Battle For ODB's Estate Continues

by JOKESTA

TUESDAY MARCH 25, 2008

Late Wu Tang Clan rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard has yet to rest in peace due to fierce battles between his mother, Cherry Jones, and his widow, Icelene Jones, over his fortune. 

According to reports,  his family will head back to Brooklyn Surrogate Court on April 1st, where Cherry Jones will challenge the role of her son's widow as administrator of his estate. 

"Cherry claims Ice lene is misusing the funds," said a source.

"It's become mom vs. daughter-in-law and it's up to the judge to decide."

This however, isn't the first time the two have battled over ODB's estate. In late 2006, Icelene Jones accused Cherry Jones of taking hundred of thousands of dollars of ODB's money.

“It appears that $200,000 to $500,000 of funds belonging to (ODB) may have been misused or be owed by Cherry Jones to the estate." Said Cherry in court documents.

ODB’s former manager, Jarred Weisfeld came to his mothers defense by saying “That’s the most retarded allegation I’ve ever heard in my life. Icelene knows where all that money went – it went to Icelene. All Dirty did was take care of her.”

I hope the two of them can come to some type of agreement where it is a positive for the entire family.

man if you think about it
you would you want the money to go to your ex bitch
or your mom
unless your girl and you had a lot of kids
theres no need argue
the kids should go to the mom (if there is any)
then give all the money to the mom
then the girl can go find someone else to mooch off of

Question: Give what to the kids? Nah really…what are they going to give to the kids? Y’all makin it sound like my man Dirt McGirk aka ODB was caking. Y’all remember that VHI show how he was living in his mom’s basement while he was on Probation? Son was ready to get paid when that Nigga Dame signed him to the ROC,…I presume his advance money was a cool million (remember back in 03 record deal advance money was higher then today). So lets do the math, a mill from Dame, subtract back pay court fees & child support, I’ll be surprised if he had more then 300k when he died,….now Dame still realesed his album through DDMG (I think), but how many people copped Dat?...exactly, Unless the Rza is still sending them Checks, that Estate is looking just like Tito & Jermaine Jackson (who also lives at home with their moms at 57 years old…lol )

So ladies do the math, leave that shit alone & don’t quit your day Job

Isnt this the dude who went to collect food stamps while riding in a limo on MTV to do it?? Naw seriously, ODB added another style to Wu-Tang, if him and Em did a song together, thatd put ODB on hip hops map, not as a bum, but a MC. If yall want a good listen, cop that single him and Snoop did,"MC Conditioner", classic, raw ODB at his best...RIP Ol Dirty Bastard.

You gotta remember album sales were way higher back then. It was likely he went platinum or at least gold. Also Wu-Tang had huge sales, tour money, merch money, clothes, comic books, all that shit. I'm sure he got a bunch of money in a signing bonus with R.O.C.

^^^Wow You aint fuckin around huh? LMAO

Truthfully im just bored witchu. Unless u can find somethin funny to say I really have no interest.

Obviously it aint much u can do or say that I really give a fuck about.

Just be funny. The only person trashin my comments is U. And the only people propping your comments is 1 or 2 add water and stir ass dick riders

You have no clout and we have no audience. Its good to know dat chu still get excited when U read one of my comments and u wanna show me that chu are still swingin

I honestly forgot chu existed Lil Homie.

I dont remember what I used to say to you but obviously you are still very upset from it. Lmao

Im sorry U still dont feel like U got the best of me.

I'll tell U what.

Next time U come at me I'll try to act like im real mad about it and then you will finally feel like your winning....Okay

But instead of worrying about me so much maybe U should find out if dat dude Mike has those Nude photos u were askin him for!

It's not a whole lot I can say to embarass u more than U can embarass yourself!

eh i think itd be right for the mom to get it, but damn with all those kids...that aint gonna happen. dont know tha babys momma tho, so who knows if she actually even usin the money on the kids. I would say money to the mom, but then i guess her pay child support money every month. His girl dont deserve to have that much money, but those kids need it, and fuck given hundreds of thousands of dollars to kids. how old r they anyway?
