Since DMX name came up... that second verse on "Some X shyt" is legendary

[spliz]

His first verse on that song is one of my favorites from him

"I want Monopoly money but I ain't even halfway there
'Cause doin' dirt, a nikka got to take the back way there
What it is, is the biz and it's dirty
You'll get rich but life expectancy is about thirty
Place of business is the hallways, I've been up for four days
On parole with warrants that'll send me back to Rahway
If I get caught across Jersey state lines
Figure this '98 and I been runnin' since '89
So that's like nine years delinquent time, you speak in crime then you know
Nine years you owe, get knocked, nine years you gonna go
No probation or parole more time doin' nothin'
Day room to the yard, writin' rhymes and frontin
Carry nikkas greasy because I'm built like that
Bury nikkas easy 'cause they get killed like that
If you ain't in it wit me then you in my way, but either or
You will respect mine and leave Tec-9 and leave it for dude
The realest you gonna feel is when you face your death
"Sorry, I didn't know" nikka, don't even waste your breath
Coppin' pleas not D why you flippin'
nikka know the only thing I'm really scared of is slippin'
Lettin' a nikka catch you when I got my guard down, so I keep 'em up
Noddin' off with one eye open, I can freak it
But there's gonna be a time when I close 'em both
Lead poisonin', I'm a get hit with an overdose
Over those drug things, crud things
Think I don't know my slug stains, or blood blaze
Raw gun playin' drama, sadness to another nikkas momma
I'mma be the the one that puts you up inside shock trauma
These are troublesome times and the crimes prevail
And the dark side keep a nikka's ass in jail
Bada-boom, bada-bing, some of this and some of that
I gots to boogie for a minute but you know I'm comin' back"

ANYONE who says X ain’t a lyricist is a fukkin fool. Especially in his prime. Period. I don’t even wanna hear what they gotta say. And as far as the OP Some X shyt has one of my fav lines in hip hop.
“ I knew what I been doin, everyday that I been doin it, just seeing nikkas having a good time, so imma ruin it..”. Lol

 

[UserNameless]

X would body Banks . Then AND now .

 

[I'm Blackman]

X snapped! nikkas better put some respeck on Earl name.

I remember when i first heard this shyt! X killed it, but that Swizz beat shyt made me want to be a producer.

 

[BlackMajik]

The original version of that verse is even better>>>>>

Like I said in the Lloyd Banks thread with the extreme DMX slander: he's one of the best lyricists from his era.

"Them nikkas did it raw, with no condom
You find em, sayin sorry he for what he said before I blind them
Get the flame out the four fifth, and there ain't gonna be no more riff
Dog you on the floor stiff, but would of made it to the door if
Bullets traveled alot slower, and you ran alot faster
But they don't and you can't so don't think about after
Cause tomorrow ain't comin, so stop runnin
Cause you gonna die like a sucker...
Murder Motherf**ker!!!"





Darkman said you woulda made it to the door if bullets traveled alot slower and you ran alot faster...but them bullets don't, and you can't, so don't think about after


Prime X maaaaaan...

That's literally my favorite X line of all time lmaoooo

"fukk you and fukk your man, both y'all nikkas is puss
Frontin like you out the Jungle but ain't never seen a Bush"

And facts, X was a superb yricist.

Prime X maaaaaan...

This the shyt I be sayin. I feel like me and @FreshAIG the biggest X fans on this site and always have to argue on his behalf. Lol

That's why I get into so many "arguments" on this site. Cause it's fukking Bizarro World or the Twilight Zone sometimes. I literally don't understand these dudes definition of lyricism and as much as I fukk with Lloyd Banks he'd get toasted on a track with prime DMX. Late 90s to early 2000s DMX was literally a game changer. He was beasting on tracks.

 

[Taadow]

Sheeit, THE WHOLE SONG a classic.


“If I thought half the chit these bytches said was true,
I’d be spittin’ lead at you, to dead your crew...
But IF YOU KNOW A BYTCH,
YOU DON’T LISTEN TO THAT BYTCH,
YOU DON’T ARGUE WITH THAT BYTCH,
ALL YOU DO IS FUCC THAT BYTCH!!”

 

[The Dust King]

this shyt shouldve been on his debut its top 5 X. the voice switchin is retarded and jus adds to the theme

these was some other X joints from other albums i was big on

DJ CLUE


FUNK FLEX


THE MURDERERS


JD / THE MAD RAPPER

 

[DarkandHellisHot]

I'm peeling nikkas caps like oranges
Hit 'em in the head with two-by-four inches
I'm a grimy nikka so I like my bytches cruddy
My clothes dirty, dikk shytty, and my knife bloody
I did too much dirt to turn back now
I'm the reason my lil' sister smoking crack now
I'd feel guilty if I had a heart, but I don't
Could live a carefree life if I stop killing, but I won't
It's in my blood to destroy mankind
With every murder, I lose a little more of my damn mind
And I ain't got much left to lose, nikka
So don't snooze nikka, I'm killing crews, nikka (Hey!)
Just pay your dues, nikka, respect my motherfukking style
Or I'll murder your wife and your unborn child
This ain't wild just how nikkas living on the street
A little something that can't be beat

 

[DarkandHellisHot]

My memory slipping..

I actually taped this... If I remember this Woodstock aired on ppv and I had a bootleg box..

Been awhile since I seen it..

I pretty much play this at least 2 times a week tojust to good, my man x kill this from the beginning to the end

[Take It In Blood]
