Untitled
editSomeone who edited this must list all the tracks of the CD! Jack
- The track listing for the album would be more appropriate in the entry for the actual album, and not in the entry for Obie Trice. The only suitable listing for the Obie Trice entry would be a discograpgy, but since he has only released one album to date that hardly seems necessary. - Quoth 08:59, 3 Dec 2003 (UTC)
- I made a page for his newest album, the tracklisting is in there, the cover will be there as soon as it's available. User:Sam15
Songs
editI added a few more tracks that he's featured on.
Birth Date
editFrom the track titled "Follow My Life" on Cheers: "Eleven, Fourteen, Seventy-seven a n***a enter/Big lips, popped out placenta/..." – Quoth 10:03, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Addition: I think the man himself would be the one to trust for his birth date.. 08 march 1990
- Quoth 21

- IMDB.com agrees that he was born in 1979, that's why I changed it. -- Mike Garcia | talk 21:10, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I understood from reading your edit summary in early October 2004, but as you can see; the IMDB profile you refer to has long-since been corrected, and, like any community contribution oriented project, information therein should be taken with a grain of salt and definitely not used as the sole source or reference. Particularly when a better source has been found, in this instance it's the person themselves stating when they were born. Are you going to continue to revert the changes back to what IMDB once said, over what Obie Trice said his own birthday was? Forgive me if I sound a little harsh but this topic has been here for discussion since you first edited the article in October 2004, which I mention in my edit summaries, but which you seemingly ignored until your fourth reversion of his birth date and a plea on your talk page. – Quoth 03:01, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
- IMDB.com still doesn't say 1977 and that's why I changed again. -- Mike Garcia | talk 13:40, 6 July 2005 (UTC)
- What makes IMDB.com such an infallible source of information? It has stated three different years since this discussion started. – Quoth 13:43, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
- I'd say go with '77. If he were making himself younger I would be suspect, but I don't see any reason to be suspicious of why he would be claiming to be older if he wasn't. I know this may sound a bit stalkery, but he's still listed on zabasearch, which says Nov 1977. --Fallout boy 10:19, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
Third and Fourth Singles
editWho says that "Wanna Know" and "Jamaican Girl" are his next two singles? That's not confimed. 64.175.74.162 08:42, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Actually Jamaican Girl was confirmed to be a single, Wanna Know i am not sure but the video for jamaican girl was shot. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.96.84.200 (talk) 03:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Other feuds?
editI've heard a verse (Shit Hits the Fan) where Obie seems to be dissing 50 Cent? Any confirmation on the intent or cause of this would be appreciated.68.164.200.167 (talk) 06:50, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Ja Rule has mentioned Obie in a couple of intervews but without sayin anything intermediate.
Family:
editNot much is known about Obie's Family.Only that he livede with his mother, a single parent. and he has a lil gurl, rumored be called Chloe (Chloe is tattooed on his neck).He is currently still with her mother,age and birthdate is unknown. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.16.180.207 (talk) 16:05, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Biography
editCould someone clarify this passage found in the biography?
"In June 2008, Obie Trice departed from Shady Records. A misunderstanding was made where it was believed he was attacking the label and Eminem on a single titled "The Giant" but they were quickly dismissed" Gcharestiii (talk) 04:49, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Label Confussion
editDo you think I should make an article about Trice's label to confirm to all wikipedia users that he's NOT signed to Lil Jon's Black Market Entertainment.--Supergamer345 (talk) 09:46, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
proposed category
editMy wiki experience is very basic, I never really got into categories, but I wonder if there's merit for a "rappers who use their real names" category. It's unusual enough to be noteworthy, and a quick poke around Google shows that Obie isn't the only one. Anyone else think this is worthwhile? K.clow (talk) 16:37, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
