C-Clain performs live at Roc-D-Mic Fridays at Club Yakum in Houston, Texas, on January 2, 2015. Preserved in the DBTV archive, the footage captures C-Clain during the Club Yakum chapter of the recurring Houston independent hip-hop showcase.
The 12:13 performance documents a complete three-song set. C-Clain opens with “Killem Often” at 0:00, followed by “Groupies” at approximately 5:00 and “Fall In Line” at approximately 10:00.
The surviving recording preserves C-Clain’s live performance on the Roc-D-Mic stage and provides a direct record of his participation in Houston’s independent performance circuit during this period.
Hosted by Wickett Crickett, Roc-D-Mic provided independent artists with a recurring platform to perform live in Houston. During the Club Yakum period, Dammit Boy Productions became increasingly involved with the events, with Tre Dizzle working Roc-D-Mic as a DJ in addition to participating as an artist.
C-Clain’s appearance is part of the surviving group of DBTV recordings documenting performers who appeared on the Roc-D-Mic stage during the Club Yakum era.
This performance was filmed January 2, 2015 and originally published January 5, 2015. It places C-Clain alongside Boleggz, Mr 1000, Jus Kno Mac and other artists documented by DBTV during the January 2 Roc-D-Mic session at Club Yakum.
The footage is especially useful within the larger DBP archive because it establishes a dated record of C-Clain performing in Houston years before his later documented work connected to Mr 1000 and Littified.
Preserved through the DBTV archive, this performance documents C-Clain, Wickett Crickett’s Roc-D-Mic platform, Club Yakum, and Dammit Boy Productions during an active period in Houston’s independent hip-hop scene.
Together with the other surviving Roc-D-Mic Fridays recordings, the footage contributes to a larger historical record of the artists, songs, venues, performances, and relationships connected to Dammit Boy Productions and Houston independent hip-hop during the mid-2010s.
