Rock's Hardest Partiers: No. 9
- Posted by Spinner
With a nose-candy habit that led to multiple drug arrests and a lengthy prison stay, Russell Tyrone Jones (aka Ol' Dirty Bastard, Dirt McGirt, Big Baby Jesus, etc.) single-handedly put the "rap" in "rap sheet." The famously unbalanced Wu Tang court jester also made some sick tracks -- in both senses of the word -- but his music was overshadowed by his bizarre behavior, including a drunken tirade during Shawn Colvin's 1998 Grammy acceptance speech. ODB died of heart failure at a recording studio in 2004 from an OD of cocaine and painkillers.

I know #11 did not say jigaboo! It doesn't matter music or race.It's sad for anyone's life to be cut short because of drugs.

O.D.B. took a i.q. test and he scored well above average. Most of his lyrics were sick. But It's amazing how you all love the stones as I do.But did you all know where their type of r&r originate?

Actually, the story of his death is a lot more uncanny (or humorous...depending on who you're telling) than the story they came up with here. I'm surprised they got it wrong...it's pretty common knowledge. The OD came as a result of him putting drugs in a plastic bag and swallowing it with the intentions of concealing it long enough to use it again after it made its way through his digestive system. But, unfortunately the bag broke open while in his body and he died.

I find it humorous that people don't consider rap music, yet they swear by rock and roll, punk, scream-o, and every other form that was once debunked and declared "not music". ODB doesn't belong on the list, especially not before sid vicious, but music is music.
