Dog, that's my mans and them!!!

 

[DarkandHellisHot]

Though I have a death wish it ain't been granted yet
So until then I'm gonna be that nikka all up in your chest
Until the lord decides to lay my ass down to rest
Bless my body at the funeral and hope I don't burn

 

[DarkandHellisHot]

23rd anniversay today. a couple songs from this, now hit even more hard





Either let me fly or give me death
Let my soul rest, take my breath
If I don't fly I'ma die anyway
I'ma live on, but I'll be gone any day.


Rest in Power, Earl.

Breh, as someone who didnt really mind the shiny suit era, DMX becoming a huge star had me like

The Dog wasnt on that pretty shyt, and to see him have TWO #1 albums in the same year was incredible

Aged like a fine wine. In my top 3 hip hop albums of all time. Was one of the first hip hop albums I really loved front to back and got me into the darker horrorcore shyt

Had a friend drive me to the mall on our lunch break in high school specifically to buy this on the day it came out. Had to borrow 37 cents from him to afford it. Skipped the rest of the day listening to the album at another friends house.

Good times. Great album.

the fact that this album dropped in the midst of the shiny suit era is amazing. classic.

When that "Get At Me Dog" video dropped.....shyt was a wrap
