I might be biased because I grew up listening to DMX when he was in his prime but to even attempt to compare him to Lil Wayne or Solja boy is straight up impossible.
Just from a lyrical perspective DMX's lyrics arent forced, theyre not junky in the sense that its "check out my watch, my car, my girls" granted there are some undertones of those themes once in awhile.
What makes him incomparable to these other rappers is the subjects he raps about and the metaphors/imagery he uses.
u got it twisted bro. im sayin how can people try & say wayne is the best. kuz he's not. i sed and people try in say wayne the best. u kno wut im stay.
wayne is trash, comercial garbage rapper for teenies and wanabe gangsters, real G's know whats up they know whos real and who not and anyone with little bit of knowledge about hip hop knows what real hip hop is, X's shit is for real hip hop in its pure form.
some times we all need encouragement remember we're not to follow idols. If u like what Mr. X said then come on home son the Lord is waiting for u. Get inspired into christianity and crack open a bible. No matter how many anti-christ comments i get and thumbs down i smaile cuz i know It's never a sin to listen to my God- YAHWEH. Blessings brother/sister in the faith. :)
He's a dear friend of mine, a person that's been through more then you and I can even comprehend. sometimes you need to open your eyes and realize that life is different past your community, don't diss someone unless you walked in their shoes. until the day comes that you can officially say you have been through everything that he has been through, just sit back in your chair and continue to surf youtube. just because your life is perfect doesn't mean it's the same for everybody. Grow Up.
I feel you.. DMX's music helped me get through a very rough time in my life. Despite his issues, he's one of the most intelligent people in the music industry. Not business wise, or anything material.. intellectually, he is very bright. We're all human.. I'd love to meet X, because I feel like I owe him my life, in a way.
Let Dmx know that he is truly annoited I know that he already know that and that I'am praying for him his wife and children dont stop D ppl need you keep being the man of GOD that he ordained for u to be
kid, you say you listened to his tracks, did you actually listen? if you actually listened then you would hear/see that he (like most people) have a certain pain or turmoil in their life. money? he;s not about money, and yeah i know him well enough to tell you it's not about money. i tell you to actually analyze his music, in hope that you would see where he comes from, not as a rapper but as a man. a human like You and I. i might not know your name but your words speak a different story.
pulsegang, actually sit there and listen to every single dmx album, right from the beginning to the end, don't skip a track, then you will really understand. you don't even know the man or where he's coming from. he speaks from his own heart not someone else. If Your Not From The Streets, Then You Can't Comment On The Streets.
i have listened to his tracks even party up which just annoyed me,how can you imply i havent got a background? you dont even know my fucking name so how can you know where i have come from.
Dmx is just on the money nothing esle,trying out new styles and trying to win the crowd....he doesnt fool me,he would jump at the chance to make a murder track with jay z
Nah DMX is pretty deep.Yea he makes them Party "Gangsta" tunes but how else would he get the record deal???Its the same with all rappers,Nas is the only consistent REAL rapper on major record label
why would i want to be a contradicting bastard???? lol listen to yoruself you arse and get off his dick.He came out with the dmx song''Lose My Mind'' after this track ??? tell me how this is changing?.I and most poeple i know find it incredible easy not to rob the next person i see on the corner ok and so should you lol.Look beyond his words and see his true face.
well i'll give them the benifit of doubt; dmx and every other christian that has a relationship with jesus that isnt so strong. just because if your a christian,you dont become less sinful right away...if t hat were possible, america wouldnt be having so much problems. Im saying this because my sister loves God alot, but she somewhat doesnt know how to stop gossiping, listening to lil wayne and all that stuff...so..
don't be afraid to read Holy Bible and be guided by it. God reward he's servants. Believe in me he always been with me, then my life was collapsing i prayed and never forgot to thank him for a bad day because next day might be living nightmare.
I mean X made millions but still keeps givin wrong name to evade a 1700 bill in the hospital, keeps stealin n beein how he was before he became famous, X is the only rapper in the game who still keeps it real, he rich but still a hood nigga, how it was said -"u can take a nigga away from the hood but not the hood away from a nigga"- this describes X clearly, he rich but still doin his thing, big respect to X, he a real gangsta not like all this wanabee garbage rappers nowdays.
On the CD version of this song. The prayer came first and then song started. In this video, I edited that by putting the prayer at the end of the music.
God really has a calling on this guy, he is fkcing up now with crack but like Whitney i know God will bring him back.The devil wants to take him, but it wont work, He is Gods own. I never seen a rapper sing about God as much as he do.
no way thats not fair...guns sex lies videotape but if he talk about god his record dont get played HAHAHAHA......nah but for real that sucks cuase this is a great song.
its true tho init political correctness gone 2 far and the fact tht th media is controlled by people who r against god or atheists basicly. its either tht or th fact they 2 scared 2 offend the muslims n other religions
dmx let me see something else lets love the angels lets love the lord and give your word your change will come in your dream i hope for you u will be true
He has taken the biggest risk of most public figures that we see lately; he has faith in religion and our heavenly father. DMX, you will never enter oblivion.
Whoever hearing this recently tells me that we all feel the same way God is working through this brother of ours Earl Simmons is a prime example of how the Lord Jesus Christ can change a mans Life God Bless You all..Amen
I feel such a strong connection with DMX and yet I never met him in life. I wish to one day to tell him what this song means to me and many. I was in prison and i had no music nor any other connection with outside. This song played over in my head and i wrote all the words down in my bibles extra pages. I read it over and over and it felt as though it was God speaking to me. The best line is -Its easier to sin but it hurts my heart. Slippin is another good one. Thank you 4 this GCX! luv 2 U
This is my favorite song ever beyond all others all kinds of music from rap rock all the way to classical and more. This song is beautiful and so powerful. i was at a low point in my life and therewere days when I played this over and over all day long. It speaks to my soul. I love DMX not for his rap and his talent or his sexiness but his honestly of love for the lord and give us songs like this that open the eyes of many. Powerful words in this it strikes my heart with sorrow and truth.
watch his tv series called dmx soul of a man , he says how he wants to eventually become a pastor. but yes your right some of the things he says arent 100 positive but all he is doing is pointing out problems that get overlooked in society ,
Yeah, I was listening to all his heartfelt prayers & lyrics to God & I was just blown away & wondering why I had never heard of him before, & then I hear him talking about Obama & cussing like a sailor & singing rap songs w/ other rappers that dont know God at all & are so wrapped up in the world. It just makes him look like a major hipocrite like he's repping for Christ but then goes & does all these other things.
If you're gonna be a light you gotta shine bright, ya know.?
Dmx has changed for the better, look up his interwiew on youtube. "dmx jail interwiew" he talks about being a pastor, He has recently put out a gospel album check that out. Lord give me a sign is also a good song by dmx.
somehow my mouse clicked on the thumbs down, Didn't mean to do that. DMX, You are an inspiration, and a beautiful glimmer of hope. You reflect an example of love, understanding, and forgiveness and the willingness to overcome negative thoughts and feelings. God Truely Loves You! This much I know!
Father GOD you know my name please bless my Father Vang Chue Chi, give him The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn shining ever brighter till the full light of day. Keep him safe from harm way, let him be with you father GOD help him gain the victory, and he will trample down his enemies to save his people "The Lost Tribe". Father GOD thank you for your blessing....
