@@KvngLxo 98 alone you had so many classics that year was crazy. So was 96. 94. What a time.

DMX brought hip-hop back to the streets with this album. After the death of Pac & Big, hip-hop took a cleaner route with the dominance of Puffy, Mase and the rest of Bad Boy dominating the airwaves and the charts in what is commonly referred to as “The Shiny Suit Era” on the east coast (and the dominance of Master P & No Limit Records on the south and west) resulting in artists like Nas and Wu-Tang Clan so-called “falling off” in the eyes of fans (which may have or may have not been true, depending on who u ask). Then in 98 a new wave of hardcore hip-hop was ushered in by newcomers DMX (Its Dark & Hell Is Hot), Big Pun (Capital Punishment), Noreaga (N.O.R.E.), and the song that elevated Jay-Z’s career to a new level, “HardKnock Life” from his third album (Vol 2…Hardknock Life).

This is probably my personal favorite album of all time.

My youngest brother died when he was 16 and his dad used to be my step-dad. I hated that man and used to think about beating him with a bat as he slept. I say that only to say that after my brother died his dad was around and ppl in my family were whispering about how they didn't want him there. Randomly, while I'm sitting there crying, I told them to stfu and some lines from DMX'S Look Thru My Eyes popped into my head: 'Now I'm supposed to love the one that cursed me? The one that wouldn't give me a cup of water when I was thirsty? It was always him versus me, but now I gotta teach him. Personal feelings put aside cuz now I gotta reach him. What I'd like to do is turn my head like I don't know him. But it seems like I've been called on to show him, so I'm a show him.'

Can you imagine being the opponent in ring and DMX intro drops with Tyson walking out in black trunks, socks and shoes?

You were right, Mike Tyson used the Intro in his fight vs Francois Botha. I remember watching it live and man Tyson and DMX combined was some scary shit

Awesome to see you appreciating this classic by DMX. Spot on man, it was Mike Tyson that came out to the Intro track for one of his fights. If you find the clip, the commentator actually mentioned how menacing it sounded too, so fitting for Iron Mike at the time. Also fun fact UFC legend Chuck Liddell used the DMX's Intro track for his entrance music back in the 2000s before he would proceed to knock out the entire light heavyweight division during his prime. Legendary.

We struggle not with flesh and blood, but with principalities and powers. D was a gospel walking for those in the hood, the closest some kids will get to having a audio and visual spiritual struggle. You saw him carry his crosses. When he performed, all those same ballers, slingers, pimps, the hardest of the hard would cry when he did his prayer. Either they thought of how their grandmamas used to take them to church and how far they were or just finally being able to let it out and it be okay cause they all knew the struggle, what they were doing to the hood, etc.. Like I said, the closest many got, that never went to church... or those that went down a path and hadn't even thought about God, outside of a few throwing it up that nothing go wrong with a shipment (on some Santa Muerte type thang), or for money, fame, etc.. but not when it's good and they're on top... then they look for other things.

He was definitely one of the realest and roughest MCs out there. His presence on a beat and that voice, damn. DMX was and his music still is a vibe on its own. This album especially is one of my all time favs. Keep up the great work you’re doing here on this channel. I love you the most of all the reactors because you keep it oldschool. I love your reactions of all the 80s/90s stuff. More of X, Pac, Nas please. And I got one request.😄 Nah just a favor. Please react to some of Masta Ace work. He’s one of my all time faves. He had a lot of influence on Eminem for example and is one of the best in hip hop history. I can recommend A Long Hot Summer, Disposable Arts or Breukelen Story for your reactions.

This Album is pure energy and rawness. One of my all time favourites

The funniest thing about the Ruff Ryders Anthem is that we all love it but DMX hated it because of how simple it was. I think he said he wrote it in 10 minutes after losing a bet. It's crazy the difference between an artist and fans. I loved the flow, the rhyme scheme, everything lol. DMX thought it was nursery rhymes.

DMX spoke the same way that he rapped. I think it just came from his stuttering and dark/light energy.

Stop Being Greedy was the first track that played on the radio. It's an expression of his Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde. He's not talking to himself. But he's talking to the listener as he switches back & forth between the two personalities. It's one of the best rap concepts I've ever heard in a song. Damien is up there too though. Dope ass track. Though I gotta say that ATF is still the best track on this album. Hands down. Though it's short, it's complete fire all the way through.🔥🔥

I miss it when all rap had 3 verses. Now we only get 1 or 2

This was one of the best albums to come out towards the end of the 90s. Came out a week after Big Pun Capitol Punishment. DMX also put out a second album the same year. Worth checking out. Also check out Ruff Ryder's Anthem Remix on DJ Clue - The Professional

In my opinion this is one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. And I've been saying that long before he passed.

Yeah. True.

There's a music video to Stop Being Greedy too. All 4 singles. Get At Me Dog then Stop Being Greedy. Then Ruff Ryder Anthem, then Hows It Going Down.

This was a game changer.
