RIP X. In 2006 I was homeless at the age of 22....I had an mp3 player with the song Slippin on repeat. It was just me , God and X at 3 in the morning. I will forever have a connection with X. I hope God grants you heaven my brother.
U don’t know nothing sir jay z made sure x got all his money from def jam when they were refusing to pay him and jay the one who got him the meeting with puff daddy even tho X didn’t sign jay did get him in the room and jay z was in dmx video what’s my name
False. Jay made sure X was good and his family ate. Jay took care 9f most of the old school guys on Def Jam including LL Cool J. They were actually beefing at Def Jam, because LL felt Jay wasn't a good fit as President of the Label. Jay still negotiated for LL Masters and got him for the GOAT. Internet can create false narratives, but I've witnessed this im my lifetime.
Ya'll must be young or forgot how Jay ran Def Jam. DMX career took a lot of licks during that time because of piss poor support from the record company. What you are saying is true however this happened before his death.
@@xgnofearzthe10thgenlegend82that’s BS yall can’t def was outside or avid fans to say this Jay-Z didn’t take over def jam till like 05 when DMX style was played out and he was a full blown addict at that point
Dmx is a certified star in hip hop. As matter of fact he is hip hop. I remember as a teen in Middle school going on long walks to downtown San Antonio. Before smart phone. Just me and my Ipod. They barely came out. Not the phones. Just hearing that song i can feel it.. and i remember looking out my window when i couldn't sleep around 1 am knowing i had to go to school. Listen to let me fly. One of my favorite songs from dmx is Angel
“I bless a ni**a with stitches, the thin type with a straight razor that put pin-stripes across your windpipe.” 😮🔥🔥🔥 That’s how DMX finished that freestyle. He was cold with it!
Yup off Drag-On album "The Opposite of H2O" ALBUM WAS FIRE!! Drag was just overshadowed by so many big acts under Ruff Ryders at the time...@@dicedadude
X over jay any day of the week the tours they went on together people were there for X nothing against jay but he’s not fucking with the dog RIP to a legend
So why was jay selling out arenas before c came on tour sir why you just can not appreciate the fact that two people were just as impactful jay z sold out Madison square garden twice only full hip hop act to ever do that run dmc did but they had aero smith on tour with them
Dmx made the simplest things 🔥 because it had a deeper meaning behind what he was saying an when he did come up with an obvious fire line it hit hard AF aswell
@@thebakery3996 wrong, a Cypher is a group of rappers showing their skills INDIVIDUALLY, has nothing to do with who is better than who, although others may say who they think had the best bars, but technically still no where near a battle
To me that was the golden era of hip hop because Dmx and Jay z was going back and forth dropping solo albums it was a race between the rap legends of who could put the most albums out
His catalogue sir, it’s hit after hit. Undoubtedly there are always better artists, they just don’t have the star power/industry backing-maybe not willing to bend over & play the industry game.
“Best” album was reasonable doubt. And by best I mean most relatable to the hood. But Nas was better. X was better, Jada would destroy Jay. Andre 3000 would and has plenty of hits. Rakim…Eminem (yea I said it)….I mean I could keep going but ya get my point. Jay was dope but not the goat.
Cassidy is really a student of the game. Honestly he has always been a top level elite lyricist, all while keeping super true to battle rap roots and schemes, but his next level knowledge of every thing is grew up listening to.
The Dean Brothers and Swiss Beat's Pop's are brothers! They were both in the N.O.I under Hon Elijah Muhammad. The Dean Brothers started the Ruff Ryders label which DMX was sign to!😊
X showed love 2 everybody who was authentic Jay only showed love if he could benefit off u or thought u was less then him jay scared of competition that's y nas will 4 ever be better an more respected the Jay ever will RIP X
X always. Because X stayed grounded with the people and was all about the people. Irv Gotti said it once to Jay-Z when he and Ruff Ryders were just starting up: Who look more and move like the people in the hood? I know a whole lotta people who are out there robbin' , brawlin', survivin'. There ain't a whole lot of people flossin' like you Jay. X is for the people!!!
DMX has turned into an underrated rapper. Just shows you what the media can do to ruin someone’s career. They highlighted all of his issues instead of praising his achievements and made him a parody. Real ones know what DMX did from 97-03.

That Was BackStage @ Summer Jam In NY.... EveryBody Know X Handed Hov A Big L Here..... RespectFully. THIS Battle Was Judge More Of A Cipher And Definitely Went Down In The History Books As One Of The Best. New Yorks Finest Both Hungry An On The Come Up. IT DONT GET No Better Then That 💯!! Legends @ Their Craft!
It was the Hard Knock Life X Rough Ryder Tour on that Backstage DVD. The person who really won the battle between X and Jay was the Muslim who flowed third. He beat both of them. #FACTS
DMX was a monster. A legend. Jay could never reach X’s level. The only thing Jay could do was do dirty to get to a higher and powerful financial level.
1 That footage is from hard knock life tour and it was not a battle. 2 Cass was talking about the battle 10 years before that when they were rapping standing on a pool table. That's why he mentioned the fast flow even though Jay wasn't rapping fast.
We Love You X!!! You think you know your favorite rapper, you think you know their highs and lows when in all honesty you don't know nothing about your favorite rapper. DMX is the only rapper who gave us a clear window to his soul, we know his UPS we know his downs we know his happy moments and we know his saddest moments, and it didn't take TMZ, it didn't take somebody trying to expose the DMs for us to know the true DMX. He gave it to us every single freaking song and for that he is a G.O.A.T
That smile that Cassidy had when the interviewer asked if he seen that battle...and Cass was like " Yeah" you could tell that he was gonna say X💯🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😳
This why ppl respect rappers back then more. Most of them came up battling so their iron was always sharpe and they evolve into their own style! Theres no originality in 90% of rappers today
Honestly it's a metter of preference. I prefer Jays style more especially at that time. He always made rap look effortless. That's such a hard thing to do. X is pure energy you feel every word he says. Jay's style is like water and X was like fire.
I remember the first time I heard DMX album. Sample from the Movie Native Son. doong doong, doong doong, doong doong doong doong 1212… Man, it was so hard and got harder as it went on.
