NEW YORK - A funeral for troubled rapper O.D.B. was set for Thursday in Brooklyn as family and friends continued to remember the artist.

Jones, 35, collapsed and died Saturday inside a Manhattan recording studio. The cause of death remained undetermined, but the co-founder of the seminal rap group Wu-Tang Clan had struggled with drug and alcohol addictions. He had complained of chest pains before he died.

O.D.B. was known for his unique rap styles, which ranged from the slurred to the hyper to the nonsensical. Even in the nine-man Clan, with featured such future stars as Method Man, RZA and Ghostface Killa, he stood out. He recently signed with Roc-a-Fella records.

This was the first I had heard of it. I guess I should start flipping over to the Road Rules channel at 10 til the hour to get my news updates.
