No it wasn't Return To the 36 Chambers The Dirty Version but this was an all out just crazy, wild and fun album. ODB was all over the place on this album and he sounded really good over The Neptunes production.

The album cover is classic, a homage to Rick James:

99 was the wu started making duds....with U Gods debut, Decks debut and Raekwons 2nd album dissapointement. ODB, Gza and Meths album with red were the only saving graces of the Wu that year.


ODB's 2nd album was not what was expected but it wasnt bad either......It sounded like a more mature ODB but who wants to hear that? Source gave it 4 mics.....Got Your Money introduced me to Kelis


The beat for "N!gga Please" was probably the best beat on the whole album....i still say they should have used that song instead of "Conditioner" as the ODB solo on The W album.

One of the worst sophomore albums ever imo. He had the wrong producers and was in an all around bad state of mind for this one.

A lot of cats don't know but the old comedian Blowfly was a huge inspiration for ODB and this album too:






And of course a lot of Richard Pryor.

Unfortunately, Yes.

I don't think the album was endorsed by the Wu-Tang Clan, and I'm pretty sure the RZA raised hell when it came out with legal action.

Yeah, because I remember back then my brother in law had EVERYTHING that most of the Wu had ever released. And I remember having that song on a mix cd I made.
