Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s Widow Issues Cease and Desist Letter To Rock The Bells Organizer
Earlier we reported Eazy-E and Ol’ Dirty Bastard would be performing at Rock The Bells, however his widow, Icelene Jones, who happens to be the administrator of his estate says she did not sign off on that. As administrator of his estate she owns the rights to his likeness, lyrics, and performances, and she says nobody at Rock The Bells contacted her about the hologram performance. Icelene Jones says she’s upset that nobody contacted her directly about the use of her husbands likeness, and she will be talking with Wu-Tang about this incident and coming up with a positive solution to bring her husband back to the stage. Hopefully they can get it together because seeing Ol’ Dirty once more on stage would be legendary for hip hop. Hit the jump for more.
