Still #1!

Hippa To Da Hoppa.

Eazy-E wasn’t the only hologram at Rock The Bells in L.A. this weekend. On day 2, the late O’l Dirty Bastard was resurrected by the Wu, who even brought out his son, Young Dirty. Like father, like son.

Leading up to the release of his The Piecemaker 3: Return Of The 50 MCs on July 9, DJ Tony Touch is releasing never seen before clips he’s recorded over the last 20 years. Kicking things off is footage from 1994 at the Gavin Convention in New Orleans, where Busta and the late ODB kick a few raps, which of course later ended up as “Woo Hah” and “Damage”.

Omar’s back! Known for his role in The Wire, actor Michael Kenneth Williams has been tapped to play the role of the late Dirt McGirt in the upcoming biopic, Dirty White Boy. EW reports: The movie is based on the final years of ODB

Dirt McGirt’s presence was certainly felt in Austin. Last night, Shallah headlined RubyHornet and Sucker Free’s Digital Freshness showcase and bigged up his brother with “Shimmy Shimmy Ya”.

It’s back to the 36 Chambers. The late Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s first solo album will be re-released as a wallet box set featuring limited edition accessories on November 22. Also re-mastered, this reissue will feature an additional CD featuring remixes, instrumentals and unreleased music. More info here.
