DMX IS DEAD TO ME, AT LAST

D Em Eksh.

I met him in the 00s. He was so cool and actually very nice and humble, unlike most rappers. It’s sad he could not overcome his addiction.

He’s one of the very few rappers my stepdad liked too. He would blast “y’all gonna make me lose my mind” or whatever it’s called at the place he ran to his employees lmao

Dead MX.

“I’m Gods Child”

RIP DMX, heaven gained an angel today 🕊 💔

This one hurts. Very sad news. A true legend

He was in such a poor condition that it's probably kindest that he's gone

He struggled with his issues for so long. God grant him peace

His music is still fire. RIP DMX. Legend.

Love his song Party Up. The video was great too.

The intensity is unmatched

May he RIP

Cuntiness aside for a sec, I hate when messy messes don't win the battles against their demons.

He was damn good at his game before it all went south.

RIP

Very sad. So many talented people get lost to their demons.

He was good at what he did. One of the few I liked.

Fifteen kids!

Hope he’s getting mauled by the dogs he abused in hell.

We fucked the wrong broke-ass rapper..

Fuck him. He doesn’t deserve your praise. I don’t care how well he could string words together or emote.

Abuse an animal, you’re filth.

And yet Aaron Carter, Demi Lovato and all of the The Kuntrashians are still alive

It's a fucked up world we live in

DMX IS DEAD TO ME! UP IN HERE! UP IN HERE!

Good riddance, bitch! Let us never forget his normalizing homophobia in the early 00s with such poetry as "Where The Hood At."

Man, cats don't know what it's gonna be Fuckin with a nigga like me, D-to-the-M-to-the-X Last I heard, y'all niggas was havin sex, with the same sex I show no love, to homo thugs Empty out, reloaded and throw more slugs How you gonna explain fucking a man? Even if we squashed the beef, I ain't touching ya hand

How’s Demi Lovatao taking it?

Is he right behind Prince Philip in the line to the Pearly Gates?

R21 he was actually very accepting and pro gay with time. Get off your high horse.

How will Meghan make it all about her and her disrespected self?

Meghan Markle? She’s not even that bad

Yet again the obsessive Megan Markle loons are polluting up this thread which has nothing to with her.

[quote]pro gay with time.

r24 What a struggle it must have been for him. All is forgiven!

Devastating news. He battled mightily with severe mental and substance issues. He became very strong and eloquent about his faith in God. Rest King.

I know a lot of people who have struggled with addiction and mental illness yet managed to not abuse animals or father over a dozen children. Strange how DMX couldn’t manage that.

It's very kingly behavior, R30.

r25 she won't have to. People who are obsessed with her (e.g., you) will do it for her.

Did R2 tell him he was gay?

YAAAAAS KWEEN!

This is a kween thread, for sure. Look at all the kweens in mourning.

From all accounts he was an animal-abusing asswipe. So good that he fucked-off.

This thread embodies why Datalounge kind of sucks nowadays. It’s just...ghetto.

What exactly is ghetto about it, r36? If anything, this thread is an example that DL has gotten softer over the years.

“Softer” - just another ghetto word.

r38/r36 Did you just learn the word "ghetto" on a vocabulary flashcard? There's nothing ghetto about the word "softer" in general or in the context it was used in. I say DL has gotten "softer" because back in the day these kinds of threads would be full of dark humor, witty commentary, and interesting little-known facts about the descendant.

uh huh.

Does anyone know the details of his gangbang?

He should've listened to Nancy Reagan.

I still can't get over the multiple animal cruelty charges.

I prefer animals to musicians, or any other human.

RIP Earl. Do better in the next life.

R30 please

“Ghetto”???? I swear some of you need help

I hope Faith Evans sings at his funeral

Thanks for confirming, r40. Make sure to swing by tomorrow and let us know what the new word of the day is.

I'm surprised no one has posted this video. It's delightful to listen to a drunken Christmas Eve.

Lots if Jesus freaks commenting. Umm, Christianity is not true, kids. Time to put on your big boy pants.

I’m glad he’s dead. The world is a little bit better now. No matter how talented someone is it doesn’t excuse animal cruelty.

R50 you sound like a broken record

Flush Twice.

He really hung in there.

Five number one hits

And Meghan is still alive.

will they have a second coffin for his dick? Rumor was it was ginormous.

You’re vile. Watch yourself

Watch yourself bro

Incredible

Tribute

ast I heard, y'all niggas was havin sex, with the same sex

I show no love, to homo thugs

Empty out, reloaded and throw more slugs

How you gonna explain fucking a man?

Even if we squashed the beef, I ain't touching ya hand

I don't bunk with chumps, for those who been to jail

That's the cat with the Kool-Aid on his lips and pumps

I don't fuck with niggas that think they broads

Only know how to be one way, that's the dog But that's not all: DMX hates homosexuals and crossdressers so much he features them prominently in the video for this song as ridicule.

Iconic legend

garbage POS

He was a [italic]Golden Girls [/italic] fan.

So fucking what?

He was a talented man.

He really hung in there.

R66 at what? Being an addict?

At his art

His lowbrow “art” does nothing for me

R70 good for you. Move along then. The rest of us are celebrating the art he provided.

Animal abuser and heterosexist. Lots of bootlickers out today. Where is the proof of his conversion to non-hater?

I’m just holding out hope for some trashy gossip about him.

R72, we don’t have to get your approval to be fans or mourn a human being’s death. You do you. Learn tolerance of the diversity here and in the world.

No one said you did, R74. I am doing me. I have the right to call out an abuser and a bigot. I don’t have to silently accept hateful treatment from goons who think I am sub-human. You wanna lick those boots, you go right ahead, just don’t expect me to be quiet about it. I’d say you need to take your own advice: tolerance of diversity indeed. My opinion is just as valid as yours.

Wendy tossed his demo out of her car window in the 90s 🤣

Cast member Chris Redd held up a sign that read "R.I.P. DMX" during the end credits of Saturday's episode.

At another point, a graphic flashed onscreen that read "DMX" next to his photo.

Funeral procession

Regarding the animal abuse, here’s some revision history from NPR (of course) about DMX’s “love of dogs.”

Revisionist history, I meant

Boo fucking hoo.

NPR is garbage.

It's hilarious to witness many liberals who have been loud anti-animal abuse, anti-homophobe, anti-misogyny, anti-pedo, anti-rape/sexual violence on social media suddenly not just mourn but reminisce what a great artist sensitive human being this was.

That’s the future R85.

He made music people liked. Of course, they are gonna mourn his passing

The Ringer: Throughout his nearly three-decade career, DMX came to embody passion, rawness, and pure emotional honesty like few hip-hop artists ever have, barking his way through hits like “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” and “Get at Me Dog” one moment, and repenting and philosophizing on tracks like “Slippin’” the next. His was a decidedly anti-commercial approach, but it worked, and it made him the genre’s first new superstar in the wake of the killings of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G. To this day, few have been able to reach the heights he did—he’s the only rapper to have his first five studio albums debut at no. 1, and he was the first living hip-hop artist to have two projects go platinum in the same year.

His tattoos weren't great, but I think he was quite sexy

Yeah r85 they will be the same people mourning when R Kelly dies. Conveniently forgetting all the women and girls he abused.

Some people aren’t prone to keep grudges and drown in un forgiveness. In fact, many view forgiveness as a core virtue

Im reading about his animal cruelty charges from 2008. He seemed to be an animal hoarder at that time. That is consistent with the story that he took in stray dogs as a kid.

R75 don’t waste your words on R74. He is always posting about how funny he thinks animal abuse is. He’s just a turd needing to be flushed.

SNL

Lose my Mind still is fire
