Description: Return's title and various lyrics acknowledge Wu-Tang's self-built mythology, but Ol' Dirty Bastard's solo debut, like the man himself, runs on its own idiosyncratic power. Rapping forcefully and on point--mumbling, singing, allowing weird wordless sounds to escape his throat in an assertion of his right to make random noise--ODB slips from mode to mode like Marvin Gaye juxtaposing the gruff and the smooth in the same song. The production, mostly by the RZA, sets the man down in the middle of funky, shape-shifting tracks to scream for blood, shout out to the Temptations and "you other grooops!" and threaten "any MC in any 52 states." "I love that guy," ODB secret identity Russell Jones declares of his alter ego at the outset; after a listen to this disc, it's likely at least part of you will, too. --Rickey Wright

CLassic solo debut with classics like shimmy shimmy ya / baby c'mon brooklyn zoo / hippa to da hoppa / raw hide /cutten headz classic . Rip Ol'Dirty Bastard.

A Classic

This is one of the best rap albums of all time. Death to all you haters of ODB. And death to you hip hop "elitests" who say that people who consider this album one of the best say that only because ODB is dead. You're just as bad as the ODB haters. All the songs on here are excellent. They might not be considered skillful, whatever that means, but they're enjoyable, funny, raw, and witty. When I first heard these songs, like Shimmy Shimmy Ya, Baby C'mon, and Brooklyn Zoo, I thought ODB was rhyming off beat. After hearing them all many times, I have come to realize there actually is a complex rhyming scheme to them. It sounds kind of sloppy, but there really was thought put into it. Just listen to them a lot. I think you will see if you already haven't. Brooklyn Zoo is one of those songs that gets you really pumped up. Ol' Dirty is the most original rapper in my opinion. He can entertain so well that I bet a lot of his fans aren't really sure why he's so entertaining. Maybe because he goes all out. One of the strangest and best songs on here is Dirty Dancin' featuring Method Man. It made me feel like I was in some kind of evil carnival where madness is the norm! The songs on here range from hilarious to raw and relentless. I don't see how this album can't entertain anyone, unless you really hate hip hop with a passion. Get this album! It's so varied that you won't get bored of it. It's one of my favorites.

P.S. I only have one thing to say to that reviewer "Helen" who reviewed this cd on Jan. 8. Look at her reviews. She listens to Nelly and gave his cd 5 stars. LOL! Enough said.

It's a classic

ODB is better than any of these West Coast wack zombies promoting slander in the airtime; Helen from Texas is a loser who bends over for her unemployed Daddy!



Cop this album, yo!
