Yeah, definitely the most entertaining member of the Wu Tang. That random chaos is sorely missed. Really pissed off that some hip-hop heads thought that he was just a joker for white kids to laugh at, I'm always laughing with him, there's a certain lust for life in amongst the intoxication and demented lyrics. Yeah, sadly missed indeed. His version of "Don't go Breaking my Heart" is still one of the most hilarious things I've ever heard.
Anyone know what killed him - I seem to remember he was just reported dead, but never any cause of death. I imagine it was probably too much all the time that did it, but he was only like 36 or something.
Dead rappers never seem to get quite the same level of props as dead rock stars (apart from Biggie and Tupac naturally)

True true!!
"His version of "Don't go Breaking my Heart" is still one of the most hilarious things I've ever heard."
Don't know it any links?
My best memory is when he turned up on stage and did a 15min set when on run from police with 200 police outside looking for him
R.I.P

It's on "A Son Unique" but after a bit of a search I couldn't find any audio streams.
Sure there are some sites that'll "lend" you it, but if you like it buy it - he does have 13/14 kids to support - truly an ol dirty bastard
Worth hearing - it is to Elt's version what "Good Morning Heartache" is to Barry White - somewhat askew

As far as i can tell he was a bit of a master. He never seems to get the credit he deserves. He's always looked at as a bit of a joke, a spectical.
