sometimes, death is merciful. x never seemed like he could find peace or stability. life was beginning to take more than it gave to him. but in the middle of that, he put together one of the greatest album runs in history and instead of just party and bullshyt, he sold millions of records with real lyrical content about real things. now there are millions of people who deal with their own traumas with even more clarity because somebody more articulate than them put it on wax.

RIP to one of the best to ever do it.

I've been avoiding these X threads b/c I didn't want to believe he was on his last :to: X had all us kids in the city rolling deep on our bikes trying to be like Ruff Ryders. He put his ALL into every song he did. Anything you were feeling, X had something for it. Dude was a very, very, rare breed and there's never gonna be another like him. RIP Dark Man X.

fukked up my day. Going to have his music blasting all weekend. Lost my younger brother to an OD in 2013. Saw him on a Saturday, he OD'd two days later. Life support for another two days before they took him off due to no brain activity. I feel for his family as they stood there watching him in the hospital. Wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Gone too soon. RIP to one of the GOATs!

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

Rest In Peace X.
Yeah that shyt has always been weird to me. People think everything has to be posted. Like when I had family die I had other family mad at me for not posting about it on facebook as if that meant I didn't care.

Anyway RIP DMX and I just feel for his family. I know the struggles of having a loved when fighting demons and how much of a mental struggle it is.
