You know breh I believe the story. Cause DMX was just like a regular dude.
Years ago in the early 2000s in chicago my little cousin that went to the neighborhood elementary school (he was an 8th grader) by my parents house was talking to me one day. Well he tells me he and his classmates had seen X in the park playing with remote control cars. I laughed the shyt off thinking he is lying.
Then one day I am walking by the same park and what do I see X literally playing with remote control cars in the park with some folks from his crew and kids in the neighborhood. I mean the little kids had him surrounded. It had to have been about 50 kids out there just in awe that X is like playing out there with some of them.
It was like some of the most unique shyt I had seen with a famous person out there with kids and no camera without a care in the world.
Supposedly he would go out there twice a week and just play with his remote control cars or feed the pigeons and squirrels.
Come to find out X had rented a house for like 3 months like 5 blocks from my parents home in the Lincoln Park area. Anyone who knows this area knows it is yuppie ville (which may be the reason he and his crew rented a home out there) very few of the adults knew who he was (but their kids sure did). There were rumors he was out there at the time recording with twista and kelly at Kelly's studio.
