The Trials and Tribulations of Russell Jones, Ol' Dirty Bastard's third album, was largely recorded while he was evading the authorities and finished just before he was arrested in a McDonald's in Philadelphia. Suffice it to say, this is not his best work. Despite the title (Russell Jones is ODB's real name), this is not a confessional record in which the Wu-Tang Clan man returns to sanity. Insanity is, in fact, a key part of his act and personality; the man who raps about "stinking like doo-doo" has a song entitled "I Wanna F**k" and is now spending two to four years in a New York prison.

If ODB's excellent Nigga Please explored his party side, then Tribulations delves into his dark depths, confirming his position as the Screamin' Jay Hawkins of hip-hop. The record brightens occasionally on tracks like "Caught Up," which takes off from where ODB left Kelis on "Got Ya Money," but while ODB's creative mania remains intact, the album's production feels rushed, with many of the beats sounding cheap and flat. Clan members such as the Rza and Raekwon are noticeably absent, wisely deciding to skip this one until their Shaolin colleague is free again. You best do the same. --Jake Barnes

Album Description

Long hailed as the most unpredictable and eccentric member of the Wu Tang Clan ODB (Ol' Dirty Bastard) can also be called unstoppable. Incarcerated since July of this year, ODB has not ceased to continue his illustrious career. Shortly after his sentencing, he signed a record deal with the Los Angeles based independent label D3 Entertainment. The album THE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS OF RUSSELL JONES will be released March 19th.

While ODB's antics offstage have, in recent times, drawn more publicity than his musical output, he has enjoyed astounding success with the Wu-Tang Clan as well as with his solo efforts. It was almost ten years ago that ODB, along with cousins RZA and the Genius, formed the Staten Island-based hip-hop supergroup Wu-Tang Clan. Along with several other core rappers, they hit the underground with their debut release, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) to critical acclaim and worldwide success. ODB's solo effort Return of the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version was released in 1995, and showcased his unique, maniacal, left of center style. N**** Please, was released in 1999 and achieved him legendary status.

Customer Reviews:

Poorly made remix album. 2 1/2 stars.......2005-01-24

I am a huge ODB fan that had to have all of his CDs, even this old thing. If you don't own this CD you're not missing much. For starters ODB and Wu-Tang had no input on this record. Dirty didn't even know it was being made. The whole album except for like three tracks are made from semi-rare B sides, MTV skits and awful unused studio cuts. Now, lets break the tracks down:

1. Intro -Funny as all hell

2. Caught Up -ODB only raps on this track for 20 seconds and it has one of the worse hooks in music history. **stars

3. Dirty & Stinkin' -Some O.K production, but what kills it is the guests Insane Clown Posse. Fourth remake of the song that I know of so far. **stars

4. Dogged Out -Sad remake of the song "Dog Shxt". The beat sounds Arabic and Too $hort sucks on his verse. **stars

5. Free With Money -Boring and thankfully short skit

6. Anybody -This is kinda good and C-Murder steals the show! *** stars

7. Waitress #13 - Skit, Dirty showing off his manners in a Diner.

8. Reunited -O.K remake of "Reunited" B side. *** stars

9. Here Comes the Judge -Wack as hell beat! Sounds like rejected carnival music! ODB goes crazy on this stinker. * 1/2 stars

10. Cute Devils -Skit, ODB showing love to some random fans.

11. I Wanna Fxck -Worse track yet! Who ever is singing that hook needs to stick to his day job. ODBs verse is recycled form "Don't You Know pt 2" and strange enough it seems censored. * star

12. Highjack -Sort of funny skit

13. Lintballs -Very good track even though Dirty has only one short verse. *** 1/2 stars

14. Zoo Two -Remake of "Brooklyn Zoo 2 (Tiger Crane)". Plain slow beats. ** 1/2 stars

15. Anybody (Remix) -Same lyrics crapier beat. ** 1/2 stars

16. Taking a Shxt -Very funny skit

17. C'mon -Remake of "Baby C'mon". Weak beats. ** stars

18. Dirty & Stinkin' (Remix) -Again, same lyrics crapier beat. Fifth remake of the song that I know of so far. * 1/2 stars

NOT THIS TIME.......2004-11-15

EVERYONE THINKING OF BUYING THIS, DONT! GET RETURN TO 36 CHAMBERS, ACTUALLY NO IF U AINT GOT THAT U AINT AN ODB OR WU FAN R.I.P OL DIRTY

THIS IS THE MOST WACKEST CD IVE EVER HEARD.......2004-01-28

FOR ANYONE WHO LIKES THIS CD THEY ARE NOT A TRUE WU FAN CAUSE THIS CD IS GARBAGE. MOST OF THE MUSIC IS TAKEN OUT OF THE RETURN TO THE 36 CHAMBERS AND PUT OVER NEW BEAT WACK BEATS AT THAT, WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING WHEN THEY PUT ICP,CMURDER,MACK10 ON THIS ALBUM. THIS IS JUST A WAY THE GREEDY INDUSTRY D3 RECORDZ WANTED TO MAKE MONEY OFF THIS MAN. WHEN THIS CD WAS COMING OUT ODB WAS IN JAIL AND HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS COMING OUT. I GAVE THIS CD 1 STAR BECAUSE IT ONLY HAD ONE GOOD ORIGINAL SONG ON THERE AND THAT WAS LINTBALLZ WITH BROOKLYN ZOO AND SUNZ OF MAN,TO ANY TRUE WU FAN OUT THERE I ADVISE YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS CD.

Review of ODB's third solo effort.......2003-07-22

I have always been a fan of Ol' Dirty Bastard. His first two albums were both highly enjoyable. His vocal talent, which is so awful that it's brilliant (i.e. Biz Markie) and his drugged-out flow are truly one of a kind. That being said, D3 has done his fans wrong.

Despite what any album summary might tell you, ODB did not record this album while on the run from the law. In fact, none of these songs were even recorded by him. Almost half of the tracks on the album are skits taken from MTV interviews. Of the remaining, more than half are old vocals over awful beats. They actually take a well-known track from his first solo album and put another beat behind it. Even the lead single featuring cult rap group, Insane Clown Posse has recycled ODB lyrics. There are only about three tracks that have unreleased vocals on them and none of them are worth it.

This album contains no production or guest appearances from any member of the Wu-Tang Clan and in fact would be better served to call itself a "remix" album than try to pawn itself off as a brand new ODB album, which it is not.

My first listen was my last..........2002-12-07

First song has the worst group ever, ICP, that automatically makes this CD horrible from the beginning. The majority of ODB's lyrics are just cut out of old Wu-Tang songs. The production is horrible. Stay away from this CD, I don't even consider it a Wu CD.
