[@MasteringPersonalFinanceWithCJ]

Definitely, I had to rewind that part😢

[@thegeorgiaaquarius]

DMX needs a biopic

[@youtubeaccount458]

And it should be Irv who does it. Nobody else would be able to make it like Irv. Not only did he have a very personal relationship with X since the very beginning but he also has a personal relationship with everyone that was around X. Only Irv gotti can get the stories right and make sure everyone that was around X gets to tell their part, the real stories. And not end up with some Lame movie like the 2pac movie.

[@thegeorgiaaquarius]

Ima always respect Irv for believing in DMX 💯
