Classics of the Week #12: Ol‘ Dirty Bastard Special

Gestern jährte sich zum zehnten Mal der Todestag einer wahren Raplegende. Wu-Tang Clans wohl (im positiven Sinne) verrücktestes Member, Ol‘ Dirty Bastard, wurde 2004 eine Mixtur aus Kokain und Tramadol zum Verhängnis.  Zwei Tage vor seinem 36. Geburtstag verabschiedete sich Russell Tyrone Jones von den Lebenden und hinterließ eine Ehefrau und insgesamt (ja, echt) dreizehn Kinder. Neben zahlreichen unglaublichen Aktionen abseits der Bühne blieb von ODB besonderes eines in Erinnerung:  Unmengen an unglaublich guter Rapmusik, bei der man leicht den Überblick verlieren kann. Um etwas Abhilfe zu schaffen, liefern wir euch hier zehn Tracks, die beweisen sollten, warum man diesen Kerl einfach lieben muss(te). Dann bleibt nur noch eines zu sagen: R.I.P. Ol‘ Dirty Bastard. Big Baby Jesus. Joe Bannanas. Cyrus. Unique Ason. Dirt Dog. Osirus. Und natürlich Dirt McGirt.
