why compare these 2 albums though? they didn't drop the same year. ones a 2nd album the other is the first. one's a mafioso album the other is a dark spiritual album.

i refuse to conform
dmx's it's dark and hell is hot easily

Burning in hell, but don't deserved to be
Got nikkas I don't even know that wanna murder me
It's because they heard of me
And they know that the Dark is for real
The bark is for real, when you see that spark it'll kill
Be poppin, robbin and chill, take it over there bark wit' it
From Ohio to Calito Baltimore back to New York wit' it
Come through flyin', a 129
Up the school street cuz i come through mine
Barking my dogs, get at me nikka
arf arf arf
Get at me nikka
What the deal is, never forget what real is
Them cats that used to say X is the best know he still is
Can't help but feel this, putting goosebumps on your arms
Take you there if you want but I lose chunks with the bomb
Then come for the star
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and it's getting warm
Feel me yo

dmx was great rhyming on this album

I gotta go with Nas on this one. IWW brings back so many memories of a different time in my life. But i had to think about it for a minute. Cause that DMX was on repeat throughout 98-99. But i still bum IWW to this day.
