I am still sick, but I had to post this.
Rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard Dies. Russell Jones, ODB, Big Baby Jesus, Osirus, Dirt McGirt... however you knew him, please, on this day, go buy a 40 or maybe even a rock of crack and pour one out. Play some classic OBD in tribute to the loveable crazy junkie and remember him perhaps as the lyrical genius who penned the phrase "Me and Mariah go back like babies and pacifiers" or "God made Dirt and Dirt bust yo' ass." Most of you think that Dave Chappelle was the first one to admire/make fun of/dress like Rick James. But you're wrong suckas. Dirty paid homage to one the of world's most beloved coke heads with his 2000 album Nigga, Please in which he even remade one of Rick James' songs "Coldblooded" and has perhaps one of the sweetest album covers ever:

I am now going to listen to some ODB to commemorate and you, my friend, should do the same.
