It was around this time that Ol’ Dirty Bastard gained notoriety when, as he was being profiled for an MTV biography, he took two of his seven children by limousine to a New York State welfare office to cash a $375 welfare check and receive food stamps; his latest album was still in the top ten of the US charts. The entire incident was filmed by an MTV camera crew and was broadcast nationwide. Although he had recently received a $45,000 cash advance for his first solo album and was earning a cut of the profits from the Wu-Tang Clan’s debut album, Ol’ Dirty Bastard was still listed as eligible for welfare and food stamps due to the fact that he had not yet filed his taxes for the current year. His caseworker revoked his eligibility after seeing the MTV segment, and the incident was viewed as an example of the welfare abuses that led to the significant welfare reforms enacted in 1996.
In 1997, Ol’ Dirty Bastard appeared on the Wu-Tang Clan’s second and most commercially successful work, the double album Wu-Tang Forever. He had fewer appearances on this album than the group’s debut, contributing to one solo track (“Dog Shit”), three verses (“Maria”, “Reunited”, “Heaterz”), one hook (“As High as Wu-Tang Get”), and a spoken introduction/refrain (“Triumph”).
