I remember my friend bringin It’s Dark cassette to school. He let me copy it because my mom didn’t like me listening to that kind of rap. Which I don’t blame her I was only 12. Same thing with Ruff Ryders vol one lol I gave my friend money to pick it up on release day. He came to school the next day with it I was hyped.

"Out with a bang/ you will remember my name"

"I wanted to live forever but this wasn't fame". Damn man, that song is going to hit so different now. Damn. Everybody killed it but X came in at the end and shut that sh!t down.



One of the best song finishers ever..just SMASHED Money Power Respect and 24 Hrs to Live to smithereens.

Facts. He just closes sh!t out flawlessly.

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
X one of the few MCs that if I found out you didn't like him I automatically thought you was a sucka. That's just how much I fukked with him as not only an MC but just an all around authentic nikka. I avoided this thread for days cause it hurt me knowing that this was eventually gonna come. I'm gonna miss Darkman but I will forever love him for the music he provided, which played a large part of my teen and 20s years...shyt even now.
This is how I felt as well.

Damn, officially official now. RIP to DMX. We had a week to prepare for this moment, but how can you really prepare?

Dude single handedly shifted the rap landscape when he dropped. Did the two #1s in one year, all his successes. To do that where he came from tells you what kind of man he was. Had his struggles, which were very public, but they can never take that away from him.

Rest easy DarkMan X. Condolences to his friends and family.

damn man.

bout to run thru his hits.

my favorite song from him will probably always be "Stop Being Greedy."

one of my homeboys from school swore up and down Canibus was gonna be that guy when The Source dropped that extended cover with X, Pun, NORE, Bis etc etc.

he missed the mark on that one! lol

RIP X-Man.

hes like one of them muthafukkas that you feel like you know without knowing them. if that makes any sense.
one of the few rappers that made me LEGIT cry.
we're losing too many Black legends right now.
theres Heaven for you GOD.
