7. you know what, too....
.... he had some really cool music in him, of a sound and style that you would NEVER heard anywhere but on an ODB record. (Or Wu Tang record with ODB on it)

I bet he had a lot more left to offer, too... This new album he was almost finished with, they will release and I bet it will be really cool...

His music is certainly not for everybody.... but it was an odd, yet cachy style that I would consider "feel good" music in a way, for the way it'd make me feel when I drove around and listened to it..

Damn that sucks ass....

3. No -
He just recently got out. He was in the recording studio (I think) and just collapsed and died. Chest pains.

6. I thought he was Big Baby Jesus or something
When did he go back to being ODB?

Regardless, he was bizarre, and I mean that in the best possible way. :D ;)

RIP BBJ/ODB/Whoever. :(

8. He was Big Baby Jesus...
... was also Dirt McGirt...

I don't know what he currently called himself..it changed often... doesn't matter, he was ALWAYS the ODB as far as I was concerned.
