Wu-Tang was supposed to play a "one-time" reuinion show at The Meadowlands last night...I haven't heard anything about it today.

After seeing him pick up food stamps in a limo I am sure the world is now a better place.

Good riddance.

You couldn't stop us, long as I got my glock, ******** the coppers
Hangin on the block, slangin rocks and makin profits

Tonight'll be the night that's what we figurin
Hustlin in the rain felt no pain cause we drinkin
Playin them hoes like manure
First let my ********** ******** and then I ******** that's how we do it (ha ha!)
It's two ************ comin up out the hood
livin life just as good as we could
But since a bitch can't be trusted
Hoes snitched to the po-lice, now my **********'s busted
The cops whoopin on my ********** in jail
tryin to get a mother********er to tell
And couldn't nobody diss my **********
Damn, I miss my **********
Pour out a little liquor!

He may have died as Dirt McGirt, but he will always be Big Baby Jesus to me. I'll myss you Dirty.

You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass

Why do I feel like this is a prank intented to generate publicity? Maybe because the only official statements I've seen are from ODB's mother and Damon Dash?

Cynical, I know, but this is the guy who changed his name to Jesus...

Then again, if Cheney's ticker gives out over the next day or two, we'll have the Arafat / ODB / other ODB "guys who should have died years ago" triple.

That was a great publicity stunt. Food stamps to buy caviar for his limo. A classic.

12(?) kids, stints in jail for drugs & shooting at the NYPD. I'd say he was lucky to be so "talented" (AHEM!) or he'd just be some dead ex-con.

Why didn't god take Puffy instead? Damn you, god! Damn you!!!!

The food stamp / limo stuff was classic.

[fatboy slim-fast]

Wow, I just found out about this right now.

He already signed a pact with the devil yrs. ago. How else can such an untalented pantload continue to thrive?

Puffy is the Rasputin of Hip Hop. Well, Rasputin without the trademark flow, originality or street cred.

We'll have to agree to disagree about that one, my friend. Or you can listen to Enter the 36 Chambers and be enlightened. ;)

I'm waiting for some really poignant "Hey, Dirt-ay, Baby we got ya mon-ay" sign held up by an adoring fan outside MTV's TRL studio tomorrow.

I can't say I will miss him personally, but he did make me laugh. There are too many hip hop stars taking themselves too seriously (Idiot Ron Artest aside); he was a welcome pause from that trend, intentionally so or not.

Feel free to replace "coffin" with "autopsy results", if desired.

Baby, I got no problem with you reviving me
But I got a little problem with you not reviving me

[jamison]

Nice work by both of you. As soon as they release the cause, we can re-convene on the full single version.

This all reminds me of the song I wrote when Mr. Rogers died.

"It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
to move in to a box of wood.
Won't you be my,
Won't you be
my coroner?"



Ah, good times. Good times.

[minorthreat]

Nonsense. Big Baby Jesus will rise on the third day.
