One of the hardest parts of this is how human DMX presented himself. Through all the tough hood shit he’s been through and with all of the success, he never presented himself as anything but a person with real human emotions and he seemed to always be trying to better himself. This one fucking hurts man

[@GMAV3RICK]

You worded it perfectly! This is exactly why it hurts so much, he was human and was very genuine and down to earth.

[@kevinbolger3488]

The moments like him singing Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and him tending to his orchids are so genuine and it’s sad that his family, friends and fans won’t be able to experience more of those moments.

[@kevinbolger3488]

And I know his son and him had a strained relationship but I remember X tried to make things right after years of trials and tribulations. His son was telling him he hates him and this man was pleading to be in his life. I know his son will feel the weight of this and my heart goes out for him

[@Missbrittanyxxo]

@@kevinbolger3488 Exactly! I agree 100%. The orchids one with him tending to his flowers is so pure to me. He really went through so much & came out much more stronger afterwards. I hope his soul can rests eternally knowing that he was truly loved by millions, his impact on our lives is legendary.

Hadn’t thought about it like that, hell yeah that makes me happy. I remember when I was in 8th grade our schools athletes took a yellow school bus to a larger city to get our sports physicals done for the year(it had to be 107 degrees in that thing) . Nobody had a boom box, the coach didn’t know how to work the radio; but this one kid named Ramon Reyes knew every word to this song, and the rest of the guys on the bus knew how to say, “WHAT, and hit that chorus line.” I was a 110 pound skinny white kid from south ga, I mean I was going to get my physical to play on the golf team, LOL! I had NO clue who DMX was, needless to say after that bus ride I definitely identified with the ruff ryders! I’ll never forget that moment in time, pretty special memory! I literally had to buy my dmx CDs and put them in a Garth Brooks or George Strait case you get them past my mother who apparently identified with Nazi germany! But she could not stop my admiration for DMX, Ludacris, Bone Thugs. But this guy right here popped my Hip Hop cherry! Thanks DMX, rest easy and I’ll never forget the coolest bus ride of my life!

Completely agree.

Couldn´t agree more. I started with Rap and moved to Metal and Hard Rock but every once in a while i went back to DMX. Was lucky enough to see his energy live - real legend. Rest in Peace

[@hiphoprbloverjon9180]

It's because of his hardcore aesthetic and raw energy. A lot of metalheads always messed with NWA, Mobb Deep, Onyx, and DMX.

[@andymanson3836]

Nah, it just goes to show that metalheads listen to a lot more than metal. Metal's my main genre, but I listen to different kinds of music rather frequently. Especially rap. Mobb Deep, Eazy-E (and NWA in general), Tech N9ne, Busta Rhymes, etc. Are a few of my all-time favorites. But anyways, what X gave out was not only what hip hop/rap fans wanted, but also metalheads and other genres.

Lets be real, half of the recent comments have maybe heard one of his songs ever and now since he died he is like one of their top five....

Like fr, the fake love just ruins the artist and makes actual fans look bad

[@kwasibruce]

@@jacksonh2083 death of any person is hard to deal with. For musicians who tragically pass away, they get new fans after those people, most of them have never heard of, hear their music for the first and appreciate the talent that those musicians had while alive. Some of those new fans go on to become permanent; they go on to buy their music, stream music or buy their merch. Sad thing is, the artist will be gone but his or her estate will enjoy the rewards for a long time.

[@jacksonh2083]

@@kwasibruce That is true, but they force themselves to listen due to the artists death. Some even cry over artists they didn’t really like, but then after they die that artist is one of their favorites. Legit it is just disrespectful to the artist and their actual fans.

I'm a 35 year old white guy who grew up in the suburbs in PA. I was 13 when this album came out. I was bullied through all of middle school and high school by my "friends". I had one friend who made me a cassette tape of this album. We got a lot of snow in PA that winter and I listened to this album over and over while shoveling snow. X was the tough guy I wanted to be so badly, but he really was so poetic and seemed so gifted. This album got me through so many tough times. Now, all of these years later I have a wonderful wife, a good paying job, and a beautiful new baby all in a new house. Thank you so much X, I'm truly praying for you. EDIT: Wow, I never expected so many people to comment on this. I am truly heartbroken today. I'm proudly wearing my old Ruff Ryders T-shirt and sitting in disbelief. I always told myself I would one day meet Earl maybe at a signing and thank him for everything. I'm sad to know I'll never do that. It's weird when you cry over someone you've never met. It's raining here today in PA. I think God will was ready to bring you home. I'll see you some day X, and I promise I'll tell you how much everyone back on Earth misses you. This really hurts.

stop trying to validate him by including that you’re white

@@BaAZiGar dude stop being racist. He’s just sharing his story.

[@jahness6011]

@@BaAZiGar what do you expect him to say in racially obsessed America? I'm black and was never raised on rap music, and by saying that most black Americans would say that I'm whitewashed. I'm of a different nationality. We have our own genre of music, but my grandmother preferred country music.

The only rapper to drop 2 albums the same year and both went multi platnium. Like many of us older cats he was our childhood. This one hurts. Thankyou X, for giving a kid who went thru hell at that time an outlet to escape from all around me. Hours upon hours with my headphones on blasting listening. Relax in paradise dog. 🙏
