This is the story of Old Dirty Bastard, aka Ason Unique, the magnetic secret weapon of the Wu-Tang Clan and hip hop hall of famer.
Photographer Khalik Allah takes us on a journey into ODB’s world, exploring the beliefs, background and experiences that shaped his unforgettable music.
ODB was a radical, who lived a life of unlikely highs and heart wrenching lows. We go in search of this deeper, more complicated side to a man the mainstream media presented as a joke.
ODB was known as a larger-than-life and comic rapper. Ol’ Dirty’s life was so much more. He spoke truth to power and paid a cost.
