Short for Vordul Megallah. One of two brilliant, troubled rappers from the ill-fated Def Jux act Cannibal Ox.
The band'
s druggy visions of apocalyptic Harlem poverty--influenced by comic books and sci-fi--led white critics circa 2000 to praise them as the next Wu
Tang. But they never followed up on the promise of their debut
CD, "The
Cold Vein."
Vordul reportedly lives and panhandles in Harlem.
