Rest in Peace DMX April 9th, 2021

[Apollo Creed]

just suddenly started feeling sad..

this morning i saw a ambulance at an old folks home. i started thinking how this was just another normal friday morning for me but for some dude it was his last.

treasure each moment guys.

yeah i was just chilling last night washing clothes and eating dinner and just got sad as hell

 

[TheDarceKnight]

He does say that. I’ve heard the full unedited version with that part unedited as well.

Nah I heard the version where he said “look how that rock got em”. It def exist.

Have we found some new shyt for the Mandela effect?

Have we found some new shyt for the Mandela effect?

Not at all. My wife sings the original all the time when the part comes up. shyt was floating around with terrible cd quality for a minute.

 

[Ripp]

one thing i don't like about this situation is too much detectective work going on from casual fans. Nothing wrong with being a casual fan of something, gaining info and looking at something in a new light.. but nikkas in here finding out and analyzing shyt that we already knew...

"But but the drugs"
"He kept going back to jail"
"He should've gotten his life together a long time ago"
"The people in his corner...if they really loved/fukked with him"

From what I see in the thread the day 1 nikkas aren't even commenting on this shyt because its already known. X gonna be X love him or leave him. Its unfortunate but no amount of logic and point of view spins on the situation is gonna make it what you think it should be..

Yes sir. I got it on my phone.. all the old unreleased x shyt i ripped with a youtube Downloader.

Thank you!!

I thought I was crazy. I listened to the explicit version this week and when he didn’t say rock got him I went
I knew he said that shyt somewhere

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

From my experience. nikkas that aint ever been through nothin or have limited life experience talk and think like that cat does.

He's an ignorant youngin looking to validate his untested real world ego and arrogance by provoking conflicts on the internet. Hence the unnecessary provocative statements in so many of his posts.

Those types are a dime a dozen and as see through as a glass window.

 

[NormanConnors]

Body is still warm. I get it but It’s all hard bro. I feel you. At the same time I think Sean Price and Prodigy were horrible. All of this is too much.

Its still difficult for me to listen to these fellas music, can only do so in dosages.

This thread turning into an athiest vs religious folk thread?

By that I mean the athiest Godless weirdos are all up in here talking a bunch of nonsense?

Get these bum ass posters outta this thread

Bunch of soulless heathens.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Whether you believe or not, why push your beliefs on others? That’s they personal choice. This is a thread dedicated to DMX, all the other soliloquies are pointless.

 

[YoNoSe]

X will forever be the greatest.

I remember being a kid in nyc and hearing his music. It was rugged, raw, truthful, full of emotion and unapologetic.

X was like an unofficial uncle to me and I wanted to be just like him.

Wishing the best for him and his family.

 

[Po pimp]

Was just listening to the uncensored version of Slippin and it occurred to me once the third verse started that while the curse words aren’t edited out they still chose to censor one part of the song, and it made me wonder if maybe things would have been different if the people around him were more concerned about him getting the help he needed and less concerned about the public finding out about what kind of addiction he struggled with. If that stigma and shame wasn't associated with his open secret and he was able to talk about it openly maybe he would have felt comfortable or confident enough to seek treatment earlier in his career. When you look at that song it’s his most open and personal song he had released at that point and the line that really gives insight to the causation of the chaos that he would become mixed up in is censored smh. And if you track it throughout the rest of his career it’s always been this known secret that’s kinda whispered about but never directly addressed and he never really sought professional help for that particular demon until it was mandated by the courts. I dunno, I guess I’m just “what iffing” and shyt but the line and it remaining censored on the explicit version just had me thinking about that.

3:18

I have a version of Slippin saved where that part isn’t bleeped out. It doesn’t really have much singing on the track either.

 

[klientel]

damn the booth version of this thread is trash....yall in hear arguing about religion

Funny how the athiests are always the ones pushing their agenda.

 

[Rekkapryde]

30 minutes without oxygen to the brain before they found him?

Dunno what they waiting on... let X go in peace.
