Loc is later dropped from the label and loses the support from Big Smoke, following his [[End of the Line|death]] in his [[Big Smoke's Crack Palace|hideout]] in East Los Santos at the hands of Carl Johnson. Loc, whose album was poorly received, 'disappeared without a trace' according to [[Big Smilky]], who also states that many view him as the worst rapper in history. Loc then faded away and did not release another album.

==Trivia==
*[[Str8 From Tha Streetz]], the only album released by OG Loc, can be found in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] in [[Niko Bellic|Niko Bellic's]] safehouse in [[Bohan]] and in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]] in [[Luis Fernando Lopez|Luis Fernando Lopez']] safe house in [[Northwood]] and in the DJ area of [[Bahama Mama's]].
*The beta name of OG Loc was Jeffrey Martin, while his rap name was to be MC Strap.
*When Madd Dogg asks CJ on "how does an idiot like Loc make it in the rap game", CJ replies that "it's all showmanship and dance routines", referring to the early 90s trend of pop rap by [[:wp:MC Hammer|MC Hammer]], [[:wp:Vanilla Ice|Vanilla Ice]] and others, although Loc states on [[Entertaining America]] when asked to dance "I ain't down with that shit, it ain't gangsta!".
*OG Loc is also a mocking parody of [[:wp:Ja Rule|Ja Rule]], although Ja Rule was not famous until 1999, seven years after [[1992|the setting]] of GTA San Andreas. Both men are named "Jeffrey", portray themselves alike, and Ja Rule was also accused of stealing rhymes and other style notes from frequent collaborator [[:wp:DMX (rapper)|DMX]]. Rumours circulate that he was a parody of Ja Rule due to [[Rockstar Games|Rockstar Games']] attempts to have [[:wp:50 Cent|50 Cent]] voice [[Carl Johnson]], as 50 Cent was involved in a rivalry with Ja Rule at the time.
*When listening to some radio shows featuring OG Loc, his voice is much deeper and doesn't break. He most likely edited his high pitched voice for the radio to sound more appealing.
*Oddly, even though OG Loc is a member of Grove Street Families, he sports a pair of purple jeans, the color of their arch rivals the Ballas.
*OG Loc has his own clothing company named "Loc Down". A Loc Down tee can be found at [[Victim]].
