A never-before-seen interview with late Wu-Tang Clan member Ol’ Dirty Bastard has been unearthed.

The candid interview was originally shot for MTV in 1997, seven years prior to ODB’s death.

The charming Brooklyn MC covered a range of personal topics during the 30-minute conversation with Bloomberg’s Todd Greenberg, including his troubled family life and struggles with sobriety.
