Facts you will never see a artist put two albums in one year, and get double platinum , that’s just shows you at the time creativity and story telling arts he had, he very gifted in telling his raps, his bars had meaning to it, his album it’s dark and hell is hot is still my top 3 albums I still bang the full album till this day how good it was

[@theinsightfulvisionary0197]

Yes it does; and I still can't believe that he's gone!!! I used to be a big DMX fan, but I was saddened by his drug use and other issues that he was dealing with; he's a legend that will go down in history!!!

I don't think I've ever seen Sticky so chilled in an interview. Well played Sir.

[@djalpacalypse3841]

I have in other interviews but he's mostly the quiet calm dude and Fredro usually does all the talking. Sticky talks in spurts but has insightful things to say. I honestly think he's a lowkey genius. He picks his words and even his moves correctly. In his other interviews you hear him tell more stories of his life which is incredible. Both of them together are like Red & Meth. They have absolute trust and have each other's back for like 30 years. I can't wait for the BioPic!!! 💯💯💯

But when he featured on Shut em’ down Sticky must’ve thought to himself.. DMX is a problem and i can’t be letting him body me on my own track 💯 DMX‘s verse on Shut em’ down is dope AF 🔥🔥 but Sticky’s verse went harder imo 🔥🔥 R.I.P. DMX ✊🏾
