Every time I hear a hit single I think about the moments I was on top of my game under the sun with beautiful women and a big blunt and Dmx in the background, I was lite! I want to thank you for this. You have now left us but you will never be forgotten. My thoughts go to you and your family Dmx 4ever greetings from Amsterdam

    How many rappers admit that they have problems or struggled with drugs???!! They won't because of what people may think of them. DMX is the realest rapper I have ever come across and I have been listening to rap for over 40 years. He keeps/kept it real.

    @Crazelord91 4 роки тому +6

    I remember when I came across his first two albums years ago I wondered why he wasn't more respected in the game as his style was a lot more versatile than his reputation would have you believe.
    This video really explains it, thanks!

    DMX should start a podcast with Xzibit and call it the X-cast and talk about hip-hop relevant news and bring on special guest like OG’s in rap. It could help make them more relevant again since podcast are so big rn

    you know - i have this convo all the time - i really don't think DMX knew who he was - I don't think he realized how important he was to the culture - his acting was superb - his music was spectacular - he had the look, the attitude, and the voice let alone style and rhymes - at the time he came out, he was exactly what we needed - he will always be a top notch emcee to me - one of the greats in hip hop history - he deserves that

  • @essencessentials

    the fact that DMX been crackin since such an early age, and still did all that... thats a hard man indeed. Dudes, lets be real, eventhough i havent listened much to DMX, i can tell that he is THE dawg, and i havent listened to Jay-z at all... but from what ive heard , i know hes a better businessman than a rapper. Less is also more, as more is also less.

      @trifeloco 4 роки тому +4

      This is just me, but I think X is a much better lyricist than Pac was. But they're both 2 of the greatest if all time. Unfortunately one similarity between them is their downfall; Pac took his beef with people too far and his late gang affiliation was his demise. X had his demons with drug abuse. Both hugely talented artists.
