Wu Tang Clan rapper Ol’ Dirty B@stard passed away on November 13, 2004 at the age of 35. The official cause of death was a drug overdose, caused by a mixture of cocaine and the prescription drug Tramadol.
In a new interview with VladTV, Dirty’s 26-year old son ODB Jr., says his father ingested the drugs, while making him watch on that fateful night.
“The most memorable moment was the last time I was with him ’cause I gathered all that energy. A lot of the Clan members was around. It was like the fire and the phoenix was in the ashes. And it was leaving his body,” says ODB Jr. “We was kinda hanging out. He was smoking a lot of drugs. The last time he was here he got as high as he could ever get. And he told me to sit there and watch him. Eye to eye … we did that. Then that was it.”
