He literally says why he called himself dmx in his book.theres no mystery. Well documented you can even google it now.​@kanarcydalive1579

DMX actually was a great storyteller rapper. His subject matter mostly revolved around the streets, his spirituality, fighting his personal demons, and crime stories. He was a great rapper.

DMX is a story teller!!! I went to one of his last concerts when he was in Atlantic City beach. He’s cussing one minute then having church the next😂 Had grown men in tears

Not sure what DMX songs you have heard before, but DMX has never just barked in his music. Yeah young one you have a lot to learn.

The DMX I grew up with was the whole '''Im about to lose my mind up in hea up on hea!" back in the late 90s and my personal fav X Gon' Give It To Ya!! Love that song.

This song was released in 1998

Biggie's wife Faith Evans is singing the hook.

I love me some Earl❤ I’m glad this was your first song by him. It shows all sides of him to me. DMX was beloved worldwide and when he passed, it affected a lot of people. We loved him, flaws and all. “Slipping” and “How We Be” are two other of my favorite songs by him.

What is DMX known for? he can, hesitation hesitation rap? Man this dude is a LEGEND. One of the last real rappers, PAY HOMAGE!

I don’t think he has a bad song… your right he’s truly a true story teller. Can make you hype, somber, pray, and cry. Maybe start with his first hit Party Up/In here, Slippin, What they want from me… No Sunshine..” Honestly his albums are no skip records. Slipping tells his life story, be prepared.

DMX is known for echoing the STREETS. That is why his passion is felt. One more road to cross, here we go again where da hood at.

FAM DID NOT READ THE COMMENTS… Fam you gotta research the artist out of respect for the artist & your viewers 💯

Big facts lol homie making me take it personal 😂

This is my favorite Dmx song. He’s in my top 5 favorite rappers of all time. He’s very similar to 2pac in the way that he made you feel his stories and passion. One of the all time greats.

Pac was more than a battle rapper. He was a prolific storyteller who rapped about a variety of topics. Black empowerment, female empowerment, love, hate...that's what made Pac among the greatest of all time. X was similar and while excellent, comparing him to Pac is unfair. X is X and Pac is Pac.

DMX has alot of good songs. Slippin, Party up, Damien, Ruff Ryders Anthem, X Gon' Give it to Ya, Where the Hood At?

Those barks are because censuring certain words, the barks are not on the original song.

X was multi talented. As real as they come. Definitely a storyteller. Wasn't afraid to speak of his demons and troubles but certainly grounded in faith.

unfortunately no dmx passed away. but he pass a problem in the industry for a few years. request. DMX-Slippin he tells his story.

DMX came out during an era in rap where Puff Daddy and Bad Boy were at the top of the charts and rap was amount cash, prestige, glitz and glamour. X came on the scene dirty, gritty, and hyper aggressive. He pretty much too hip hop music back to grunge of the street with an overwhelming presence in the industry during the late 90's early 2000s.

LMFAOOOOOOO bro had me crying laughing at the "I Thought He Just Barks" lmfaooooo that shit is silly. But seriously he was a legend in hip-hop youngin. Do your research

DMX is most known for the energy he brings to his raps, and not really for his wordplay or lyrics. He is not a bad lyricist by any means, but he is still a pretty simple lyricist. Thing is his delivery and energy make up for it and it makes him stand out.

@@punkem733 he is basic with rhymes like "ay yo the dog livin like a hog, in tha dark im a shark in the park". Take away the energy and delivery and he would objectively not be very good. Does he sometimes show a bit more than that? Of course, but he has never been much of complex rapper with bars that make you jump out of your seat. His energy was his main draw.

One of the most underrated storytellers in hip hop history. Listen to his debut It’s Dark and Hell is Hot. It’s FULL of stories! And since storytelling interests you, listen to Sticky Fingaz (from ONYX) solo debut album called Black Trash: The Diary of Kirk Jones. It’s LITERALLY one long story from beginning to end. Dope concept, dope features, everything! You’ll LOVE it! I promise you

He is a hood legend

Devine master of the unknown.

DMX catalog is unequaled. What they want from a.

His album “It’s dark and hell is hot”…you should listen to it. It’s doesn’t have to be a reaction it’s a must listen to

X is known for everything no cap 🧢 he touches on all topics for the listeners

Gang Starr - Moment of Truth

My fav song from DMX is Aint No Sunshine. It was mt adult life as well as his .😢 try it

Dmx, Pac and Naughty By Nature were all boys growing up.

I don’t know if you have already, but dig into DMX catalog the man was phenomenal, absolutely different from 2Pac, but phenomenal at the most. DMX was a great storyteller there will never be another MC like him.

2Pac was influenced by the streets, DMX was the streets. He was born in Baltimore, but grew up in Yonkers. He was known for robbing hustlers and drug dealers to survive while on the streets. Many rappers rap about what they saw, X rapped about what he lived.

PAC was influenced by revolutionaries , he grew up in some rough places so he talked about it but he was the product of the Panthers and the BLA.

The difference is most old head hip hop lovers listened to the ones who paved the way for those after them...the fact that DMX was one of the best to ever do and you never heard of him is crazy....saying he can rap is an understatement...if you gone critique hip hop and do reactions pay homage and do ya homework my boi....respectfully

Well X lived the lyrics he wrote. Tupac was supposed to be revolutionist but did gangsta rap.

I've watched that first 10 seconds 100's of times and never noticed "Harlem".

The ninth song off "And then there was X."

X ENTIRE 1st album is INSANE 🔥!! He 1000% was a storyteller, a BRILLIANT storyteller!! "Its Dark and Hell is Hot" is a whole album checkin out real talk. His "radio hits" are.dope n all but the REAL X is told through his album tracks 🐾🙅🏽‍♀️❤

DMX can stand side by side to Tupac. Both great story tellers. I know they are making music together in heaven.❤❤

🐐 My favorite rapper of all time

DMX is one of the greats. 💯

He's got a few more hits that are way bigger like x gon give to ya, party up, where the hood at and ruff ryders anthem. he's also been in a couple of cool movies like exit wounds and cradle 2 the grave

If you're saying you don't understand him, or your first thoughts of him was adlibs, please go back and listen to his first album.

The type of guy to react to a radio edit of a DMX track.

He raps better than any rapper out now by a long long shot

DMX, my favorite rapper along with 2Pac and biggie small❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Earl Simmons aka DMX passed away April 9 2021 from a cocaine induced heart attack . Sad Loss for faily and fans.

React to Damien 1, 2, and 3. This trilogy is highly slept on! It's one of the best ever ❤️

You thought he barked through all his rhymes?😂

PLEASE do more DMX!

He struggled with drugs and Alcohol. Prison hurt his soul.😢

DmX was a religious rapper. He aways said prayers like real deep church prayers at his shows...IMO HE IS TOP 3 RAPPERS OF ALL TIME....biggie, DMx, 2pac.

X was a very spiritual person and felt he had a calling, but was far from a religious rapper. He felt one day he may be a minister, but felt he needed to deal with hid demons before labled himself as such.

Lord I feel for this generation ...😢

If you want to know more about DMX, react to his song Slippin

He is the hood gospel

young Buck, i have enjoyed your videos so far, but, if challenge you and would love to see your reaction to Freebird, by Lynard Skynard, live at Oakland Coliseum, 1977. its an experience ypu wont forget

geto boys- Damn is feels good to be a gangster. its ome of those songs i play in the morning or if im smoking weed. its damn good too lol

Connection to the streets.

Yo. Yeah bro. Ur cool. Where you stay at?

he passed away a year or two ago

No ja Rule was the impersonator of 2Pac and DMX Ja Rule was DMX his first hype man that he never needed 😅

I hope you watch The Ruff Riders. Eve is a beast and

X is known FIRST as 100% authentic… flaws and all. Pac was a persona that became a symbol.

Listen to DMX X Goin give it to you and DMX What's my name?

Dark Man X

Gotta get the un-radio edit versions of his songs without all the silly ass sounds effects over his lyrics.

Listen to ruff ryders anthem

Dmx is known for realistic raps when he rapped he hits your soul. Its not about lyricism Tupac had the same effect. Tupac replacement is disrespectful he even dissed him. He hated that comparison cause we knew Tupac in nyc and he was a 🩰 facts Btw NYC made up rap my friend. Puerto Ricans and blacks mixed made it after the break dancing scene

X came out before tyrese..so ty look like him. X is X.

‘I thought he just barks’. What the fuck is this kid talking bout? Smh

5 straight no1 albums …He was huge in the late 90s-early 2000s Check out “Slipping” DMX was a Genuis ..Great storyteller RIP Earl Simmons 🕊️🕊️ (I don’t get why u keep tryna compare him to 2Pac…(To me they are totally diffferent Love DMX❤❤

Hip-hop in the past had all kinds of different styles before this new shit of mumble rap and just a bunch of fast words on top of words

U thought wrong

I would say dude u need to start doing a background check on artist before u react cause u are so lost!! So sad

Why would someone like ya stuff when you dont know ya sht bro grow up dmx was one of the best if not the best

He ran from a group home his mom didnt want him ,,,a Abandoned pit dog was his only friend ,,,he owes to intimidate and steal with the dog whe woyuld sic the dog on you ,,ONCE of the worst cases of child abuse BRO DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Ruff ryders anthem....again open your ears...to use mumble and autotune rap....these are rappers today....I rap what my mind tells me...oh no just took shit and my behind is dirty....someone please get me a roll charmin to help me...ya ya ya

Nah man

This “clean” version sucks. They cover and delete words like nut and ass. The real version is way better.

Damn I couldn't get through the whole video lol do some research more man before jumping in on legends 😂.

Man Google some info 1st before your video. Pretty disrespectful honestly especially if the guys a legend n passed away. RIP DMX

Doesn't speak just barks 😅😅😅 seriously 🙄

RIP X
