[@kh7688]

Brilliantly put. Both men stand alone, they are equally seminal to the history of Hip-Hop. Yes they had parallels in their life. The impact they had, the respect and the power in their words. However, both men are so distinct from one another. It's actually a disservice to say X is the new Pac. X was gonna be a legend regardless as was Pac. They were both destined for greatness. Icons of the culture. Their legacies will live on through those of us that love them. As long as I'm alive, I will talk about them in the highest regard. I will forever play their music.

His comback album wasn't all that succesful but still debuted in the top 20, and coming back after 6 quiet years isn't easy. It's just that his childhood was so messed up, and the fact that one of his family members laced a blunt with crack and gave it to him has led to his addictions and the downfall of DMX the man.

Ok so here's the deal. I grew up in the era when DMX started dropping these albums. Back then we didn't social media and all that stuff that is giving a crap load of exposure to artists. We depended on actually buying albums with saved up money or most depended on parents/guardians purchasing it for us. Artists really depended on actual talent to be promoted. Most of his singles that didn't make it to the very top was due to this. With all the technology and access we have (internet/phones/downloads/online purchases), artists are exposed like crazy. That was not the case early 2000's. Some of the singles that make it to the very top aren't even that good. Most are promoted by young viewers that help artists make it big. It's all about access to your viewers that helps you get big.

I love DMX but his life has been fucked my mental illness, drugs, demons, people and himself. Not some entity placing barriers in his way.

[@UNKNOWN2009]

bobdigi88 he made music that preached Christ, that is when the industry messed him up. Member Kat Williams? He put out the industry and became crazy. Member Kayne West a Christian? He vanished for a month or so while the press claimed he was sick then he fell off.

[@bobdigi88]

Visionary Sequel yeah the industry hate Christians lol. I have a bridge for sale if you're interested?

[@UNKNOWN2009]

bobdigi88 I don't see nothing funny about it. No thanks I'll have my Trump wall block you from migrating over your bridge.

I never like that Jay-Z, any way

[@torianmcneill3794]

Nas got him on either

[@stahoo46]

My opinion of course only an opinion JZ is a lyrical genius but I don’t think his style and flow matched it it’s a shame what happened to D for real. But he still the man in my book

[@orielsy]

The reason his singles weren't charting high is because it was just the hood supporting him (mostly).

[@mikeandmars2345]

Orielsy Diaz 💯💯💯

[@matthewbond375]

It wasn't just the hood supporting X, unless by the hood, you mean poor people in general haha :0D DMX was for the hood, from the hood, but was definitely heard and loved outside of the hood. This man can light a fire under anybody's ass, and get them up. He's troubled? Who isn't? If you're real, your mind will be troubled from what you've been through. I love DMX. He's real as fuck, and you don't have to be where he's from to know he's legit.

Too many DMX songs underrated and did not get the credit he or his singles deserved!

[@OfficialChrissums]

DMX could make you feel the full range of human emotion without ever having to be soft or tender about it. Not that he couldnt or shouldnt do that, but the fact that he could move me to tears while growling says a lot about how good his writing is.

[@BlackZynfyndel]

Man those DMX Vs. Canibus mixtapes were the ISH on the JCSU campus back in 98.

[@actualmc4078]

Rai Gresham I still got my cassette tape of Canibus vs DMX mixtape, and still plays perfect!!!!!

[@BlackZynfyndel]

Actual Mc I never even saw a tape of that back in the day man! Guy that introduced me to it had it on CD and he almost got got for that. I did have the “Get At Me Dog” single that they show in this video though.

[@actualmc4078]

Rai Gresham yeah I lucked up on it,because the guy who sold it to me,was selling CANIBUS VS RZA also & I had to choose between them both, and I only had $8.00 on me at the time, and I asked him to hold it for me until next week,when I got paid & next week came and he had sold out all of the copies & I never saw it again until recently on a mixtape website!!!!

Yeah,both were and still pure savage

[@empress2536]

I agree. Even post mortem they are exploiting him and cashing in on his brand. Everybody wants a piece of him. Sad to say, they took advantage of him. Because of his addictions and drug issues, gold digging women and fake friends were able to leach on to him. If it wasn't for all of those mental and emotional issues along with the childhood trauma, DMX would have never allowed people to take advantage of him. He would have still been with his wife and family because he never would have hurt Tashera if he was in his right mind.

[@MrGarcia114]

Rip DMX had to come back and watch this again

[@joshdevine5874]

Just shows no matter what you are struggling with in life. As long as you don't give up then you will fall into a bit of success. DMX wasn't a stage clown like most music artist are. He made music that you always remember

[@javianjohnson8746]

DMX was a staple in my childhood during the 2000s man. My mom played Party Up and Stop Being Greedy a lot lol. Sad that addiction doesn't discriminate no matter HOW much worldwide popularity you have

[@Gensosan]

His flow is still unbeatable! There is so much power in his verses! 100% agree with you, bro! Thx for the video!

[@majoeonline01]

My love for him is unconditional, the first wallpaper I ever placed on my room wall was DMX. Though I was a devoted Christian I never stopped listening to his music. I pray you come out clean and unite with your family. "You know I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up" You gonna get up Dawg. 😍

[@jeremydiesel7805]

I wanna hear one more X album completely sober and focused he deserves one last go at glory it's DMX he sold out Woodstock in 1999 by himself he had so many hits dude is one of few guys from the 90's we genuinely care about. It's sad he got on drugs and fell off but he can get back on cause I think X deserves a 2nd chance no guy can get you hype, make you sad, make you think and inspire you in the same album he's amazing. He was a gangster that had prayers on his albums come on now give this guy another shot. If X gets his life together I'll get be here for it I hope he gets to smell the roses while he's here so we don't have dick ride him when he's dead wishing we appreciated him more fuck that celebrate him while he here.

[@MalrickEQ2]

Lol, on drugs, what? He is a devout Christian.

[@rankiesacs]

Judge not; less you be judged first. X got me closer to god and I pray he feels how much collective love is really out there from the real that recognize. I did judge mofos that made fun of DMX and judged him as less than human, or a crack head clown and still do. Those mofos are still pointing the finga, probably at Kanye now, and still ain't got shit, or a personality for that matter. Wangsters are too dumb to recognize how such a little guy from the gutter of NYC where CREAM was the motto and shots rang a lot more than now because because the rent was too damn high and people with families were desperate. Dude pretty much raised himself in that jungle and created the poetry, art, therapy, and CREAM that is remarkable and a mark of genius. I don't care if he smokes crack he still on Mt. RUSHMORE of Real Hip Hop with Pac, Big, and Face. Haters need to find something else to do and maybe the collective love can ring though and bring em back to unleash the beast within. Face still lays it down and although their styles are nothing alike; I would love to see that tour.
