In a recent interview with Tim Westwood in Europe, RZA had some interesting remarks about the Roc’s newest member and the Wu’s clown prince. It turns out ODB went to RZA for his blessing, and his release, to sign with the Roc. In a refreshing gesture of putting fam before money, RZA signed his release without taking a penny. He also said he would be produced half of ODB’s next LP (said to be done in 60 days), the other half will be handled by Kanye, Just Blaze and The Neptunes. With those beats and Ol’Dirty’s infectious charisma, mad units are going to move…
