Year launched: 2007

ODB created his own clothing line, Dirt McGirt, and his own underwear line, Ol’ Dirty Drawers.
An American rapper who went by the stage name Ol’ Dirty Bastard (often shortened to ODB) was one of the founding members of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan. After establishing the Wu-Tang Clan, Ol’ Dirty Bastard went on to a successful solo career. However, his professional success was hampered by his erratic personal behavior and frequent legal troubles, including incarceration. He died in late 2004 of congestive heart failure as a result of an accidental drug overdose only two days before his 36th birthday.
