Rest in Power DMX

[CASHAPP]

Yes I know it was different situations
I was quoting the guy who asked if X’s death was the biggest death in hip hop.
I’m 38 years old and it’s by far Big and Pac.

yes but by far DMX is the biggest death in hip hop SINCE Big and Pac

 

[JackRoss]

Disregard Larry Johnson's theory. I was referring to the video only.

I just talk shyt for no reason. Don't mind me.

 

[broller]

Damn really sad. R.I.P. to him.

 

[xXMASHERXx]

X is my second favorite artist. I've been trying to stay away from this thread cause I didn't want to give any thought to him passing. It sucks. Last year Kobe and this year X. The only thing that makes this a little easier is knowing that he has gone home and is no longer suffering

 

[kej718]

none of these were bigger. DMX was more famous than all three. Outside of America many people don’t know prodigy or big pun

He had 2 number 1 albums the same year.
Music, Movies, he was really doing it.

 

[Dolla$]

Pour out my soul, to control the hurt
Why must Earl Simmons swim in dirt?
I'm gon' make it work, twenty-eight and tryin' to get baptized
Priest scared to touch me 'cause he said I gave him bad vibes

Me as a teen:

 

[93 til]

This hurts. If there was one rapper who could capture my adolescence, it was him.

From:

Cruising with my pops (RIP) as a youngin. X was his favorite rapper
Belly
Cradle 2 the Grave
Romeo Must Die
Def Jam Vandetta

And that was just me as a kid. Revisiting his music as I grew older really added perspective for someone who needed it and appreciated the artistry behind it. The world lost a good one.

Rest In Power

the industry is wreaking havoc on these older rappers’ lives, it has to be the stress- I’m shocked at how sick he looks. Sad. Black Rob sending condolences to DMX - he’s in distress himself.

One thing that gotta be pushed more, is general health. We lost Heavy D, Nate Dogg, Big Pun, and tons of other legends over preventable health issues. That cannot be stressed enough. These 90s rappers still eating like broke college students in their late 40s.

RIP DARKMAN X

it’s about to crazy for the next several months with his ex wife and baby mamas all fighting over her what he has left and royalties

 

[sicksoulja]

RIP X man was a real one

I finally watched Ruff Ryders Chronicles and theM nikkas really came from nothing. I wish Dee and Waah gave him a percentage he deserved though.

This one hurts brehs the dawg was probably my favorite artist ever. Never got a chance to see him perform. I was numb for a whole week after hearing him hospitalized so when he finally went away I was relieved my mans an em was no longer suffering.

X your music will always be remembered!

It wasn't an overdose, definitely.

He was looking healthier than he has been in years and was mentally and spiritually sound.

You don’t know that, maybe in his faith.. yes. You don’t know what he was thinking times by himself or late at night, can’t sleep. the most vulnerable moments for people with vices, struggling with mental health etc is when they’re doing really good that is actually the most dangerous time because you get overly confident and fall back into old habits

“Hang around the barbershop long enough, eventually you’re going to get a haircut.”

 

[Duke Dixon]

I finally started listen to some of X's music and damn man. So many memories to these great songs. I'll definitely miss you DMX, thank you for so many great times R.I.P.

 

[TL15]

Was just thinking how “my name is” by Eminem came out in early 1999 and “what’s my name” came out in late 1999 and crushed the buildings

Did Dmx and Eminem ever have any real beef? I never caught on the what's my name / my name is thing before. I've her that in party up dmx dissed em with "you wack you twisted your girls a hoe the kid aint yours and everybody know but you love your baby mama you'll never let her go."

I don't think they did. They did go to sleep to get her with o IE trice and probably someone that om forgetting right now.
