pour some out for dead homiez.

We both made topics

Pain.

So, it looks like a heart attack, then?

Think of the children!!!

Wu-Tang is for the children, O.D.B. makes the children. Now, (at least) thirteen are without a dad.

Big Baby Jesus is no more. I wonder if he'll get to meet is namesake upstairs...


Respect and mad props to the bastard.

I had wonder if his Roc-A-Fella album will come out posthumously? Proabably a dumb question considering that putting out posthumous records is a staple of the hip hop industry (see Tupac havis more albums released since his death than while he was living).

Death in three:

1. Yasser Arafat, born in Egypt.
2. Russell Jones, a/k/a Ol' Dirty Bastard; also, performed as Osirus [sic], a name borrowed from a deity of Ancient Egypt.
3. (if you have any Egyptian friends, be sure to tell them you love them, and wish them well; it may be your last chance)

what a beautiful trainwreck this guy was

Part of ODB's legacy may be imperiled. And let me be the first to say: if it turns out his raucousness did not extend as far as had been reported previous, I will be crushed.

But, I just know he was baby-daddy to a baker's dozen. At least that.
