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.
@@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.
"I will always have a drug problem. Just because you stop getting high doesn't mean you don't have a problem because it's a constant fight everyday," RIP X
I used to be an addict on sum harder things like x but I got off em an only use medical marijuana stuff now an its works for me but took a lot of courage to say that online man I understand been 1 1/2 yrs off bad stuff but I want it everyday never goes away hard battle
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
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.
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
@@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.

Last night our household paid tribute to you, X. Played your albums straight through - no skips. You’re someone that understood pain and sorrow. The hip hop community just lost a father. RIP X
I'm a 63 year old white guy, I remember seeing this video on Canadian Much Music. I remember being blown away at the raw energy of the sound. My son & I are mourning the loss of Earl. He was so talented, but like alot of us, including me, made some bad choices. Right now, in heaven, Jesus is listening to DMX, Tupac & Biggie jam..R.I.P. Earl..😔😔
@@jameswhipple5658 Don't ever apologize for saying you're white, people these days want to hate everything white and it's become disgusting. You tried to send a message of unity and that didn't fit in with his "hate everything white" agenda so he had to be negative to you.
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!
rest in power??? gimme a break the dude told you all hell is very dark... he knew exactly what he was doing and he told you too. Receive a love of the truth and the salvation of Jesus Christ.... this is no way to go.... this man leads directly to hell.
@@inTruthbyGrace he literally would read the bible to groupies back stage. He was a witness to more people than you ever have. You're some couch potatoe christian that's going to hell for how you judge people and what's funny is you won't even know til you're there.

No comparison. X is great but Tupac is iconic. It's like comparing Tyson and Ali. One dark and ruthless, the other a legendary wordsmith and artist with political motivation.
To think DMX wrote this song in less than 15 minutes and didn’t fuck with it because the simple rhyming patterns and repetitive beat. He wrote three other bangers the same night for his #1 album. Legend Rest in peace DMX ❤️❤️
In 98’ This man dropped two albums because he was literally on fire..Collectively he sold 9 million albums in one year! His impact was legendary...You will never see numbers like that again.. R.I.P. To a Legend !
If you came from nothing, was aggressive, internalized anger, had trouble articulating yourself, and was socially awkward DMX was the visual to let you know that you can still make it and be yourself. Thank you DMX.. You can rest now
Notice how all of DMX's songs have 3 verses? Nowadays rappers can barely come up with 2 verses much less 3. This man had endless bars. RIP to a lyrical genius.
I think that’s more of a shift in musical marketing and standards. But yea I don’t get how he was able to bring such a flow and combine them with lyrical lines like that and still sound on beat and a keen to the tone of the video and song. Iv always wondered that.
I wish youngsters could experience what we did when summer jams like this came out... The hype, real hip-hop radio play, and word of mouth before everyone had Internet
@@honeybdream im not denying his talent, to say hes the greatest of all time? thats a whole other ball of wax. Great for sure, but greatest? not even close.
They now say he isn't gonna come back from this.. the OD..heart attack..and lack of Oxygen for 30 mins.. he is braindead.. how fucking sad!!! Just hope he doesnt suffer.
@@sace1608 Shut up you troll. DMX helped a lot of people. There are many stories of him helping people on his own volition. Jesus said to not judge, as you will judged accordingly. As a "Christian" you should pray for his soul and the souls of everyone and never, ever, wish perdition on the children of God.
Never listened to dmx because of the two songs that got thrashed on the radio just discovered his albums in the last month, the man was a genius lyricist. Wish I had of seen him alive he speaks pure honesty
Completely agree. Look, the best rock/metal/punk bands are all about intensity, honest to their aproach; whether its 70's Aerosmith, 80s hard core punk; up to more recent bands like Lamb of God and Gojira. DMX was real, aggresive; true to himself and whomever appreciates his craft, his delivery. Legend.
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
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.
DMX 72 yrs Black mother & grandmother my older son and favorite nephew introduced me DMX WHEN this first drop on BET and I been his no 1 fan there will be another DMX AND TUPAC ❤
To escape domestic abuse, he spent a lot of time as a child on the streets of New York at night and found security with stray dogs. Wounds that you suffered as a child are hard to forget. I will never forget you. R.I.P. brother. Thanks for your music.

European Metalhead here - love to y'all here paying respect to DMX. Rest in Piece and thank you for your service to music . You will be missed no matter the genre, color or age. May your soul rest and your family recover from the loss.
Prayers to X. Sad that he was tormented by demons that wouldn’t let up. Addiction is a heinous illness that never ever stops trying to take you out. It’s death on an installment plan. I pray he makes it thru and can be himself again. Dude was part of the soundtrack to my life and especially the years I was growing up.
This video alone was responsible for many young kids in Russia buying huge baggy pants, big boots and xxl t-shirts 20 years ago. Speedy recovery DMX. Edit: R.I.P. DMX :(
For some reason it makes me feel better I don't believe in hell he is in a better place where you don't need drugs everything is so Crystal Clear it's the best feeling you could ever imagine that's what I believe what happens when you die so I think he's good it's us that are stuck with emotions but yeah makes me happier listening to certain DMX songs
DMX died from the Covid19 vaccine. The fake news media is spreading lies that DMX OD'd . The family says this is FALSE. He took the vaccine and within days he was in a Coma.

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. 🙏
@@tonyberry3254 yo for real fam.his first 3 albums alone sold close to 30 million records. This one hurts me as bad as when kobe died. 2 of my childhood idols
Growing up as a white suburban punk rock kid, It's Dark and Hell is Hot was my first rap CD and a gateway into more and better rap music. Will always respect this man for his craft and the energy he brought to his music. RIP.
I'm an old school metal head but have nothing but respect for X, his music, his struggles, and all the people his life touched. Gone but never forgotten. Rest easy OG
How's death a home? What does it mean he finally found it? He was looking for death? Doubt it. You have no idea how crazy you believers look when seen through rational pair of eyes...
@Paula Pogba honestly after all the sh*t I've seen in life I have no idea what to believe in.... though saying about a deceased that he "finally found his way home" is dumb - that's 4sure
@@pab1972 and you went out your way just to tell me this when i was just paying my respects? You could have kept it to yourself you know, or are you just that desperate for the attention homie?
Nobody did this like X did it, its a mix of R&B and RAP has its own unique style to it man, sick reminds me of the early 2000s listening to Grand Champ!
I’m here because DMX has passed away what a tragic him to die so young. RIP DMX, you will never be forgotten with your hard rap scream. Thanks for everything!!!
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.... Most of these peoples other favorite rappers are like xxxtentacion, pop smoke, and other dead rappers they only liked after their death. Like fr, the fake love just ruins the artist and makes actual fans look bad
@@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.
@@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. Like I listened to dmx, but he wasn’t one of my top five and still isn’t, but it still makes me embarrassed to even talk about dmx now due to the fake love.
Rest In Peace real og🙏🏿❤️

I'm so glad that I was raised in this generation of rap and hip hop. Rest easy, X.

I wish youngsters could experience what we did when summer jams like this came out... The hype, real hip-hop radio play, and word of mouth before everyone had Internet
No disrespect to other urban singers that have passed away but since Biggie this is the most influential passing since.... What a Legend.....
True

It's a sad day for hip-hop. Rip the DMX the goat. He will be missed.
There was some saying he dead but his manager said he not dead .. what now?
@@90DeadTimer he family confirmed it
goat? that is highly debatable.....
He was phenomenally talented ‼️
@@honeybdream im not denying his talent, to say hes the greatest of all time? thats a whole other ball of wax. Great for sure, but greatest? not even close.
RIP DMX - Still the greatest
Love DMX because he was rapping about pain and struggle, not about exotic cars, clothes, jewelry or mansions. His music was real.
exactly!
Music that we could relate to
Give a dog a bone, leave a dog alone. Let a dog roam and he’ll find his way home ...RIP 🙏

Estoy llorando 😭 por el
Rip ojalá que sobreviva
who else is here praying for X's safe recovery? 🙏
thats low level begging for likes.
Yes lots of prayers going up😥
They now say he isn't gonna come back from this.. the OD..heart attack..and lack of Oxygen for 30 mins.. he is braindead.. how fucking sad!!! Just hope he doesnt suffer.
Lol maybe dont do drugs.
@@sace1608 Shut up you troll. DMX helped a lot of people. There are many stories of him helping people on his own volition. Jesus said to not judge, as you will judged accordingly. As a "Christian" you should pray for his soul and the souls of everyone and never, ever, wish perdition on the children of God.
Never listened to dmx because of the two songs that got thrashed on the radio just discovered his albums in the last month, the man was a genius lyricist. Wish I had of seen him alive he speaks pure honesty
The dog has found his way home today. RIP.
Dang bro this brought tears
Most def RIP to DMX.
@@AllegoriCalD0:03
The amount of metalheads here saying that they still loved DMX’s music just shows how influential he was to appeal to more than one genre. RIP DMX
Completely agree. Look, the best rock/metal/punk bands are all about intensity, honest to their aproach; whether its 70's Aerosmith, 80s hard core punk; up to more recent bands like Lamb of God and Gojira. DMX was real, aggresive; true to himself and whomever appreciates his craft, his delivery. Legend.
I know i love it.
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
It's because of his hardcore aesthetic and raw energy. A lot of metalheads always messed with NWA, Mobb Deep, Onyx, and DMX.
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.
We lost a raw talent.
It’s not fair but I hope he is resting in peace. ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN 🙏🏾
Yes 😭
Nice!
Good afternoon, How are you doing? Thank you for being a Fan and following my Page. God Bless You??

To escape domestic abuse, he spent a lot of time as a child on the streets of New York at night and found security with stray dogs. Wounds that you suffered as a child are hard to forget. I will never forget you. R.I.P. brother. Thanks for your music.
Rest in peace X
Even though they tried to frame him for dog abuse. Fucking Basta***
That's right he went through a lot in his childhood

Metalhead who's a fan of DMX here. X gon give it to ya
still a banger for days
Prayers to X. Sad that he was tormented by demons that wouldn’t let up. Addiction is a heinous illness that never ever stops trying to take you out. It’s death on an installment plan. I pray he makes it thru and can be himself again. Dude was part of the soundtrack to my life and especially the years I was growing up.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Death on an installment plan... that hits.
Wow powerful words “its death on an installment plan” 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

never in a million years would i say i would be shedding a tear while listening to this. rip DMX 🙏🏽
I bet cause of his drugs see this is call life and reality. They want fake perfect people to hold them titles.
For some reason it makes me feel better I don't believe in hell he is in a better place where you don't need drugs everything is so Crystal Clear it's the best feeling you could ever imagine that's what I believe what happens when you die so I think he's good it's us that are stuck with emotions but yeah makes me happier listening to certain DMX songs

Rest in peace dude. You will go down as a definite legend!
no one can ever copy him. there won't be a 2nd DMX. If one of those autotune rappers dies, the music industry can replace him anytime.
Truth Indeed
We lost a big one today! RIP DMX rest up in heaven 💯🙏
Yessir 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I just heard the news, this shit sad 😟🙏
See y'all on the never ending Highways on our bikes !
DMX died from the Covid19 vaccine. The fake news media is spreading lies that DMX OD'd . The family says this is FALSE. He took the vaccine and within days he was in a Coma.
😥 I hope they play this shit while they're carrying his casket.
One of my favourite rap songs of all time that defined my Childhood. X will forever be a legend…An iconic reference…Love you❤
Man, not sure I'm so sad over him dying. He struggled and overcome so much. Wanted him to bounce back one last time. May he rest, finally, in peace
Back when music was good. Thank you DMX I’m glad you were part of my childhood.
Me too x. Derek. Drag on. Fake azz meme phish bleeding. With Jay bitches. U we're louder laz volume. Why turn down. We don't m unless tear donw down and rebuild. #$ so which one 🕐🕜 blister listen to Shawn. Why. He man. Listen bro god.
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. 🙏
Major move in tap.
May he rest in perfect peace.

I’m here because DMX has passed away what a tragic him to die so young. RIP DMX, you will never be forgotten with your hard rap scream. Thanks for everything!!!
Coincidentally, Earl passed away at age 50, the number of likes on your comment. RIP DMX
Rip real one 🕜
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.... Most of these peoples other favorite rappers are like xxxtentacion, pop smoke, and other dead rappers they only liked after their death. Like fr, the fake love just ruins the artist and makes actual fans look bad
@@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.
@@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. Like I listened to dmx, but he wasn’t one of my top five and still isn’t, but it still makes me embarrassed to even talk about dmx now due to the fake love.
