- Please calm down...I went and bought me a suit today that costed me a lot of money today, because I figured that Wu-Tang was gonna win. I don't know how you all see it, but when it comes to the children, Wu-Tang is for the children. We teach the children. Puffy is good, but Wu-Tang is the best. I want you all to know that this is O.D.B., and I love you all. Peace. - at the 1998 Grammy Awards, in which he jumped on stage during Shawn Colvin's acceptance for Song of the Year in protest of Wu-Tang Clan losing Best Rap Album to Sean 'P Diddy' Combs
