ODB Rollin Over In His Grave

[DaHNIC82]

Lowkey I actually see Dirt doing a crazy video for this

 

[Fade Runner 2049]

Sadly, I doubt his affairs were in order as far as publishing/masters etc

I never thought I would hear an ODB song in a commercial. It’s probably a lot more heads getting into these type of positions now so they can do something like this and provide some money to the family or give an opportunity to an MC. Plus we don’t get some guy who’s never listened to Hip Hop in his life writing “now my name is Steve and I’m here to say” ass rhymes for some actor to say in a commercial.

odb/wu used to be in all kinds of advertisements and featured in films

what's the issue?

 

[NZA]

hey, it was harmless. i just hope the kids got some holiday money because of this

 

[Nostalgic]

by his family eating off his royalties? I dont understand the fake outrage here

Because it's a very corny rendition of one of his hits.

looks slick af

Really does.

 

[RajWatts]

At least he got a posthumous banger on the Busta album

1. This corny AF
2. I hope Miss Cherry getting those checks

I just replace the name of 2 everytime I see these commercials

i think having it listed as a feature means ODB or his estate/family in this case gets more money but i was disappointed when it turned out to just be a sample and not an unreleased verse.

This is basically every rapper's dream, crossover and cash in from cacs.

If you notice a lot of these commercial spaces like Walmart and target are using black music in their ads now.. and not just any black music but music that goes with the ad.. that tells me they are using black Ad agencies

that Walmart commercial used the Aretha Franklin cover of Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell’s your all I need to get by.. IMO the Aretha version is better

I hope his family is getting bread off this shyt. On another note, that Mary J Blige Target commercial comes on at least 50 times a day. I know she was having some money issues....hopefully she's getting paid too. A lot of these artists' deals are fukked up, so who knows what type of paper they see

So what would not be corny in your opinion

I thought I remember the Ghetto Superstar song being in a Pepsi commercial back in the day but maybe I’m just and cant remember correctly
