Weather Park: Ol' Dirty Bastard's Son Out To Dominate Drill Rap And Continue The Wu-Tang Legacy

Weather Park hopes to carve out his own legacy in Hip-Hop. The up-and-coming rapper faces the tall task of following in the footsteps of his father, the legendary Ol’ Dirty Bastard. Some artists in Weather Park’s position might try to tap into the Wu-Tang Clan’s loyal audience, but ODB’s son aims to make a name for himself in New York’s drill scene. Weather Park’s style evokes the popular sound of New York in 2023. He has gone in a completely different direction than his brother Young Dirty Bastard, who takes obvious inspiration from ODB and often performs with the Wu-Tang Clan. Although Weather Park’s ties to the Wu-Tang Clan are less overt, he’s still part of the family. He’s working with RZA’s 36 Chambers label, which has given him an outlet to drop music and learn from the mastermind of the Wu-Tang Clan. Following the releases of “Don’t Lack” and “Keep It a Buck,” Weather Park speaks with AllHipHop about his burgeoning career. The New York native discusses his memories of ODB, RZA’s mentorship, why he’s making drill music and much more.
