Ol Dirty Bastard: Great Rapper or Crazy MFer?

We all know, the late Dirt McGirt, Osiris and Big Baby Jesus was crazy, but how would you rate his skills on the mike?

ODB was in another world. What ODB did when he was on the mic was something insane. There's no word for it. It's not rapping, and it sure as hell isn't singing, but at times, it could be compared to either of those. Then, a lot of the time it's barely even intelligible. To say the least, Dirty's style was awkward, and at first, off-putting to many. ODB was just str8 insane, in a good way, if that is possible. biggrin

ODB was the potential heir to the throne of Flavor Flav.

I don't think ODB was THAT crazy. Certainly not as disturbed as DMX

Maybe he wasn't a real maniac (his reality show showed him to be an actual charmer), but his stage antics definitely gave him his name. Still a genius on the mic. Miss him! mushy

EVERYBODY misses ODB. That man was universally loved. Like I always say-ODB is like your crazy cousin that when you see him walking up to your house, you put the double locks on
