R.I.P one of the first times I remember seeing X was the ruff Ryder Anthem vid it came on tv and as a little boy I remember being drawn to x unique delivery and ab-libs and the motorcycles. fast forward one summer every one has a "bike" and was rocking the jeans and a A-shirt he wasnt just a legend he was cultural icon.

What I find funny is I see no post by Drizzy, Cole or Kendrick or none of them when I have heard them say X was an influence.


In an interview with Variety, Kendrick Lamar cites DMX’s It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot, Tupac Shakur’s Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory and The Notorious B.I.G.’s Life After Death as the three records that helped him understand how albums are more valuable than an hour’s worth of songs.

Some people process grief and don’t run to the internet. They aren’t obligated to say anything

Rest In Peace X.

exactly. They don’t have to immediately run to social media like females and post every single thing that immediately comes to their brain. We just got the announcement like they did. I’m sure they are reaching out to his industry friends privately since those people were close to him.

My favorite artist of all time.

He shaped me as a teenager that was insecure and gave me the fukk it mentally that I have today

I'm hurting right now but I know he doesn't have to deal with that demon that has been following him around since being so young.

I love you and always respect you

RIP DMX

Above the fray.
Wow, may you find the peace in the afterlife that you couldn't find in this world.
