Dark Man X (DMX) |
He started his musical career in 1991 and was on top of his career in late 90s till 2000s. In 2014, he was the fifth best hip pop artist with more than 23 million albums sales. He was the first musician whose first five albums reached number 1 Billboard Charts.
He was a humble soul and motivated a lot to become successful rapper. I loved his music so much and i remember cramming and maiming his songs back then in the year 2000 or 2001 from his second album Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood. I fell in love with rap music firstly with late Tupac's music but DMX made me understood the lyrics of the hip pop musics.
In one of his tracks, he said "Why is it every move i make turns out to be a bad one? Where is my guardian angel? Need one, wished i had one." He was one of the hip pop artist who tried to turn to God and he showed that through some of his lyrics that would easily turn to prayers.
His death is just a tragic loss in the world of Hip Pop. Dark Man X was a warrior, a preacher, a father, a son and friend to all. I would just say that God has sincerely gained another angel. Yes, he's gone but never forgotten. Rest in power DMX.
