BIO
Young Dirty Bastard, also known as Barsun Unique Jones, is a recording artist, performer, and creative force carrying forward one of the most iconic legacies in music as the son of the late, great Ol’ Dirty Bastard of the legendary Wu Tang Clan. While rooted in hip hop history, YDB has built a powerful identity of his own through original music, electrifying performances, major brand collaborations, and crossover projects spanning music, gaming, fashion, and pop culture.
In 2026, YDB reached the number one spot on Apple Music’s The New East Coast editorial playlist with “Quantum Lights,” further establishing his growing presence as a solo artist while also earning placement on Apple Music’s Bars playlist. He also collaborated with the NFL during the 2025 playoffs with his song “Next Man Up,” which was used as a hype record tied to the excitement of the postseason.
YDB also collaborated with SEGA on the legendary SHINOBI franchise, creating the original track “The Path Just Begun” for the video game SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance, connecting his music directly with one of gaming’s most iconic titles.
Beyond music, YDB has partnered with lifestyle brands such as Dixxon Flannel Co. and continues to perform on major stages alongside Wu Tang, currently touring and helping bring the legendary Wu Tang legacy to new generations of fans.
YDB was also the youngest artist to take part in Wu Tang Clan’s hip hop residency and has been part of one of the highest grossing tours connected to the Wu Tang legacy. His work continues to honor his father’s impact while building a bold new chapter of his own.
