Man Overboard is a 1999 album by Buck 65. Originally released on the anticon. label in 1999, this album broke Buck 65 to an international audience. When re-released on Warner in 2002 it had a track omitted because of a Metallica sample that was used as a part of the music.

[edit] History

Man Overboard, originally released on the anticon. label, was a significant turning point in his career. The record, and the entire anticon. collective (of which Sixtoo was also a part), were considered hallmarks of a new avant-garde movement in underground hip hop. It was at this time that Buck met Cincinnati DJ Mr. Dibbs who inducted him into the 1200 Hobos, a loosely-knit hip-hop collective named for their proficiency and skill in manipulating the Technics 1200 turntable.
