Video: Dante Ross Honors ODB at Brooklyn Zoo Pt. 3
In honor of the five-year anniversary of Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s passing today (November 13), XXLMag.com took ODB’s former A&R and longtime friend Dante Ross on a field trip to the Brooklyn Zoo, located in Prospect Park, to hear his craziest memories of the beloved Wu-Tang rapper.
In the final clip, Dante talks about ODB’s genius idea to use his welfare card on the cover of his debut album.

those 4 drake tracks, minus the one with birdman, because birdman fucking sucks, are pretty damn good. i still think j. cole > drake (slightly) when it comes to hip-hop.

It’s been a few good slam dunk competitions in A.V (after vince) but the problem is excecution. Them niggas never seem to get that good dunk right on the first try, which makes it wack cause you know what there about to do.
When vince carter did his very first dunk in the dunk contest I KNEW IT WAS OVER, it felt like I was there, nigga did a opposite windmill 360 tomahawk dunk to start the contest off.
But it’s been a few good dunk competitions afterwards

November 13th, 2009 at 10:51 am
vince from the raptors fucked the game up, real talk….but it’s weird, b/c i think lebron jumps higher than that nigga, and he don’t even look like he really tryin to jump.
i seen this nigga lebron double pump THEN duck so he wouldn’t hit his head on the rim….what kinda shit is that?!

yo, i’ll never forget when he did that dunk where he hung on the rim with half his arm through the net.
the commentators were speechless for like a good 3 or 4 seconds. Like they literally couldn’t understand what they just saw.

I like the D-12 dunk where he threw the oop off the back of the backboard to himself and dunked it. His excecution in that dunk contest made it interesting, unlike midget mac nate robinson needed 58 mulligans just to make one dunk.
And they still gave him the W. I was pissed

***they play that Lady Gaga collabo alot, but DC radio is hardly regional- more like top 40, or, as a DJ from WPGC put it, “our job is to play your favorite songs, not break artists”—true story, SMH….

Cosign Shot Clock… That dunk he did with the inside of his elbow, was the sickest contest dunk ever.FACT..also the dunk he did from behind the basket out of bounds.. SMH

***the fact that Dwight let himself be used as a prop (none), gave me a whole new level of respect for that nigga…that was an example of sportsmanship at its finest….when ‘Bron walked off the court in a huff like an angry 9 yr old child, however….

She my Josephine Baker, may need morphine the deeper that I take her
So many LOL worthy lines in that one but The-Dream kills that hook & the beat is on some bonfire on a foreign beach type shit.
