DMX is a real man. I know he is resting in the bosom of the Almighty!! I will always know where I was when we heard of his passing. My deepest condolences to his FAMILY & Children & Friends.
This man was never a boy never had a childhood never had a family and struggled with drugs and even then he had a bright star that shined and will NEVER turn off. You could feel every letter of every song he made. Amazing man
Real men get emotional. I grew up with abuse, I grew up having to be tough. I grew up having to be mean bastard. I got into DMX and found out I could show vulnerabilities and cry as well. He showed me a lot about being a man.

You can just tell he was so hurt and betrayed- even at 50 the pain was still fresh. He lost his life to an addiction that wasnt even his choice. RIP DMX, we lost a legend
@@beanstocks5782 You have a hard time understanding things, it's such a shame you have such a terrible disability. Hopefully you will get better in the future 😌
@@beanstocks5782 once you hit that first hit, its pretty much down hill from there... Ur mind not ur body starts to crave for it no matter how long ur away from it. Trust me i know, i got hooked by a female. I try not to use n dont want to use it but its somewhere in my mind that i keep asking God to take it away. This drug ain't like heroin, weed or anything else u know of. Its the most addicted drug i know of...i tried getting help but people don't believe me. Addiction will always be apart of an addicts life because we will always be addicts wither sober or not...it just takes one event that cause someone to relapse... Don't question someone or judge them if haven't even be there urself yet still don't judge someone. An addict would probably be more of a friend than the ones u got. RIP DMX watch over all those who fight just as you once have...
When mfs talk about "Rappers That Are Real", DMX is the epitome of that. Real men cry, show emotions but society got us thinking that that makes us look weak or feminine. Let's give this brother his roses right now! Peace and Love!
Teach your son never to smoke or snort anything! Least of all something he did not see tested in front of him. DMX went through a lot of trauma in his life, abuse, bipolar disorder and on top of it tricked into using a powerfully addictive drug.
Man , I talk to my son about this all the time, and I’m afraid Of bad people like the one that introduced him to crack. I met DMX a while back and he was the nicest person ever.
Yeah man it’s kinda amazing to be of that age and still focused on that aspect of his life.....I love X’s career but yet and still I wish he was able to grow from his experiences and move forward.....we all got issues....God bless him tho
Crack doesn't mess you up, people who have messed up mental health conditions are drawn to crack and other drugs as a means of escaping them, the idea that people are tricked into smoking crack and become lifelong addicts is a load of rubbish, crack isnt even that addictive you can stop if you want to just eat loads of oranges, bananas and drink water.
@@CJ-tc7xh - Yeah okay I get that, and personality can determine addiction too, but there's a lot of scare stories about crack, like people drop dead after smoking it when I used to meet stone smokers in their 60's who had their first pipe at age 15 smoking me under the table... yes, they had periods of sobriety but this idea that crack cocaine is a killer is nonsense. KNOW YOUR LIMITS and to the one who said im trolling keep thinking that, there are plenty of functional crack users out there that know when to stop and live normal lives and indulge in their habit on the weekend.
His life was ruined long before that. No parents and no one really cared about him, because otherwise he would not be in an institution at 7yrs old. And no OG/homie/friend would have access like that to him at 14 yrs old.
This is why Im scared to smoke anything with ANYONE, because you never know...he was 14..and someone he looked up to did this shit to him.. praying for DMX ❤️🙏🏾
Had pcp in one of my blunts and I fell twice hit my head on pavement and got a concussion. My tongue swole up so bad I couldnt close my mouth and I had fluod coming out of my left nostril, and from the drugs my heart was beating so fast
There are sooo many ppl who were messed up by people they trusted, loved and cared for. I have also been a victim of that and through the help of God i was able to forgive and forget in the aspect of not holding it against the person but using my situation and experience to help others. i have come to realize that once you get up in the morning and you breathe the breath of life, is an opportunity for change but we have to make a conscious effort to do so!
What a wicked evil thing to do to someone. My uncle did this to my brother when he was about the same age. He’s doing better now after spending over a decade of his life in prison. He knew my mother was sick And paralyzed and yet he did this. I pray for people like this all the time.
For people like that is why I believe in eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. The bible says we don't and shouldn't have control over the others' life, but if the referred person is damaging lives, do we take the same route? I'm an angel in heart, but couldn't stand shit like that. When we understand or try to understand evil and why people do it, it only causes more rage inside. Addicting others to shit, just cuz you are hooked too, or to make money off them, raping, abusing phisically (aggression), everything's related to selfishness and control and only shows weakness in the person. Some say never act in a vengeful act, cuz life takes it's own course, but we also have a shitload of examples where that ain't true and a 'helping hand' would make a good difference. I feel such rage as to the way we're built as a society, that if I could arm myself as a bomb using what I feel as ingredients, I could blow up a whole fucking country. Look out for you and yours, but look out for others too, some people obviously don't deserve shit, but you never lose nothing but time by trying once. Choose the good motherfucking path, yes it's harder, and you might not die rich, but atleast you die happy with what u did with life. Peace to you and yours who deserve it. May X rest in peace and may his suffering teach even more people than it already did, I really loved him and hoped good for him, man it hurts and at the same time feels weird to miss and feel pain for someone you don't even know, that just means what he did in life meant something important.
And so many judges he stood in front of saw that and were lenient with their sentencing. It's like they knew he was an abused pup and the felt sorry for him.
Addiction is horrendous. People don’t always understand how much the person wants to stop, but the desire isn’t always enough. Only a lucky few are able to quit and it’s so tragic for those who can’t.
No disrespect but so was dmx....doing armed robberies is total P.O.S. behavior....we overlook that because he became someone who entertained us for years....those stick ups can TRAUMATIZE those that are robbed
@@mrhoopfan1 he was 14 and he was institutionalized from age 7-14 and grew up on the streets in poverty with terrible influences. America is the piece of shit that raises our babies to be other than what they were born to be.
This man was literally dealt a bad hand in life, the good thing is that he never gave up he is still fighting for his life and his soul! i hope he conquer these demons and live a peaceful life
How could you not love this man DMX, he is powerful ! I love that he can be vulnerable enough to tell his story . He's been through so much pain but I'm glad he's getting through it 🙏
He really wanted to stop so many times. His tears are reminiscent of my own when I get off a coke and alcohol bender. Shit is mad wack for real. You tell yourself this is it, I’m fucking done. Next thing you know you haven’t slept in 2 days. You start ignoring everyone because you’re embarrassed and ashamed, but the cycle continues. I feel blessed I have some sort of control right now while my addiction is in it’s early stages. I catch my self all the time fight an urge or telling myself I don’t need any of that shit. I really did have DMX’s albums as a young kid in Chicago. I heard The Great Depression on my Walkman over and over again. It’s dark and hell is hot. Now I’m 27 living in LA, and X is in a coma. Prayers for you Earl Simmons. God will take all your pain away, you have suffered enough brother.
i hope you gonto rehab now. dont think anout anything but that is what would be good for u. bc no one expect themselves to die or get far gone once they try”a little “ bit of it
@@landismithCOJ love that. This one too: Ate somethin', a couple of forties made me hate somethin' I did some coke, now I'm ready to take somethin' Three years later showin' signs of stress Didn't keep my hair cut or give a fuck how I dressed
If his own parents never showed him love and felt that abandonment all his life to think that you finally found someone you believe loves you and cares for you to show his true feelings & find out all it’s a lie is the worst kind of pain 😢RIP hoping you’ve found peace 🙏🏽
Every time I hear this story, I cry. You can hear the pain...it's excruciatingly hard to hear. He would break down every time he told this story. I just remember him saying, "A monster was born!" DMX thank you for your realness, for being raw, unapologetic, transparent and just real. You may have struggled with your addiction but lyrically you painted a life of Art in how you dealt with life. You were a real MC, not this mess they are doing these days in the rap culture. I will miss your prayers!!! Rest well DMX, Earl Simmons.
Hence why, it is good to be wary at all times and teach young people wrong from right early, so they can't get tricked by bad minds. Unfortunately many people don't have somebody there to guide them through life. But GOD's a Father to all that need a Father, X wasn’t perfect but GOD had him, which is why he lasted this long.
I’m so sorry this traumatic betrayal done to DMX as a 14 year old boy is just tragic. The fact too that this still affects him to this day just breaks my heart for him. He has had so much abuse and trauma as a child. As a survivor of abuse as a child i know exactly where he’s coming from. I’m so sorry he is gone now . A true man of courage. Love this man. Rip DMX
You'll be suprise how people really feel about you, and whole time dude probably was jealous of him because of his skills. But if you hang with dirt you get dirty.
This is an interview with his mentor Ready Ron. ua-cam.com/video/pq8MwMQ7XVcA/v-deo.htmlnd After watching it I don’t think he was trying to get the DMX hooked. I think he was also an addict himself. A crack addict will sell their child for more crack. You don’t think a crack addict would give crack to a child? It wouldn’t surprise me if his drug dealer offered him more crack in exchange for bringing the dealer more potential addicts.
I was gonna say “DMX turned back into a 14 year old when taking about what happened to him” but that would be wrong. DMX never moved on from being that hurt 14 year old. When we experience something so traumatic at a young age, we often stay that age emotionally. It’s sad and it breaks my heart all over again. Rest in Power DMX. You are a king and your legacy will forever live on ❤️
I ran into DMX right when he came home, randomly, like a year and half ago in DC at a bowling alley. He (and his security) looked at me, I looked at him...we walked up to each other and embraced. I was more empathetic about his struggle, having just come home and all that he's dealt/dealing with...far more than I was star struck. I appreciate his transparency in this interview. I hope he's keeping thorough cats in his immediate circle.
You should be telling them though what’s in the weed if something is in the weed ppl these days don’t they going to know that you don’t wanna smoke something laced but one day these fuckers goin get beat tfu if they try the wrong person but there trying to get you addicted to other drugs and this is why I get my weed from people I trust my own people.
I can’t stop watching this because being deceived by someone you care about is the worst trauma that a person can go thru! You can see the pain this has caused him! Much love DMX! God sees all!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
You can tell after X got the story out, and got a chance to tell Talib how much he admires him as a MC............ That X literally got relaxed and could communicate more calmly, less jittery, with less Anxiety etc. Goes to show you how much communicating our issues can benefit someone socially.......
1993, me and my best friend since kindergarten were fresh off a lick and counting up. I had been away in the military for 4 years, returned and jumped right into the streets, At the time I had no clue he had started using cocaine while I was away .He opened the baggie took a blow, then offered it to me. Now I grew up in a household with a parent who became a crackhead and up until that day had never been pressured to indulge. I scooped a small amount into my pinkie nail. Right when my finger reached my nostril my friend punched me in the face harder than I had ever been struck in my 22 years. Then said "If I ever hear of you trying this shit anywhere anytime I'll personally come kill you!!" 28 years later and I've never tried cocaine, heroin, ecstasy,molly, percs, zan's, or nothing else. He's been gone since 97 and all these years later I still thank him for that one day. Rest in paradise to both of them 👑👑
This guy's suffered his whole life, I know he's holding in child abuse and God knows what else...always loved him for his prayers... God bless his soul.
He said it's so perfect he said "we appreciate you weathering these storms and going through these trials and tribulations and these hard times so you can tell us this story" woahh that was deep much love to X ! R.I.P DOGMAN
The way his heart overflowed with his testimony without even really being prompted to tell about the drug addiction...that's true pain. You are free now brother
Shizit NoT None Of MINES WOULD DO THAT!! & I Also Grew Up with Dude's later convicted of hideous crimes that Some of YOUS May have heard of in NEWS BRIEFS while Channel Surfing!!;! But as a YOUNGINS They NEVER WANTED ME HIGH OFF ANYTHIING BUT LIFE & MONEY..
One thing I realized as an adult is when it come to compassion it’s like finding money on the ground. That being said I never look for it in people but when it’s received it’s a a blessing. RIP X
I don't think he forgave himself or that man. He carried this pain all his life since 14. My god it's so many mean people in this world. That's why i don't drink or smoke.
You can do it. Please, don't give up. Just as how the devil tried to use drug addiction to ruin DMX to hide his gift. He is trying to do thesame to you, please don't give up. You must be a very special soul that's gonna touch the world just how X did. The devil is scared of what you might become and he's given you this curse but you can overcome it. Stay strong please
Dig deep and find your inner strength. DMX's life doesn't have to be in vain. He told his story, his testimony to help others! You can do it! You have time!
I never thought DMX would make me cry. In the past couple months he's made tear up a few times. Recently I teared up out of happiness hearing him on the track You ain't got shit from the new LOX album. It was really nice to hear his voice, like he was an old friend I hadn't talked to in a long time. Then I watched the video and teared up seeing X just standing by with the LOX and then stepping forward to spit his verse. Been banging that track hard and frequently lately. Tearing up to see and hear DMX back on the scene. So now DMX has me really crying and not just tearing up and it's outta sheer empathy and sadness for the brother and just one tragic scar from his childhood. I'm just coming down from crying as I type this while it's paused at 4:58 out of the 10:37 video. I haven't even finished the whole thing yet. I just rewound a minute and showed my wife and she was tearing up too. I instantly was reflective and told my wife how much it breaks my heart that children grow up with that kind of an environment and how grateful I've always been to have been blessed with a very sheltered upbringing as a child. I grew up in a Mormon household and didn't see smoking drinking or drugs until I was a teenager going out. I started smoking Ganja at 16 and have been all about herb for 24 years now. Because of that I only ever kicked it with and been tight homies with people that are mainly only smoking herb and occasionaly mushrooms if they doing anything. I'm 40 and I've never even seen anyone shoot up, abuse pills, smoke rock and have only seen people sniff blow twice, once being the one and only time I tried it. I don't like being around people drinking and have avoided bars and alcohol culture. I have had no more than 30-40 alcoholic beverages at the very most in any given year of my life. I’ve never been to an AA or NA meeting and so I've never really seen or heard things like this in person before. I feel like DMX just made me cry with a scared straight kinda vibe, like he's reaching out to the kid in me and telling me to watch out for that kinda stuff and those kinds of people. As a father of two young children my heart breaks for the brother DMX. I see the hurt young child that is Earl and how and why he became the DMX that we know and love. I cried for Earl and all he trauma he's experienced in his environmental upbringing that no child should ever have to see or experience. This is full interview is going to be insanely powerful when I hear it in its entirety. This has already been heavy and I still haven't finished watching this 10 minute clip. Give thanks to Talib Kweli and Jasmine for talking hip hop culture and for talking realness. This interview was healing for me, gonna be healing for plenty of people and most of all I hope it helps DMX heal. I feel like this may have been the most he's ever opened up like this. To all yall brothers and sisters reading this comment, thank you for your time. Peace, love and understanding to the world. Aloha
I just finished the rest of the clip after typing my first comment and X had me tearing up again. Love and respect to the brother DMX for opening up like he did and sharing his pain and struggle on and off wax.
Your comment is monumental. I don’t even know if you get how on point this is bro. You and the other dude that commented get it. I appreciate dudes cut from a different fabric. DMX was one of my favs since I first heard him
And something important too. There’s many wolves in sheep’s clothing in this world. Always look at people with suspicion, watch your back all the time and never grow any attachment unless they prove to themselves to not be a snake.
He is so genuine.I wished I coulve met him.Hes speaks so clear despite his difficulties.Hes a brotha I respect.He is honest and not shame.He was sooo close to breaking through.Thats tje first step.He was not prideful. True example of humility and seeking help.
Yes he is & he is saying that DMX is lying on him....I do believe X, and why wait till after he is dead to say this, dude had years too dispute everything X said....RIP⚘DMX🥺
That’s the reason why I love X so much , he’s never afraid to show his emotions, he always speaks from his heart and experience Salute King We love you X
The fact that this guy been hooked on drugs almost his whole life & yet in his music he never promoted drug usage & he would tell kids to stay away from drugs & he would actually help people who were drug addict to overcome their drug habits. Even though he was going through those problems he would still help & that's one thing I admired. God bless this man 🙏
If this Man doesn’t touch your heart you ain’t alive. Folks always so quick to say “these are nothing but excuses “. But one fucked up day can really put you on a deadly path. Only a fortunate few make it. We Love You X.
X always seemed like he was tweakin’ and couldn’t relax. We knew he had his battles with substance abuse but I felt like we could all see that battle going on inside him like a tug of war all the time. He is probably the most honest artist in hip hop. 🙏🏾🙏🏽
Dmx is the realest most vulnerable most touching human (not just a rapper) that u have ever seen. Much respect to you dmx, you changed alotta people for the good.
You ain’t have to suffer no more X, you were an underdog your whole life and still was able to shine and showcase your talents and spirits in your music. Was proud to had a chance to met you in real life, even if was just a brief moment to tell you how much of a big fan I was and salute to you for being a legend in hip-hop. RIP DMX. 🙏🏽

This drug ain't like heroin, weed or anything else u know of. Its the most addicted drug i know of...i tried getting help but people don't believe me. Addiction will always be apart of an addicts life because we will always be addicts wither sober or not...it just takes one event that cause someone to relapse... Don't question someone or judge them if haven't even be there urself yet still don't judge someone. An addict would probably be more of a friend than the ones u got. RIP DMX watch over all those who fight just as you once have...
This was painful to watch man. God bless DMX
Amen 🙏🏽
Amen..Praise God!!🙏🏾
it really was, praying for him. 😢😓😥🙏🙏
Sure was bro. Especially when i had the same thing happen.
He was sooooo hurt 😞 behind that‼️ don’t give me no damn crack if you love me. You know how that shit destroys people 😡 R.I.P DMX
Facts.........this can't be made up it was told with too much emotion.
i’m hurting for the guy. “Why would you do that to somebody who looked up to you? To a child?”
My God, this was so hard to watch! My heart is so hurt. 😥
A dog has nothing but love to give; unconditional. And all they want from you is your love and affection! 🐶❤️
It destroys people? How
Who is here after hearing the news of his overdose? Realest MC ever. Praying for you Big Dog
he was going so well 😔
Lord, give him a sign :(
Me. I'm so sad after seeing this. I thought he just didn't want to help himself. It's more than that. This is so heartbreaking.
Im praying for him too.
😩😭
When mfs talk about "Rappers That Are Real", DMX is the epitome of that. Real men cry, show emotions but society got us thinking that that makes us look weak or feminine. Let's give this brother his roses right now! Peace and Love!
Solute dmx🌹
He is still alive because of YAH"s Grace and Mercy and he recognizes the Lord's Mercy towards him.
amen brother
Always know that REAL WOMEN can appreciate a REAL MAN who shows her his heart, feelings and emotions. GOD BLESS 🙏
The mainstream rappers mowadays are the ones who are feminine af 🤦🏽♂️
How am I crying for a man a never met? Maybe because it reminds me I can’t protect my son from this cruel world
Because his story is raw and real. You can’t help but to cry 😔. So sad every which way you take it. I pray he recovers
That part yes ! Hits home
Teach your son never to smoke or snort anything! Least of all something he did not see tested in front of him.
DMX went through a lot of trauma in his life, abuse, bipolar disorder and on top of it tricked into using a powerfully addictive drug.
Man , I talk to my son about this all the time, and I’m afraid Of bad people like the one that introduced him to crack. I met DMX a while back and he was the nicest person ever.
Because you have a compassionate heart !
"I wouldn't do that to my worst enemy... I wouldn't WISH that on my worst enemy". This is heartbreaking. RIP X.
Could you explain me what he said exactly, i couldnt understand the situation he said clearly
He's so conflicted. Love's his homie and hates him at the same time. Knows that that one hit - was the dark cloud over his life. Deep.
DMX is truly a poet. He can make you see a story with his words and feel pain with his delivery.
@MKM you sound like one of those ppl who hear but don't listen.
You are right he is a true poet , Thank you for watching
DMX hasn't stopped judging himself for that moment all the way to now. Hold strong brotha.
So true he hasn't forgiven himself 😔
i kinda took this reaction as X understanding what addiction has cost him in his lifetime.
He needs to forgive the guy cuz he was a victim of environment as well. And also forgive himself for holding onto it
Yeah man it’s kinda amazing to be of that age and still focused on that aspect of his life.....I love X’s career but yet and still I wish he was able to grow from his experiences and move forward.....we all got issues....God bless him tho
@@VolkXue exactly
DMX knows that moment he smoked that blunt with crack, it ruined his life forever.
May he rest in peace
Crack doesn't mess you up, people who have messed up mental health conditions are drawn to crack and other drugs as a means of escaping them, the idea that people are tricked into smoking crack and become lifelong addicts is a load of rubbish, crack isnt even that addictive you can stop if you want to just eat loads of oranges, bananas and drink water.
@@anonanon5144 Also have the genetic factor. Some people can’t get off it, it’s easier for others to quit then some based off genetics.
@@anonanon5144 Smh trolling much?
@@CJ-tc7xh - Yeah okay I get that, and personality can determine addiction too, but there's a lot of scare stories about crack, like people drop dead after smoking it when I used to meet stone smokers in their 60's who had their first pipe at age 15 smoking me under the table... yes, they had periods of sobriety but this idea that crack cocaine is a killer is nonsense. KNOW YOUR LIMITS and to the one who said im trolling keep thinking that, there are plenty of functional crack users out there that know when to stop and live normal lives and indulge in their habit on the weekend.
It’s not that addictive 🤣
His life was ruined from 14 but he passed at 50 he was truly a living legend 🥺
😭
His life was ruined long before that. No parents and no one really cared about him, because otherwise he would not be in an institution at 7yrs old. And no OG/homie/friend would have access like that to him at 14 yrs old.
@@b.williams9473 Facts!
Facts!
@@b.williams9473 yeah true. But to add up crack to someones life is something else.
This is why Im scared to smoke anything with ANYONE, because you never know...he was 14..and someone he looked up to did this shit to him.. praying for DMX ❤️🙏🏾
🎯
Had pcp in one of my blunts and I fell twice hit my head on pavement and got a concussion. My tongue swole up so bad I couldnt close my mouth and I had fluod coming out of my left nostril, and from the drugs my heart was beating so fast
When I was 14 my own cousin handed me A blunt with angel dust in it
It messed me up more mentally
I'm scared to smoke OR drink anything
There are sooo many ppl who were messed up by people they trusted, loved and cared for. I have also been a victim of that and through the help of God i was able to forgive and forget in the aspect of not holding it against the person but using my situation and experience to help others. i have come to realize that once you get up in the morning and you breathe the breath of life, is an opportunity for change but we have to make a conscious effort to do so!
WE LOVE YOU X.
We all love him SOO MUCH!!!

I learned more about him in this 10 minutes than anything else I've read or seen over the years.
Rest In Peace, DMX
I see DMX in an interview... I click. Everytime. Even after all these years.
get ready for Monday -- full ep drops.
Me too
@@uproxx BRO WHAT????
Facts
I’m move to tears by that story. Just imagine how many kids like DMX still struggling with the beast of drug addiction.
What a wicked evil thing to do to someone. My uncle did this to my brother when he was about the same age. He’s doing better now after spending over a decade of his life in prison. He knew my mother was sick And paralyzed and yet he did this. I pray for people like this all the time.
For people like that is why I believe in eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. The bible says we don't and shouldn't have control over the others' life, but if the referred person is damaging lives, do we take the same route? I'm an angel in heart, but couldn't stand shit like that. When we understand or try to understand evil and why people do it, it only causes more rage inside. Addicting others to shit, just cuz you are hooked too, or to make money off them, raping, abusing phisically (aggression), everything's related to selfishness and control and only shows weakness in the person. Some say never act in a vengeful act, cuz life takes it's own course, but we also have a shitload of examples where that ain't true and a 'helping hand' would make a good difference. I feel such rage as to the way we're built as a society, that if I could arm myself as a bomb using what I feel as ingredients, I could blow up a whole fucking country. Look out for you and yours, but look out for others too, some people obviously don't deserve shit, but you never lose nothing but time by trying once. Choose the good motherfucking path, yes it's harder, and you might not die rich, but atleast you die happy with what u did with life. Peace to you and yours who deserve it.
May X rest in peace and may his suffering teach even more people than it already did, I really loved him and hoped good for him, man it hurts and at the same time feels weird to miss and feel pain for someone you don't even know, that just means what he did in life meant something important.
@@DarkForceUbz Well Said🙏 Respect 💯

It was his honesty⏪
He was brought through many trials but God blessed him with great talent.
Yes!
Addiction is horrendous. People don’t always understand how much the person wants to stop, but the desire isn’t always enough. Only a lucky few are able to quit and it’s so tragic for those who can’t.
the man had kids he chose crack instead over his kids, you got to ask yourself what is important to you.
It's really awful in X's case since he didn't KNOWINGLY start!...a grown man doing that to a kid is insane.
That's a really messed up story. His mentor was a POS

He is one if my inspirations when times are dark and cold. I got trucked the same way by my best friends and she is still hit and looking tired!!
How could you not love this man DMX, he is powerful ! I love that he can be vulnerable enough to tell his story . He's been through so much pain but I'm glad he's getting through it 🙏
He's always been so raw, so real -- there's a lot of power in that.
“It’s only so much you can block out before you run out of space.” -X
Poor man. His pain his still so deep for him. Keep battling.
He really wanted to stop so many times. His tears are reminiscent of my own when I get off a coke and alcohol bender. Shit is mad wack for real. You tell yourself this is it, I’m fucking done. Next thing you know you haven’t slept in 2 days. You start ignoring everyone because you’re embarrassed and ashamed, but the cycle continues. I feel blessed I have some sort of control right now while my addiction is in it’s early stages. I catch my self all the time fight an urge or telling myself I don’t need any of that shit. I really did have DMX’s albums as a young kid in Chicago. I heard The Great Depression on my Walkman over and over again. It’s dark and hell is hot. Now I’m 27 living in LA, and X is in a coma. Prayers for you Earl Simmons. God will take all your pain away, you have suffered enough brother.

That’s what breaks my heart the most
Yep, so sad.
It’s completely tragic and heartbreaking. 😢💔
Man I feel this hurt
Some ppl don't have that choice parents died and not around where they going to get that love a kid needs 💯
Every time I hear this story, I cry. You can hear the pain...it's excruciatingly hard to hear. He would break down every time he told this story. I just remember him saying, "A monster was born!" DMX thank you for your realness, for being raw, unapologetic, transparent and just real. You may have struggled with your addiction but lyrically you painted a life of Art in how you dealt with life. You were a real MC, not this mess they are doing these days in the rap culture. I will miss your prayers!!! Rest well DMX, Earl Simmons.
❣💯
Painful past... Sadly we live around wolves in sheep's clothing.
Facts!
it is,💯🗣️📣🎯 very sad to hear he passed on. 😢😓😥
Hence why, it is good to be wary at all times and teach young people wrong from right early, so they can't get tricked by bad minds. Unfortunately many people don't have somebody there to guide them through life. But GOD's a Father to all that need a Father, X wasn’t perfect but GOD had him, which is why he lasted this long.
Just when you think you've heard everything about DMX..... he continues peeling off layers. Salute to DMX
He's told this story before. Have you saw when he was on Ilyana fix my life? If not you gotta check that out bro
I’m so sorry this traumatic betrayal done to DMX as a 14 year old boy is just tragic. The fact too that this still affects him to this day just breaks my heart for him. He has had so much abuse and trauma as a child. As a survivor of abuse as a child i know exactly where he’s coming from. I’m so sorry he is gone now . A true man of courage. Love this man. Rip DMX

This is an interview with his mentor Ready Ron.
ua-cam.com/video/pq8MwMQ7XVcA/v-deo.htmlnd
After watching it I don’t think he was trying to get the DMX hooked. I think he was also an addict himself.
A crack addict will sell their child for more crack. You don’t think a crack addict would give crack to a child?
It wouldn’t surprise me if his drug dealer offered him more crack in exchange for bringing the dealer more potential addicts.
Facts!! 💯💯💯
Facts
Exactly. That "mentor" was setting him up for failure...that's fucked up. DMX came up regardless, much respect to X for dedicating himself to hip-hop.
That man ruined his life from 14 years old.so sad.
This hurts so much
I hate him without even knowing him. I imagine someone doing this to a loved one
I was gonna say “DMX turned back into a 14 year old when taking about what happened to him” but that would be wrong. DMX never moved on from being that hurt 14 year old. When we experience something so traumatic at a young age, we often stay that age emotionally. It’s sad and it breaks my heart all over again.
Rest in Power DMX. You are a king and your legacy will forever live on ❤️
“Taking about your problems, is one of the bravest things you can do.”.

This made me cry......that adult really messed up an innocent child....who could have been a great adult without any demons.
I ran into DMX right when he came home, randomly, like a year and half ago in DC at a bowling alley. He (and his security) looked at me, I looked at him...we walked up to each other and embraced. I was more empathetic about his struggle, having just come home and all that he's dealt/dealing with...far more than I was star struck. I appreciate his transparency in this interview. I hope he's keeping thorough cats in his immediate circle.

But it was a lie.
1993, me and my best friend since kindergarten were fresh off a lick and counting up. I had been away in the military for 4 years, returned and jumped right into the streets, At the time I had no clue he had started using cocaine while I was away .He opened the baggie took a blow, then offered it to me. Now I grew up in a household with a parent who became a crackhead and up until that day had never been pressured to indulge. I scooped a small amount into my pinkie nail. Right when my finger reached my nostril my friend punched me in the face harder than I had ever been struck in my 22 years. Then said "If I ever hear of you trying this shit anywhere anytime I'll personally come kill you!!" 28 years later and I've never tried cocaine, heroin, ecstasy,molly, percs, zan's, or nothing else. He's been gone since 97 and all these years later I still thank him for that one day. Rest in paradise to both of them 👑👑

I get what you’re saying but look at it like this... 14 turned into 50. Enough time to do what what he was suppose to do (rap ministry)
One thing I realized as an adult is when it come to compassion it’s like finding money on the ground. That being said I never look for it in people but when it’s received it’s a a blessing. RIP X
“ THE BRAVEST THING U CAN DO, IS LET IT OUT” 💯

I don't think he forgave himself or that man. He carried this pain all his life since 14. My god it's so many mean people in this world. That's why i don't drink or smoke.

Dig deep and find your inner strength. DMX's life doesn't have to be in vain. He told his story, his testimony to help others! You can do it! You have time!
@@kimberlytaylor2725 i appreciate it sir.
I never thought DMX would make me cry. In the past couple months he's made tear up a few times.
Recently I teared up out of happiness hearing him on the track You ain't got shit from the new LOX album. It was really nice to hear his voice, like he was an old friend I hadn't talked to in a long time. Then I watched the video and teared up seeing X just standing by with the LOX and then stepping forward to spit his verse. Been banging that track hard and frequently lately. Tearing up to see and hear DMX back on the scene.
So now DMX has me really crying and not just tearing up and it's outta sheer empathy and sadness for the brother and just one tragic scar from his childhood. I'm just coming down from crying as I type this while it's paused at 4:58 out of the 10:37 video. I haven't even finished the whole thing yet. I just rewound a minute and showed my wife and she was tearing up too. I instantly was reflective and told my wife how much it breaks my heart that children grow up with that kind of an environment and how grateful I've always been to have been blessed with a very sheltered upbringing as a child. I grew up in a Mormon household and didn't see smoking drinking or drugs until I was a teenager going out. I started smoking Ganja at 16 and have been all about herb for 24 years now. Because of that I only ever kicked it with and been tight homies with people that are mainly only smoking herb and occasionaly mushrooms if they doing anything. I'm 40 and I've never even seen anyone shoot up, abuse pills, smoke rock and have only seen people sniff blow twice, once being the one and only time I tried it. I don't like being around people drinking and have avoided bars and alcohol culture. I have had no more than 30-40 alcoholic beverages at the very most in any given year of my life. I’ve never been to an AA or NA meeting and so I've never really seen or heard things like this in person before. I feel like DMX just made me cry with a scared straight kinda vibe, like he's reaching out to the kid in me and telling me to watch out for that kinda stuff and those kinds of people.
As a father of two young children my heart breaks for the brother DMX. I see the hurt young child that is Earl and how and why he became the DMX that we know and love. I cried for Earl and all he trauma he's experienced in his environmental upbringing that no child should ever have to see or experience.
This is full interview is going to be insanely powerful when I hear it in its entirety. This has already been heavy and I still haven't finished watching this 10 minute clip.
Give thanks to Talib Kweli and Jasmine for talking hip hop culture and for talking realness. This interview was healing for me, gonna be healing for plenty of people and most of all I hope it helps DMX heal. I feel like this may have been the most he's ever opened up like this.
To all yall brothers and sisters reading this comment, thank you for your time. Peace, love and understanding to the world. Aloha
I just finished the rest of the clip after typing my first comment and X had me tearing up again. Love and respect to the brother DMX for opening up like he did and sharing his pain and struggle on and off wax.
Wen I heard him on the lox song man I almost cried I loved this man since I was a child never judged him
Your comment is monumental. I don’t even know if you get how on point this is bro. You and the other dude that commented get it. I appreciate dudes cut from a different fabric. DMX was one of my favs since I first heard him
Only a few artists allow u to connect at the part where it hurts. Glad to see him in a good place he means a lot to the world 💯
@@jacobrobsolino5666 facts
X is here for many reasons. I admire him because he goes through tough times and still stands on his faith. LEGENDARY AND MORE THAN A GREAT MC.
Damn seeing DMX open up about how he started his drug addiction is crazy. It’s definitely a learning lesson about smoking weed and your friends.
And something important too. There’s many wolves in sheep’s clothing in this world. Always look at people with suspicion, watch your back all the time and never grow any attachment unless they prove to themselves to not be a snake.
If you don’t see it. Don’t smoke it. Never smoke without watching. Hood rule #1.
@@aprildavis4066 yep. Back when I used to smoke blunts the guys who sold me the bud rolled it for me right in front of me.
Absolutely
He is so genuine.I wished I coulve met him.Hes speaks so clear despite his difficulties.Hes a brotha I respect.He is honest and not shame.He was sooo close to breaking through.Thats tje first step.He was not prideful. True example of humility and seeking help.
This is sad. DMX always real with his emotions. That’s why he is a man of the people.
Yes he is & he is saying that DMX is lying on him....I do believe X, and why wait till after he is dead to say this, dude had years too dispute everything X said....RIP⚘DMX🥺
Facts he kept It real and never cared how people feel 💯
@@roxiedawson6423 because he knew X would confront him if he dared deny while he was alive and around lol coward shit
RIP DMX 😔😢💔 You are more than the demons you faced. You’ve carried a lot of people through their own battles with your songs. Thank you Legend. 😢
That’s the reason why I love X so much , he’s never afraid to show his emotions, he always speaks from his heart and experience Salute King We love you X
The fact that this guy been hooked on drugs almost his whole life & yet in his music he never promoted drug usage & he would tell kids to stay away from drugs & he would actually help people who were drug addict to overcome their drug habits. Even though he was going through those problems he would still help & that's one thing I admired. God bless this man 🙏
If this Man doesn’t touch your heart you ain’t alive. Folks always so quick to say “these are nothing but excuses “. But one fucked up day can really put you on a deadly path. Only a fortunate few make it. We Love You X.
Beautifully put! OUR SUBSCRIBERS ARE THE BEST!
X always seemed like he was tweakin’ and couldn’t relax. We knew he had his battles with substance abuse but I felt like we could all see that battle going on inside him like a tug of war all the time. He is probably the most honest artist in hip hop. 🙏🏾🙏🏽
You think he was high at the time of the interview?
@@maddybru621 I mean I think we all know that it pretty obv, but he was still always trying to rebuke that spirit.
@@maddybru621 Zero doubt. Extremely high but you can see he hates himself for it. The worst part of addiction
@@gabriellemccullough-hanks9644 so sad.
@@dorn1169 he was so troubled my this. I feel bad that he went through so nuch
Dmx is the realest most vulnerable most touching human (not just a rapper) that u have ever seen.
Much respect to you dmx, you changed alotta people for the good.
You ain’t have to suffer no more X, you were an underdog your whole life and still was able to shine and showcase your talents and spirits in your music. Was proud to had a chance to met you in real life, even if was just a brief moment to tell you how much of a big fan I was and salute to you for being a legend in hip-hop. RIP DMX. 🙏🏽
DMX is a real G. Straight real no chaser. Shoutout to him for his honesty. U got to look up to yourself and bet on yourself.
HARDEST RAPPER EVER. Smoked ready,Robbed cats,2xtimes platinum in one year,barked on first single,battled jayz in a pool hall,preached on skits,acted in movies... REAL CHAMP
