Rest in Peace DMX April 9th, 2021

[Theo Penn]

Doesn’t look good.

The man was a tortured soul. If this is it, at least he can finally be at peace

 

[H. Selassie]

Praying hard for X right now

There was a video posted on here in like 2013 (maybe?) of X and his son talking and getting to know one another and then once his son asked him to get clean and stop using drugs, X totally ended the convo. Done. Even said, "I'll see you at my funeral." That's when I knew he would never stop. Sad too, because in 1998, when everyone here in TN was bumping Master P, I was on a DMX kick. Breh blessed us in the late 90's and early 00's. Even his lesser albums had a few bangers and classics on them. shyts frustrating. Addiction is hell.

Breh that's the show that me and my wife always talk about concerning X's problems. It was jokes because lolz, but sadly this was a grim reality of how demonic addiction truly is. It takes your soul to new depths of hell and make you do and say things that you would normally never do. We saw X's gut and thought dude was going to redeem himself, but sadly the invisible friend of depression and vices never left his side. No matter how much dude seem like his was on cloud 9 and feeling alive again, he never fully escape those vices and sadly those vices became his entire tomb

It seemed like he was doing great during the Verzuz battle with Snoop and finally got his life straightened out

Really hope he pulls through

maybe it is time for X to pass on and not have to suffer anymore. For most of us, our last time seeing X was on Verzuz with Snoop having a ball.


I'll wait til it's final to reminisce more.

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

X is that dude!!!

I hope he pulls through but also leaves the junk once he back

Prayers for X. Sad this isn't super unexpected given his history but it still hurts to read and see it happen. If he does pull through, hopefully this is the catalyst for him getting clean but this doesn't look good unfortunately

 

[King Poetic]

Hope he pulls through for his children sake

 

[DAT NICCA KELSO]

sad to hear. Thought his new album was gonna bring him back to the forefront unlike his non Def Jam albums. Like others have said he looked happy and in a good state in the Drink Champs interview.

Prays to him his fam and kids

 

[NoHalfWay]
