Ol' Dirty Bastard simultaneously brought a measure of humor and a touch of the absurd to the Wu-Tang Clan. Often noted for his unusual microphone technique (critic Steve Huey writes of Jones' "outrageously profane, free-associative rhymes" delivered "in a distinctive half-rapped, half-sung style"[1]), Jones' stage name came from a 1980 kung fu film entitled Ol' Dirty & The Bastard, the relevance of which was articulated by Method Man's assertion that there was "no father" to Jones's style.

The cousins soon added six more friends and associates to the Clan, and released their debut album Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) in 1993. Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers is the Debut album of American East Coast hip hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, released November This is a summary of significant events in music in 1993. Events January 36 Chambers received enormous critical praise, and is now widely regarded as one of the best and most influential albums of any genre to be released in the 1990s, as well as one of the best hip hop albums of all time. [3]

While most of the group's members received individual praise from critics and fans, Jones became perhaps the best-known member of the group. Armed with a seemingly crazed, slurred, often off-beat, half-sung half-rapped delivery, bizarre lyrics and humorous antics that were unlike anything ever heard before in rap, he seemed to encapsulate and personify the raw, unadulterated and innovative style of the group. In Music, back beat (also backbeat) is a term applied both to a specific style of Rhythmic Accentuation with accent on even

ODB's solo career began in 1995, making him the third member of the Wu-Tang Clan to release a solo album, following Method Man's 1994 effort, Tical. ---- Clifford Smith (born April 1, 1971) better known by his Stage name Method Man, is an American hip hop artist, Tical is the highly acclaimed debut album by Wu-Tang Clan member and hip hop artist Method Man.

That same year, he was featured on the remix of Mariah Carey's "Fantasy". " Fantasy " is a song co-written and co-produced by American singer Mariah Carey and Dave Hall, and recorded for Carey's sixth album Daydream What might have seemed like an unlikely pairing spawned a major hit song. "Fantasy" was among the first popular pop, R&B, and hip hop collaborations.

Around this time, Jones gained notoriety when, as he was being profiled for an MTV biography, he took two of his thirteen children by limousine to a New York State welfare office to pick up his welfare check while his latest album was still in the top ten of the US charts. MTV ( Music Television) is an American Cable television network based in New York City. A limousine (or limo) is a longer than normal Luxury car.

In 1997, ODB appeared on the Wu-Tang Clan's second and most commercially successful album, Wu-Tang Forever. Wu-Tang Forever was the long-awaited follow-up to the Wu-Tang Clan 's first Album Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers. However, Jones appeared less often on the Clan's second album than on the debut; he contributed a solo track titled "Dog Shit" as well as hooks ("As High As Wu-Tang Get") and spoken introductions ("Triumph"), but other than these appearances and featuring prominently on the songs "Maria" and "Reunited," as well as delivering a very short verse on "Heaterz," he was absent.

In February 1998, Jones witnessed a car accident from the window of his Brooklyn recording studio. He and a friend ran to the accident scene and organized about a dozen onlookers who assisted in lifting the 1996 Ford Mustang—rescuing a 4-year-old girl from the wreckage.

A pseudonym is a fictitious alternative to a person's legal name (see Alias) [4]

The evening following the traffic accident, Jones rushed on-stage unexpectedly during Shawn Colvin's acceptance speech for "Song of the Year" at the Grammy Awards, and began complaining that he had recently purchased expensive clothes in anticipation of winning the "Best Rap Album" award that he lost to Puff Daddy. Shawn Colvin (born January 10, 1955) is a Grammy Award -winning American singer songwriter and Musician. The Song of the Year is one of the four most prestigious awards in the Grammy Awards ceremony, if not in all of the American music industry The 40th Grammy Awards were held on February 25, 1998.

We teach the children. Puffy is good, but Wu-Tang is the best. I want you all to know that this is ODB, and I love you all. Peace!. " His bizarre on-stage antics were widely reported in the mainstream media.

In April 1998, he announced his new stage name, Big Baby Jesus (the first of many alternate stage names; see the list below), but was never able to give a coherent explanation for the very brief switch.

In 1999, he found time to release Nigga Please between jail sentences, which received much success and was even more bizarrely warped than his debut. Nigga Please is the second album by American hip hop artist and member of the Wu-Tang Clan Ol' Dirty Bastard, released on September 14 This release included the single "Got Your Money" which became extremely successful in the US and elsewhere; it was produced by The Neptunes, and its success would serve as one of the production group's main stepping stones to the super-stardom they would later achieve. The Neptunes (or "Neptoons" is the name for the record production duo consisting of As well as the Neptunes, the single also put singer Kelis, who sang the chorus, on the map; she went on to have a successful solo career.

Insane Clown Posse is an American hip hop duo from Delray Detroit.

In 2001, with Jones again in jail for crack cocaine possession, his record company Elektra Records made the decision to release a greatest hits album (despite there being only two albums in ODB's back catalog) in order to both end their contract with the unreliable, troubled artist as well as make some money off the publicity generated by his legal troubles. Elektra Records is a now-dormant American Record label owned by Warner Music Group (WMG and from 2004 on operating under WMG's Atlantic Records After the contract with Elektra was terminated, the label D-3 records released the album "The Trials and Tribulations of Russell Jones" in 2002, comprised of tracks put together without Jones's input, using the vocals he had recorded prior to his capture by authorities. The label recruited many guests including several Wu-Tang Clan affiliates, No Limit Records artist C-Murder, and the Insane Clown Posse.

However, the album was critically panned and sales were poor.

The year 2003 brought a change in the life of Ol' Dirty Bastard however.
