Lets talk about how DMX ran 98 with a ironfist

[Notorioushnic]

DMX should be respected for


1.Killing that bullshyt pop movement started by Puff at the time and bringing hip hop back to the streets.

2.Literally coming up the hardway. He didn't get no deal on some Industry Plant shyt like these nikkas today. X went in and killed features left and right along with battling on the streets.

3. Put out songs for the bytches and didn't softened up his sound.

4. Putting out ANOTHER album titled Flesh of My Flesh Blood of My Blood the same exact year and going #1 .

5. Being possibly one of the best stage performers of all time. I seen this cat perform weeks ago and even though many may talk that shyt about him being a crackhead, None of these new cats can light up a stage like X.

DMX doesn't get enough respect from hip hop fans. Second artist in hip hop history to release 2 albums in the same year and they both went #1 , only other artist to do that was 2pac.

[OfTheCross]

There's nothing to talk about. That solidified his spot in rap history.

Add that to the RuffRyders/RocaFella tour...Backstage DVD, Belly movie...

Dude was a phenom that year

 

[intilectual recipricol]

Was this when he was a side act in the Hard Knock Life Tour?

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

I was just talking about his verse on nikkaz Done Started Something.

It had been a while since I heard that.Forgot how ferocious he snapped on that shyt back then.


Hall Of Fame level type spitting.



That's the thing about X.Some of his work is spotty and comes off gimmicky(whole dog barking shyt) to me.


But then he'll show flashes of brilliance.I'm going to always respect him for "Slipping" and that verse he laid down on nikkaz Done Started Something.

That was the apex of X IMO
