. Also, some people treat their laptops as game consoles this way.
Commercial use of composite monitors
Often, Television studios will use stand-alone composite video monitors. These are usually high-end professional broadcast monitors that are used to view the output of Professional video cameras, VTRs, Character generator, telecines and DDRs. They can also be used when new Video devices are being tested. Most commercial composite monitors have no audio, as the audio system would feed an audio board and/or the speaker system.
Stand-alone composite monitors are commonly used for video surveillance.
Many fast food restaurants use composite monitors to display any pending orders for the staff to make.
The monitors used in video surveillance often operate at the same frequencies as composite monitors but are not true composite monitors, as they use black and white graphics so the manufacture cost for the item will go down. Stand-alone composite monitors that are marketed as surveillance monitors are occasionally marketed for home use.

Examples of non-composites
Examples of non-composite video include
RGB video (3 signals - Red, Green and Blue - on three wires typically from a computer)
Component Video (3 signals - such as YUV or Y, B-Y, R-Y) that are used with professional video gear such as a Betacam VTR and some DVD players)
S-Video (2 signals - which have all of the brightness information on one cable and all of the color information on another; however, almost all monitors with S-Video inputs also feature composite inputs)
Digital video (many different flavors)
Note: some composite monitors employ usage of these standards.
