What guns and drugs couldn’t do, a heart attack apparently has.
This news makes the Big Baby Jesus cry.
35 years old?! Damn. And I’m not a big rap fan but I liked some of his stuff.
What Mehitabel said.
Never even lived to be a Dirty Middle-Aged Bastard . . .
Damn. I had his money.
(I wonder if the state of New York is gonna come back on his wife/domestic partner/baby mama/whatever now for all that welfare fraud?)
I’m commemorating ODB right now by listening to some of his work. The rhymes aren’t particularly clever but they’re mostly amusing and nobody had personality like ODB.
In an interesting contrast, CNN’s website lists him as ODB but CBC.ca calls him Ol’ Dirty Bastard in their headline. Guess we Canucks are more hardcore, eh?
I’ll smoke some of BC’s finest in his honor. Here’s to you, ODB! 
I’m fetus, and I approve of this commemoration.
Anyone who called himself Dirt McGirt deserves a fat one lit in his honour.
What a life, eh? (I have to wonder if there wasn’t a bit of the drugs involved in that heart attack.)
Nevertheless: Farewell Rusty, we hardly knew ye.
damn.
A genuine class act
I’m upset about this news. He was the Osiris of this shit.
In a related story, Octavia Jones, common law wife of the late rapper, has announced she is changing her name to Nu-Lee Rich Bitch.
And he was such the picture of health.
And I don’t think there’s a :rolleyes: big enough to follow that statement.
WU-TANG!!!
I have a huge filing cabinet stuffed with show-biz obits. I wouldn’t file him under “Jones,” as I wouldn’t file John Wayne under “Morrison.”
Do I put him in the "O"s, under “ODB,” or “Ol’,” or under “B,” as in “Bastard, Dirty Ol’?”
M for McGirt
Wu Tang killa bees on the swarm
Bolding mine.
Small hijack:
Why is it illegal to possess body armor? It seems like there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be able to pad yourself up if you want.
ODB RIP - I hope your dozens (dozens!) of kids can still make it to the food stamp office without you and your huge limousine.
It’s not illegal in most places, however, I imagine there’s been some restrictions placed on in places like L. A. or wherever it was that those guys held up the bank while wearing full body armor, and then casually walked away from the scene, while proceeding to shoot the crap out of the cops and everything else.
