Oasis is the collaborative studio album by American rappers and Diggin' in the Crates Crew members O.C. and A.G. It was released on November 24, 2009, through D.I.T.C. Records/Nature Sounds, after several pushbacks dating as far back as the spring of 2008. The album was first premiered in its entirety on the duo's Myspace page a week before the official release.

Recording sessions took place at Soul Estates in The Bronx, at Unique Studios in Norfolk, and In Ya Ear Studios in Long Island City. Production was handled by Born Lords (E-Blaze and Showbiz), Lord Finesse, Davel "Bo" McKenzie, KC and Statik Selektah, with D.I.T.C. and Devin Horwitz serving as executive producers. It features contributions from a female singer named Mirror Image, who sings the choruses on songs "Get Away" and "Pain", and DJ Premier's cuts on the song "Two For The Money".
