| | Definitive Ol' Dirty Bastard Story CD Ol' Dirty Bastard Discography of CDs
By 2005, the number of Ol' Dirty Bastard compilations almost outnumbered his official studio releases, building the already larger-than-life myth of the late hip-hop legend. THE DEFINITIVE OL' DIRTY BASTARD STORY is comprehensive enough to put the kibosh on further milking of the former Wu-Tanger's name. A double-disc set (the second of which is a DVD containing videos and an interview), THE DEFINITIVE brings together the brightest moments from ODB's two solo releases (RETURN TO THE 36 CHAMBERS: THE DIRTY STORY and NIGGA PLEASE), and adds single versions, B-sides, Pras's "Ghetto Supastar" (with a prominent ODB cameo), and a remix of the Mariah Carey/ODB duet "Fantasy."
ODB's flair for drama, drugs, and endless legal complications sometimes overshadowed his talents as a rapper, which is a shame. At his sharpest, he unfurled a surreal style blending comedy, street-thug menace, verbal playfulness, and vocal gymnastics in an utterly imaginative way. Hip-hop heads will want to own the individual albums, but THE DEFINITIVE's mix of essential album tracks, bonus features, and a well annotated booklet full of photos and shout-outs from his Wu-Tang brethren offers a superb overview of this wild, sui generis rapper.
Personnel: Ol' Dirty Bastard (rap vocals).
Additional personnel: Kelis, Mariah Carey (vocals); Lil' Mo, Prakazrel "Pras" Michel (rap vocals); Mya.
Spin (p.98) - "The Ol' Dirty signature is that tremble in his flow - a seizure vibrato that he deploys like a trumpeter and that sounds as if he's about to explode..." - Grade: B+ Definitive Ol' Dirty Bastard Story Music Definitive Ol' Dirty Bastard Story Songs Definitive Ol' Dirty Bastard Story Review
