DMX Does Not Like Drake, Is Not Impressed By Rick Ross

    In a recent interview, DMX was candid about his feelings towards several emcees. The New York rapper shared that he feels Jay-Z tried to “eliminate the competition” during his time as Def Jam President. He also explained that he does not like Drake or “anything about Drake” and that he is not impressed by Rick Ross.

    When speaking about Jay-Z, X said that he feels he wasn’t treated fairly by Def Jam when Jigga was the head of the label. 

    “I see what’s really good. You trying to eliminate the competition. At first you retire, then get me off the label and now you’re back rapping again,” he added as a guest on The Breakfast Club. “That was just some bullshit. You know what it is. That was getting rid of the competition.” 

    Later, he was open about his feelings towards Rick Ross. X shared that he is not impressed and added that he feels Ross’ subject matter is not diverse. 

    “I’m just not impressed,” he said when a radio personality inquired about Rick Ross’ lyrical skills. “He’s aight, man. He talks about eating and girlfriends too much. How much can a nigga eat? How much weed can you smoke? Let’s talk about something else…I see a whole ‘nother side of the coin, son.” 

    He was then asked if he liked Drake, to which he replied with a simple, “No.” He then went further by saying he doesn’t like anything about the Young Money emcee. 

    “No,” he confirmed. “I don’t like anything about Drake. I don’t like his fucking voice. I don’t like what he talks about. I don’t like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Nothing.” 

    An emcee he was complimentary towards was J. Cole, saying “J. Cole is nice.” X also confirmed that he’s on a new reality show with his ex-wife. He then added that he still drinks and smokes but says that he’s not doing “hard” drugs. DMX also shared that he does not know how to use a computer and that he’s not a fan of Twitter.

    1. I dont like Drake either. Rick Ross is boring and J Cole is nice. Sounds like DMX didnt lose his mind after all! Plus, DMX in his prime was better than Jay Z in his prime. Let the hate begin!

    2. I cannot stand drake or ross, so I’m in agreement with DMX. He is right though jayz was trying to eliminate the competition like a lil bitch. jay is a very shady person and X has always been real with it regardless, and doesn’t try to hide even when he fucks up.

      1. Yo,crack rock.

        X is nothing for ya

        Cant do nothing for ya

        X is coming for ya

        Load,Pack,Puff

        Yeah,He gon smoke you up

    3. I agree with X,Rick Ross talks about eatting way too much and lacks in the lyrical department.Rick Ross treat hip hop buffet. Fat Fake Nigga is so wack…..I also think that its kinda true that Jay destroyed Def Jam and only sign the artist that were inferior and no threat to him.

    4. THE SHIT HE IS SAYING IS TRUE, BUT IT DOESN’T NEED TO BE SAID ON RADIO. YOU CAN’T GO AROUND SAYING THIS SHIT WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE A DEAL X !

      THE INDUSTRY WILL BLACK BALL YOU !

    5. Thank fuck a real mc is speaking the thuth about these co’s and aubrey faggin muthafukas that cant sing. And not co-signing them and doind tracks with them! The real dudes out now is freddie gibbs roc marci and kendrick lamar

    6. Wow! DMX is defiantely one of the GOATS.
      Straight up! Straight the hell up!

      Everyone should cherish who we have here!

      DMX is just a great, passionate and amazing artist. Wow, that made me happy!

    7. at last someone other than 50 cent is keeping it real and saying how it is all these other dudes to scared to say anything

    8. LOL @ “I don’t like his face”.. Haha… While everybody is entitled to their opinion and we all know X is one of the realest niggas in hiphop, I think dudes in X’s situation (trying to make a come back) need to be careful how they criticize other emcees. Especially when those emcees are among the hottest in the game at the moment. It makes you look like a bitter, old ass, has-been rapper

    9. man i hope ross bodies this crackhead. u should be lucky somebody is even willing to sign you. nigga hatin cuz drake n ross two of the hottest rappers in the game. wtf do u talk about in ur songs. nobody wanna hear about fucking dogs barking or u doin crack. thats why your garbage now

      1. Rick Ross. Former CEO. Fake Drug dealer. Suffers from seizures.

        The only person Ross is going to body is himself.

      2. HAHA I just had to add “you’re a faggot”…

        Most replied to piece of shit comment on here…

        Rick Ross is like watching the wrestling, shit is entertaining for the first 10 seconds, then you realise its all a made-up act…

        Drake is a faggot.. his lines are shithouse, the only reason he got popular is coz he played Jimmy on Degrassi…

        As for the Jay-z part, Jay-z is one of the most over-rated rappers of all time, why wouldn’t he wanna kill some competition?

      1. soo what young jeezy n lil wayne is real hiphop??????? its clear dmx was hatin when charm compared him to big. if dmx didnt think ross was good how would he know about what he raps about if he doesnt listen to him anyways??? dmx needs to put music out instead of doin interviews n hatin

    10. niggas love 2 hate on drake

      he aint hating he saying what he thinks and a lot of other hip hop heads feel the same

      1. you’re half right. BUT DMX was hating on Drake, he dissing Drake for shit that had nothing to do with hip hop lol.

      2. Well it’s because Drake fans and mainstream listeners in general think Drake music is Hip Hop when it’s clearly teeny pop music. X paid his dues and has every right to state these comments about the two ‘hottest in the game’.

    11. dmx is real! we need that nas and dmx collab, fuck all other corny rappers such as officer ricky and that fagget drake.

    12. “No,” he confirmed. “I don’t like anything about Drake. I don’t like his fucking voice. I don’t like what he talks about. I don’t like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Nothing.” …..#ROTFLMFAS

      1. too bad its coming from some washed up old mother fucker saying that jay z needed to get rid of him because he was too much competitition. His opinions are obviously worth fucking nothing!

      2. what he said about jay has some truth to it. jay always been a shady ass coonin nigga. niggaz mad cuz he speaking the truth, his opinions are worth the same as everybody elses, but its worth somethin to you seein as you responded on a message board dumbass

    13. Shows,Video Games, Rappers, They all copy and repeat the same format over and over again.People do this all the time. Wake the fuck up people. How many Jersey Show seasons do we need? How many Call Of Duty games do we need? Is it different? NO..its the same game!. People dont want to push themselves and grow. I feel what DMX said. Thats why I wont spend money or even waste my energy into people and things that I already experienced before. No growth what so ever. Most these rappers are corny as hell (cough)Rick Ross (cough) Drake aka Canada Dry.

    14. I love how all of these stupid niggas on this comments are pardoning his jay-z comments… This guy is straight retarded

    15. These niggas be frontin… Envy aint playin nothing if he aint getin caked up from the label. “This what we need”, nigga we need this shit because you fucked DJ’s and radio shows be on that shit..

    16. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr…

      Well said X. I’ve listened to damn near every Ross joint he’s dropped and I can’t recall one fucking lyric from that dude.

      100% cosign on Drake. Dude is like that dude with no friends that you figured was gay cuz he spends his entire life sucking up to chicks. Fuck him.

      As for Jay? X my man, you done put some bullshit out. You eliminated yourself from the game, kid.

    17. DMX was from a time were rap was hard

      Now rap is mad gay pussy music i really dont listen to rap anymore to predictable

    18. X is hilarious..He’s good for hip hop but didn’t he do a New Years Show with Lil Wayne and Cash Money?giving him wild love on stage and what not?And wasn’t he in talks to join MMG? Now it’s shots fired?guess they pulled their offers to him…

    19. so he’s not impressed with Ross because he’s not diverse enough…this is coming from a rapper who talked about fucking corpses, and had a popular song with Sisquo where 3/4’s of the song is just him rhyming different bitches names. What’s weird is that he was saying a couple of months ago that he was thinking of going to MMG. X is a bitch, he apologized about talking shit to Jay-Z a little while ago because Swizz asked him to, now he’s going back to talking shit. And now fags that were hating on X on DX are now saying he has talent just because he disses Drake. Haha same shit happened with Common, why isn’t he being brought up anymore by anybody on DX?

      1. he said that Ross said somethign like, “There’s always a home for me at MMG”, I’m not going to go back and watch the drug addict talk about shit that he probably made up in his head. Another
        “devout” DMX fan trying to back him as a REAL rapper…haha

    20. thats what the fuck we need…every legend out there is suckin dick and has no courage to say whats up…i bet if every real mc would say WAYNE,ROSS,DRAKE and other retards from MMG,YM and Brick Squad can suck a dick they would fall off

      1. he said he was “cool” with wayne… he is not gonna talk shit about someone he is friends with. he hinted he doesnt like his lyrics

      2. he told me u was a knuckle head. u need to go to the mosque or something. why would he say Wayne is wack when that’s his man?

    21. X is real…Right…someone who was in talks with signing to MMG, and performed with Lil Wayne in Miami on New Year’s, Drake was probably there, so he most likely talked to him and acted cool with him, if he wasn’t there then he was obviously ass to ass with Lil Wayne, if he was real he would have let his intentions be known at the actual fucking performance, like “Yo Wayne I got nothing but love for you, but I fucking hate your protege”. Fake Nigga is Fake.

      1. he said hes not going to hate on cats for no reason, they asked his opinion on drake and ross and he answered with HIS OPINION

    22. he’ll never get signed after this … you can’t be cool with Wayne and then diss Drake in the next breath. It doesn’t work like that X.

      SMH.

      1. stfu dumbass!!! “it doesnt work like that X” X been doin this before wayne picked up a damn mic….n to top it off, this nigga sold MILLIONS which means he aint gotta sellout like his other peers from his generation!

    23. haha… i have the same feelings on drake, although it seems as if hip hop artists are no longer an expression of the struggle but rather a “packaged product”. thats what X sees. X always talked about his spirituality as well so he just probably looks at them as shallow “surface-level” rappers and people.

    24. My response about these guys in the article on Jeezy.

      What happened with this young man is the shift in what’s popular. If you recall my battle back in 07 with Kayne west. He had the more pop/gay swag and crowd on his side; while I came with the shoot em up beat em up style that niggas need to be men in today’s society. But as the media would have it they played me off as the bad guy. But more on Jeezy he’s suffering this with guys like Wayne, Rozzay, Drake, all of them are much softer than him and many would say they sold out but not really; this is who they really are and feel comfortable being in side(gay swag and pop) I never got into wearing the rainbow color clothes or very tight jeans, or tried to act like I was a jean designer but these guys did that’s why you question who are they trying to target, certainly not the hardcore listeners. So if Jeezy wants his throne back he’s going to have to do trap 2012 not trap from 2007. You need catchy beats and catchy hooks. Stop making depression like songs, make something crackheads/pill poppers can smoke to when they’re at home with no life.

    25. Sure D, coz Jay was running scared of you. Competition for Jay, really? Fuck Outta here. Go back to jail nigga, get baked then raped then taped. Fuck everyones Mama posting here. Including mine, muthafuckas. Suck dick, west life is how we do it. 8 inch dicks nigga, we fuckin bitches tight aaight? Nigga fuck Dmx, that nigga a faggot, he tried to Swizz to suck him off one night. Fuck yo condom ass ruff ryder, I bet they didn’t use while rapin yo tight ass. Dickface is who you be. Fuck everyone that aint gettin that good pussy, not hood rats and shit.

    26. Soon as somebody speaks their mind, y’all associate it with them hating..smh. If he don’t like Drake, so what?? #Dickbags

    27. Some of you crabs talkin shit about DMX are either too young to remember his shit or are just total fan boys of the dudes x mentioned. Thank the fuck there is someone out there who still speaks their mind. Why has everyone gotta dick ride these dudes just cause they got mainstream success? He’s just sayin what a lot of people think. Ross is fuckin average. Drakes just drake, that’s all that needs to be said about him. As for jay, dude ain’t god, so fuck him too. Fuck diplomacy!

      1. no i heard dmx when he first came out he was the shit but he made himself go down hill … he just hating right now he wants to make that money again … hell he try acting like a cop once guy lost it man

      2. its not hating, they asked him and he gave his opinion

        believe it or not, not everyone in the world likes drake and they dont have to

    28. Im really happy that hes such an honest person. Theres so many rappers from his generation that are into all that political bullshit of co-signing wack new rappers. Yeah, you may risk being black balled by the industry but since when did the corporate music industry start controlling hip hop views and opinions? That shit is wack, hip hop needs less tools and more free thinkers. Thank You X!

      1. well thats because those rappers need the money *cough busta jada raekwon cough* X was the highest $elling rapper in his generation! he can speak his mind, n not worry about starving from being blackballed becuz this nigga already cashed in.

    29. This nigga X know he no longer relevant so he going out try to stir shit up to get his name back in there. The fact is, Jigga didnt drop his ass cuz of comp, its cuz this nigga couldnt lay off the crack. And before X go dissin Drake or Rozay, this nigga need to come out wit a hot track and stay out of the prison. No one cares about X anymore this the only way this nigga tryin to get a buzz.

      Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. Ross approached the man behind bars trying to get some real proven street cred behind his label. Only issue I have with X speaking his mind now, is that when he first revealed that Ross’ people approached him he said he respected his music then, a little contradictory now, but at least we know the truth now.

      2. blah blah blah. All of you Drake fans use the same dumb ass excuse….”He is no longer relevant.” Same BS you said about Common. What you don’t know is that Common and DMX are more relevant now then ever b/c hip hop is so fucking whack now!

    30. X is realer than 99% of rappers today dude would eat drake up if he got his head on straight. dude needs to use some of that $ and get his teeth whitened god damn they are yellow

    31. I see YMCMB fans goin into hiding, DMX just blast one of yours, truth be told, Drake is wackkkkkkk, YMCMB is wack, wish X could wipe them all out, The Dog is backkkkkkkkkkkkk grrrrr

    32. damn im a Jay-Z fan as well but i think he be shook from them REAL bully/grimey/hood niggaz like DMX for example.Jada & beanie also

    33. jay z aint nothing like pac are you forreal -noones on pacs level because noone in the game gives a fuck like pac did so people need quit comparin themselves to him

    34. that Charlamane nigga is fuckin lame he always talkin shit n tryin to down somebody or somethin good.he was practically flirtin wit MGK when he was on the show!!
      MGK isn’t even wack.mgk is hott rite now he needa recognize.talkin bout French Montana & 2 chainz…but 2 chainz & french fuck wit MGK

      1. how was her flirting with mgk?

        if i remember he was clowning him calling him yelawolf and said he never heard any of his songs

      2. doesn’t matter.him clowning is natural he does it regardless.
        how the fuck you guna call someone Yelawolf just because he a skinny white boy that raps, thats some lame ass fuck boy shit.thats like me walkin around callin every fat black dude Biggie & every nigga wit dreads is bob marley.he a lame

    35. Haha! Smh, keep sleepng on x, dumb Fuks! Tunnl vizion @ss, can’t c d forest frm d trrrzz @ss Simps! X fanbase is strngr than u think, blieve or know! X didn’t say it for a “buzz” Hell u knw wht ….Even IF x had to stoop 2airn out false flaggn, half steppn carboards, Das Stil a good look!

    36. its sad to see that X not signed or popping off old shit was way tight but its political in hip hop its nice to see him back in the game some what

    37. X IM ASHAMED OF YOU.

      PAC AND BIG WOULD HAVE NEVER SAID SOME HATIN SHIT LIKE THAT FOR NO REASON … JUST SAY THE KID IS WACK AND LEAVE IT AT THAT.

      WHY YOU GOTTA MENTION THE KIDS FACE AND HAIR, WHAT THAT GOT TO DO WITH HIP HOP ?

      1. since when talkin real shit means hating..let me teach u something…if u say Rakim is wack then that is hate,if u say Slaughterhouse is wack that is hate,if u say WuTang is garbage that is fake…but when u say Drake and Ross are garbage that is real my dude…compare music brotha rap is rap …the game didnt changed rappers became to gay thats it

      2. the man was asked his opinion so he answered truthfully, i dont see that as hating.

        was he supposed to suck drake and ross’s dick and talk about how great they are and how he wants to work with them? fuck that

    38. ross cool his beats is what does for him but he got some tracks

      i rock with drake on features and hooks i dont no what a drake album sounds like

    39. wtf? don’t gunsling x….these dudes sound good and it doesn’t matter what you like. ok? why don’t you make something impressive?

    40. compare dmx to drake is like compare rick ross to biggie smalls dmx and biggie been on a different level and they been REAL

    41. I’m back! Fuck Common, I loved HIM! NOW HE DOESN’T WANT TO BEEF WITH DRAKE ANYMORE?!?!?!? I’m NOW a DMX fan, I’ve been a fan since his first Classic, Year of the Dog…AGAIN, he’s the BEST, REAL RAPPER EVER! Fuck Drake, I LOVE DMX. I mean I haven’t talked about him for a while, and there was that time where I hated on him with every DX article that brought him up, but now that he DISSED DRAKE, he’s the realest, biggest legend in HipHop. Fuck Common, Fuck Drake, Long Live The DARK MAN X. You can’t even deny his rap skills, “Blood on my dick, cuz I fucked a corpse.” SOOOO ILLL! What about, “There was Katrina, Towanda, Lashonda, Latina, Karina, and Tina” I mean that song had amazing lyricism, not everybody can make up AND rhyme names together! THE REAL IS BACK! DMX FAN FOR LIFE!!!!

      1. Just another Drake/Rick Ross dick rider catching feelings. You’re not a seasoned hater, you’re just a dumb little fuck.

      2. I’M A DMX FAN TO THE FULLEST! like my DX brethren, I would let him FUCK ME IN THE ASS if he wanted! Seeing as you’re a DMX fan also, anonymous, you would probably let him do that to you 5x over, which is something I’m jealous of. THE REALEST NIGGA IN RAP IS BACK! Dark MAN X!!!

    42. This website is so feminine now, all i see in the comments are grown men using demeaning words like women to try to hurt the feelings of people who like certain artists, all i hear is “gay, fag, fan boy, calling people teenagers, dickriding” thats teenage language, this is what boys do in high school, grow the fuck up

    43. Yo “SO…..” nailed it. I’m not gonna go as far as saying DMX is fake but that bipolar shit gets to him. Jay Z, DMX & Ja Rule are my favorite rappers after Big & Pac. But for one reason they’re real. You can quote DMX on a lot of interviews including his book E.A.R.L. on him saying noting but good things about Jay and even admitting hating on Ja. The thing I’ve noticed though are he likes talking shit on interviews and songs but when it comes to face to face time he’s all loving towards them. Proof what happened at the vh1 hip hop awards in 2010 when DMX came to Ja and opened he’s arms to show love. DMX and Ja have a big brother and little brother connection but X doesn’t like admitting it for some odd reason. On some other shit there’s an interview where DMX says Drake is talented but he says he doesn’t like him? I don’t like Wayne nor Drake but to say you like Wayne and not Drake is odd because they are almost one in the same, just saying???

    44. Seem like dmx hating tsk tsk jay yes we know he trying taking over the whole rap game but hell he drop good songs dmx fell off and went crazy … why even hate on drake o that right guy making three times money he was when he was younger don’t hate his style we don’t want everyone rapping about dogs and bitches .

    45. real motherfucking hip-hop stand up these bitches complaining drake, lil wayne are gay hip-hop has been dead since 2007 and only now we can see some decent rappers starting to appear but hip-hop is faraway from reaching back to normal form

      1. seriously why does everyone says real hip hop …. look hip hop is poetry everyone express it diff so idk y dmx hate on anyone he doesnt know shit but a has been who needs money … Nas is way more real then this bum

    46. DMX IS NOT A LYRICIST.

      DRAKE IS MORE LYRICAL THAN DMX EVER WAS…

      YES AN RNB SINGER IS MORE LYRICAL THAN X.

      JADAKISS, STYLES P, CASSIDY ETC. THOSE ARE LYRICISTS, DMX IS NOT.

    47. Big up DMX!!

      p.s

      Are you targeting Japanese market?

      I Officially did promotions for Ace Hood and DJ Infamous “We The Best” Japan Tour.
      I have more than 19,500 Japanese followers. If you are producer, artiste, DJ, dancer, or records/production company and need my promotions, check this out. (*Copy & Paste this link, and delete the unnecessary 2 spaces) ht tp://bi t.ly/zXEFnw

      Or contact me http://www.Twitter.com/RSmagazine The details are in the link in my profile!

    48. I highly doubt it was eliminating the competition, because if there is anyone who is is even up their lyrics to lyrics, artist to artist in HipHop, competitive wise, it’s Nas and Jadakiss, and he signed both them niggas to Def Jam so that don’t make any sense DMX..

    49. Think people hate on Drake because he is naturally going to have to Jack somebody style …He is from Toronto…fuckin Canada for godsakes…probably the corniest place in the world if you want to be a rapper…Drake’s persona is just so cheesy and corny, yet he tries to fit this rap mold of “hardcoredom” and the new popular word Swag..he has neither but like i said He is from Canada too, so that is like cherry on top of a bad mix for any type of respect

      1. Being from Canada isn’t a barrier to being a good rapper (k-os, Shad, Classified, and Swollen Members come to mind); being a shitty rapper is a barrier to being a good rapper.

    50. DMX is right. ross isnt diverse in his lyrics, he’s good but he always rap about the same stuff. if you notice all great rappers change the topic often in songs

      1. umm exactly we’re talkin about great rappers, not ordinary wannabe hardcores, wayne, drake, r.ross, majority of rappers nowadays rap about same shit over and over again, money,weed,bitches thats it, simple, no diversity at all, and thats sad and boring.

    51. DMX for real he aint a pussy he dont like someone he gon say it up front and he never said he thought lil wayne was good at rap he just said he was cool with him

    52. its funny that yall calling X a hater. but i guess if you’re not a fan of somebody than you’re a hater but if you are a fan than you’re a dickrider. its a lose lose situation

    53. He’s just saying what everyone else is thinking but is scared to. Not a huge fan of X, but at least he’s being real. If you think Rick Ross is something special then you need to expand your music knowledge. His voice is dope but that doesn’t change the fact he’s an ex p.o. who’s flow and lyrics never change.

    54. This is funny.. but dmx is clowning around tho.. i dont listen to rickross but im pretty sure that nigga dont make songs about eating.. why would a fat guy make songs about eating? thats too obvious.

    55. Everybody on here Dick riding DMX , I like X but he’s a hater he know Damn well Ross don’t just talk about eating,..I bet he don’t want it with K-Rino

    56. rick ross being one sided is so true.money cash girls pushing drugs wealth, material things thats it.talk about something else.he cant get more personal and talk about other things.thats why nas,eminem are legends.

    57. X dont got no buzz so the nigga tryin to run his mouth now. Does this nigga not realize that now Rozay would body his career. People now dont give a shit about DMX, irrelevant niggas are always the first ones to spout out some shit.

      Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    58. I was young & wasnt a big hip-hop fan when X was da hottest MC so Im not a big fan of him & jus listening to his past music, I like his energy and dat gritty style he had but I dnt think he was much of a lyricist..Either way, I respect his honesty & opinion and not co-signing every rapper like every1 does 2day. If u dnt like a rapper, jus come out and say it, rather it be his lyricism or just his whole style as a person. Hip-hop needs more of dat so much respect to X for jus being real.

    59. When I read this article I said to myself, I know what all the rebuttals will be and I was right. Look, for you young guys, it’s no surprise X feels that way towards Jay. They both have history and they both are very competitive. Weather it’s true or not is another story but thats how he feels and he could be right or wrong. I love Jay and everyone knows Jay is all business all the time.

      That being said, lets get to Ross and Drake. This doesn’t surprize me either. X comes from a age where you have to have skillz in order to be respected and clearly Ross has major flaws in his character and lyrices. Drake on the other hand is way to soft, to corny, and not a freestyler. It’s not what a real MC is all about. X with all his flaws, knows hiphop. So you have to respect his view point. He’s not selling an album so you can’t say he’s looking to sell records. He’s already famous and it doesn’t matter if he has albums out now or later. Bottom line, you just heard a real MC speak from the heart.

      1. Co-sign. If people on this site were more like you, I’d visit more often. But all I see is one big sheep mentality, dudes whining about they’re favourite artist being called out of being wack/bitches and trolls talking shit like they have an ounce of intelligence.

    60. Lets be real. By that time. DMX was no competition for MOST people on that label. Through no fault of anyone elses. We make choices in our life that effect our respective careers. If he was talking 1998, then we could talk. But, the late 2000’s? Nah, sun. Nah. Lol. Sorry. I agree wit him on Drake though, lol.

    61. its about time someone said something about drake and ross. like fo real dmx is definitely in the top 10 best of all time in my opinion and i agree when he said tht he represents hip hop. He will give it to ya straight up. he 100% real unlike tht fake fatass cop rick ross. hip hop now is like politics, no one talks down about each other.

      1. Goodness you new Hip-Hop fans kill me. X is a Legend whose resume is barely reachable if not impossible to reach by any new artist today. Get a life

    62. you so stupid, do you not realize that DMX is a legend? Rick Ross can’t change subjects let alone end DMX’s career. He will always be something to the Hip Hop community. People like you, who don’t know hip hop is ruining the game. smh IDIOTS

    63. i side with drake

      fuck X ! i used to like his music but too much hate towards everybody comin outta of his mouth.

      yes rick ross was a correctional officer. yes he is fat and fake as fuck, but still, he’s makin some good music and that’s all I’m asking for. same thing with drake, the kid is just doin him and i respect that. just give the young generation a chance to express themselves. i’d rather see them makin legit money than doin things that could lead them into a casket or in jail

      and if y’all appreciate dmx cause he’s been “real” well, just look at it closer and you’ll see how “keepin it real” took him to some dark places where crack pipes, cheatin wives, phony friends and fake entourage reign in this mothafucka

      hip-hop is just a mess, nothin but a bucket of crab

      1. Real talk from this nigga. Drake is corny as hell but he make his kind of music. Ross was a CO but he make good music. At the end of the day if you a fan of hip hop, you a fan of the music and not they personal lives. Niggas on this site always be on that hating personal life shit. Music is music, if it hot then thats all thats relevant.

        Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    64. DMX is no more lyrical than Ross. Stop the bullshit. Did you motherfuckers actually ever listen to a DMX album? X is more epic and grimmy than Ross but other than that they it’s whatever.

      Ross is dope and just like 50, X will be yapping in the background.

      1. Are you retarded or just ignorant of a talented rapper? To say DMX aint lyrical is like sayin the KKK aint racist. You obviously are one of the dudes who listened to Party Up and just assumed thats all X was about. X has story telling ability (Damien 1, 2, and 3), the nigga is an expert poet(all his prayers), crazily creative (Spellbound) he can get grimey as fuck (Tales From the Darkside, Here Comes the Boom, Shut Em Down), and he can be on some positive type stuff (Slippin, Prayers, just his thoughts in general). Before you go makin a ridiculous accusation as to say X aint more lyrical than Ross please go do your homework on the MC. X’s resume is hella impressive in this rap shit. No1 could touch him in dissing (His Tupac/West Coast/ K-Solo diss), poetry, intensity, street credit, all dat. GTFOH you silly excuse for a hip-hop fan. Learn and think before you speak.

    65. amen i applaud dmx its about time a veteran rapper has some balls to call out these garbage ass rappers out today drake is the wackest over hyped artist to ever come out i do like rick ross the old rick ross this new shit he doing aint poppin he too busy riding fat dj khaleds dick i dont like none of these new rappers i dont see these niggas i hope dmx stays clean and get back to that grimey dmx we all know and love he dont need to do what everyone else just keep doin his thing like he always done word up

    66. I wonder…since DMX disservice Drake directly is he going to respond with a subliminal diss like he did with Common??? Is Drake going to say this is not a hiphop moment??? Speaking as a fan of hiphop i respect DMXs honesty. X been doing his thing since 98 when he dropped It’s Dark and Hell is Hot. I must admit he’s not all that lyrical either but he has subject matter and speaks about his real life, not like these other fake rappers (Rick Ross). I’m just happy to see a real dude speak some real talk on these new rappers. They wack…

      1. yep, I 100% agree w/u & i like some of Drake’s music. If u dnt like an artist, jus say they’re wack or ur not feeling him. DMX kept it real and even if he himself isnt the best lyricist, u gotta respect his honesty

    67. X’s diplomatic stance on lil wayne reminds me of some shit common once said. He said: Some whack niggas are cool, with them i stay cordial.

      X is a free man, he has the right to speak his mind. You dickheads have NO right to try and stifle free speech by hounding niggas with accusations of ‘hating’. Plenty of niggas feel the same way as X, and have said so. But when X as a grown man with the same rights as you and me speaks his mind, states his opinion, you want to say he’s not allowed? That’s some slavemaster big brother fascist nazi type shit. X can say and do what he wants. None of you can stop him.

      1. Man thank you.

        The thing that these little stupid ass emotional microwave music ass bitches don’t understand is DMX isn’t some vague random nondescript nigga speaking about the game where it stands now…HE WAS PART OF THE GOLDEN ERA! Man the nigga was straight up responsible for the prolonging of the best era of hip hop and stayed true to such an era with creating actual thoughtful straight from the heart lyrics and music…then actually kept it hip hop while gaining critical acclaim in showbiz! The f is that!

        When people, i.e. these damn Drake and Ross stans, hear the truth about their dudes…they run on niggas with all that wack shit. What he said was TRUTH, especially coming from a nigga that was the essence of hip hop. That’s coming from a nigga who, albeit had one of the harshest lives in the world, actually had creative content and lyrics and versatility. Heck you can even talk about the same stuff but it’s all about the various different ways and styles you say it. Ross and Drake can’t even do that to save their lives.

        It’s just sad that a lot of niggas are just stupid as hell and mindless sheep.

      2. Stopped reading when the dumbass said that DMX was part of the “Golden Age.” Whether or not he channelled that idealized “spirit of hip-hop” like Golden Age artists is another topic altogether (he didn’t, his lyrics were, often, vacuous; he compensated for this lack of lyrical fluidity or dexterity with a great voice and delivery). However, homie started his career in 1998-1999, the period of limbo and transition characterized as an interface between the “Golden Age” and the “new school.”

    68. I agree wholeheartedly with X. Drake is terrible, rick ross is just as bad. Its just a shame that he’s so far from his prime that kids now would just call him a hater. Drake is everything that hip-hop shouldn’t be. Its sing-song watered down rap. I remember in like ’05 people were saying hip-hop is dead. If it was dead then, it has been over-killed now. Drake, Mac Miller, Wiz Kalifa. This is what is hot right now? Really? Don’t get me wrong there is quality hip-hop out there, it is just so far underground. Jon Connor’s Blue Album mixtape is about the last thing i heard that gave me some hope, but i shouldn’t have to listen to 1 cd for 3 months straight. its a shame what its become.

    69. Ross is wack and his subject matter is definitely wack for someone his age. Drake is not for me. I co-sign X and he has 2 classics that I would rather listen to over 95% of rap music ever created.

      1. yep indeed

        but still, we – europeans – are to send you a nice and big “FUCK YOU”

        ignorant mothafucka who don’t even realize his ascendants are from europe, asia, south america or africa

      2. Really dumb nigga? What’s good in the hood then, cuz Ross doing his thing. Check the “blacks” in the crowds.

      3. Given the fact that Europeans are, typically, more educated than Americans, I’d say their opinions may be more legitimate.

    70. niggas giving the chance to drizzy…nw ross n drizzy can make proper stay scheming track to bury this car stealing cat for real

    71. Man fuck you DMX, weak ass nigga. Ross worked for everything he’s got and your “crab in the bucket” ass is just another IGNORANT black male STEREOTYPE holding a brotha back. Ross or Drake don’t even know you dog and never said one ill word toward you.

      Get off the fucking drugs, stop being an asshole and be the person you CLAIM to be. Talking that noise, MGK better than 80% of the rappers out? LOL!

      1. X keeping it real. He was asked what he thinks about Ross and Drake and gave out his opinion. He’s right; Ross and Drake are wack.

      2. Yes, opinions are tantamount to facts when they come from “true” hip-hop heads. Logical fallacy used by ideologues and grumpy old men for time.

    72. I like how he try’s to keep it real …. But than explains he is going to be on a reality show. He’s a dope mc and I have nothing against him …. But if you speak about how you don’t want to be updated with the times, than why do a reality show ? Oh yeah money is involved….. When money is involved rappers will sing to the ladies or rap about eating food. So why is dmx hating when clearly he goes where the money is too ?
      The way I see it doing a reality show or being a radio friendly rapper has many commonalities. There is room for many forms of hip-hop/rap/r&b. If a particular doesn’t suit your style, it doesn’t mean you have to diss him…. At the end of the day everyone is trying to make a living.

      You got to get in where you fit in

    73. X is a lyrical beast. He is a better Mc than Rick Ross and has classics but, he is hating. He is a better Mc than Drake but Drake is a different type of MC and he makes good songs… X needs to stop hating and make music. He been killing the freestyles but he hasn’t had a good song in years …Stop the BS and get to the music and let the people judge. Its not even a age thing because Ross is only a couple years behind X and is winning. I used to be a Gay Z fan but, X kills him lyrically, however, Gay Z is about his business and X be on some BS….crazy thing about it is X raps circles around him

      1. DRAKE AN MC? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

        NAH. DRAKE IS A RAPPER/R&B SINGER. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A RAPPER AND AN MC.

      2. Drake has held his own on tracks with real Mc’s they front on him because he is light and get the ho’s….50 cent sang and so did Jarule …oh I guess 50 wasn’t an MC either…LL made stuff for the ho’s but I guess he can’t rhyme either …its called making moves to get money….Common, Mos Def, and Jay Electronica are some of the dopest Mc’s but none of them making money off of rhyming….

      3. You clearly didn’t understand my comment. Drake is a rapper, not an MC. There’s a difference. It’s not even about singing or song about bitches. It’s about mic skills and Drake is an average rapper on the mic, nothing special.

    74. when X asked them who they’re feeling lyrically, its amazing at how terrible an answer they give him, they list all the top commerical artists signed to labels with hype, MMG, YCMB. They couldn’t list a single real lyricist and ask X’s opinion on someone respectable? Ask X how he feels about Kendrick Lamar, Tech N9ne, Brother Ali, Joe Budden (all of slaughterhouse for that reason), ask him what he thinks about Eminem and Dre, and a myth called Detox, whether he would work with them.

      Most important statement of the interview: when asked about willingness to change or adapt styles to fit in with the younger audience “I am hip hop, not all of it, but I am hip hop” – no need to change when everywhere he goes ppl who been around a while say he fills a void in hip hop, and the youngin riding the dick of the latest trends think he’s an irrelevant crack head.

      1. yea charlamagne or whatever the fuck his name is looks appalled by the idea of machine gun kelly being lyrical yet he name drops FRENCH MONTANA as one of the best rookies out there? Read any verse French ever spit without the music and you will not understand what just happened

    75. I haven’t listened to all DMX songs but the songs I have listened too he wasn’t lyrical at all and his delivery and voice is awful

    76. Fuck outta’ here X, Drake is ill. Wayne is not to be fucked with lyrically and yawl can cry about the nigga til’ you’re blue in the face.

      Ross is good but an even better producer.

      Jay Z, Nas and Jadakiss are like the only 90’s rappers who aren’t going around being “mad rappers” because they know they are the truth. Because they are still ill!

      1. LOL. You’re kidding right? Wayne fell off, Drake is doing wack-ass R&B music, and Ross is a phony whose songs sound the same.

    77. FOR EVERYONE ON HERE HATING ON X THIS IS FOR YOU

      Are you retarded or just ignorant of a talented rapper? To say DMX aint lyrical is like sayin the KKK aint racist. You obviously are one of the dudes who listened to Party Up and just assumed thats all X was about. X has story telling ability (Damien 1, 2, and 3), the nigga is an expert poet(all his prayers), crazily creative (Spellbound) he can get grimey as fuck (Tales From the Darkside, Here Comes the Boom, Shut Em Down), and he can be on some positive type stuff (Slippin, Prayers, just his thoughts in general). Before you go makin a ridiculous accusation as to say X aint more lyrical than Ross please go do your homework on the MC. X’s resume is hella impressive in this rap shit. No1 could touch him in dissing (His Tupac/West Coast/ K-Solo diss), poetry, intensity, street credit, all dat. GTFOH you silly excuse for a hip-hop fan. Learn and think before you speak.

    78. Drake > DMX lyrically.

      X has a better MC voice. Thats all.

      I want to see Drake diss X, that would make my year music wise lmao.

      1. Haha, you’re kidding, right? Drake didn’t respond to Ludacris and Pusha T when they dissed him and when Common called him out, he chickened out. Also, Drake

    79. @Stop.

      You bitch. Man why are you running amuck with an emotional rant that’s baseless and off of the point.

      Fact: Jigga’s administration was one of the biggest failures and obvious conflict of interests ever in record label history. He furthered the madness and destruction Russell “I sell out for anything and stamp my approval on anything that will make me a dishonest buck” Simmons. The nigga didn’t promote cats albums. The nigga signed a gang of bullshit talent. The nigga just abadoned the stallworth artists that helped build Def Jam to it’s highest heights like they were little nondescript niggas. And the only artists he signed that were “successful” were buzz worthy and created their own waves prior to signing…i.e. Jigga rode dick and grabbed them (Ross and Jeezy). The only thing he actually did halfway worthy was hook Nas up but truthfully that was absolutely nothing but an olive branch that failed miserably cause Nas or none of the trill hip hop niggas don’t fuck with dude ANYWAY to this day.

      Fact: DMX is entitled to speak THE TRUTH about his feelings towards Ross and Drake.

      Fact: DMX said the obvious truth and what has long been stated regarding Ross and Drake. Stop being a dick rider and an emotional buffoon. Both artists are created by the industry that is now.

      Fact: DMX was and is the epitome of hip hop from the ground up.

      The nerve of niggas like you. And then to follow that bullshit up with MGK is better than….I won’t even finish that cause you need to be slaughtered like a pig for that shit.

      Stop eating that pork…and stop sucking dick, you bitch ass nigga. Learn the history and accept the facts for what they are.

      1. It’s me the nigga you trying to school on some bullshit. Fuck you nigga I said What I said and it ain’t changing. DMX is WRONG.

      2. lol at DMX being the paragon of hip-hop, as if he’s the personification of some age-old ethos, sprung to life in the form of a one-dimensional, lyrically-challenged rapper who now wants to dabble in rap-gospel because he’s clearly unhinged

      1. there are very few people who don’t know how to use one in 2K12 plus he isn’t that old where he shouldn’t know how to ….he can buy crack but can’t learn how to use the computer …cmon son

    80. All you niggas crying about Drake, DON’T LISTEN to the nigga then! Shit! If you so-called hip-hop heads listened to rap in the 80’s and early 90’s you’d really be pissed off because it was all about party rap and light subject matter. From Run DMC to Special Ed to Tribe Called Quest. Rappers back then could say WHATEVER the fuck they wanted to say without bitch made niggas trying to regulate their style.

      ALL you new heads are FAKE ASS FUCK in here. And you old heads are like every other OLD nigga, trying to tell the kids to turn the music down.

      1. no…this is a STUPID post…light subject matter?? NIGGA GO SIT DOWN…guess you never heard of NWA, Public Enemy, KRS-one, Wu-Tang Clan, Biggie, Tupac, Ice Cube, Scarface…the list goes on. Early 90’s was the MOST diverse time in hip-hop. And rappers can say whatever they want now-a-days too..doesn’t mean the shit Drake says is tight…if you call shit like “marvins room” and subject matter about going through women’s purses and cell phones hip hop you’re the bitch made nigga.

      2. LOL at this tool not understanding subtext; Marvin’s Room was just tapping into some universal themes that other “rappers” were scared to explore because it might compromise the hyper-masculinity that’s perpetuated and reproduced at hip-hop’s core. It’s a fucking song about not being able to move on; if you’re a fucking sociopathic loser, maybe you can’t relate to it, but a lot of hip-hop fans (who’ve never seen guns, crack etc.) can. It is what it is. If you don’t like it, then that’s cool, it’s your damn taste in music. But to make some pervasive narrative regarding those who can vibe with certain songs as “bitch made” is a gross generalization

      3. @ anonymous…i didn’t say the content of marvin’s room is wack…it’s that wack ass delivery…He says in the song he’ll start hatin..he admits to it. this is cool?? and i liked how you ignored the part about Drake rhymin’ about going through women’s purses and cell phones…dude is lame. and who the hell raps aboout how they fell in love with a stripper and then got played…FUCK OUTTA HERE!!

    81. NO. I’m not checking for DMX. I’m checking for “God Forgives, I don’t”

      Rick Ross has been making great music with great artist like Nas, Jay Z, Kanye, Jada, Wayne, Drake. Eric sermon already gave the co-sign on Ross as a lyrisist.

      DMX you on some publicity shit true to your words or not otherwise you would of went at Wayne to but you need to know you can still get that check.

      1. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Rick Ross a lyricist?! Ha!! Those niggas are ass-kissing. On ever song, album, mixtape, and feature, Rick Ross uses the same flow and talks about the same dumb shit; being a mobster and materialistic shit. DMX was asked about Ross and gave his opinion.

    82. hahaha dmx talking about lyrical. can somebody pleease name 3 hot lines from dmx????????? ross is waaay better than dmx. flow better adlibs better better lyrics n picks better beats. n its obvious or rick ross wouldnt be on top n dmx on the bottom. the ooonly reason this post has so many comments and dmx is gettn attention now is because he dissed drake n ross. not because of his talent

      1. you clearly dont know about anything in hip hop if you dont know a hot dmx line, how old are you 15. little fucks opening their mouths.

      2. @realtalk, you should’ve posted your bullshit comment under another name or better yet, you shouldnt have posted at all. you probably a fuckin kid brainwashed by the mainstream & excessively receptive to the BULLSHIT they release

      3. Yeah, he/she’s been indoctrinated by the mainstream, and you’ve been brainwashed by some old men who act like arbiters of an entire genre, when music’s inherently fluid (it’ll keep changing with time). Love the “you must be young” comment when some guy doesn’t agree with your opinions.

      4. being lyrical doesnt man using big words , it means having substance in your lyrics with DMX has always had , listen to a dmx song and tell me he doesnt have a message behind it…i’ll wait

      5. You must be a skinny jeans wearing young buck who enjoys music by fake gangstas who kiss men and wear tight pants. DMX got lyrics, has the subject matter, and is real as fuck without having to say it on almost every song the way all these newer rappers do. DMX’s albums have replay value too, cuz I and many others still play his joints to this day(his and 2Pac’s music are my main workout music), while these rappers out now make music that is forgettable. It’s Dark And Hell Is Hot was released almost 14 years ago and it still shits on any album by drake or ross, and that includes any album they make in the future..

    83. DMX you are stupid. You should of got with Ross simply because the man gives his artist creative freedom and top of the line production. But go ahead and let your ego kill your future.

      Why Jay let you go if you was the man, you really think Jay worried about you lyrically? No. You was cracked out and unfocused. PERIOD!

    84. finding it hard how X can diss drake and ross like that, these ‘old’ MC’s need to understand that rap has changed! I can understand why he doesnt like what rap has become coz of the different time in which X had his career in! Drake has changed rap for the better doe’ it aint about whos hard or nutin drakes expressing himself lyrically about things which are real not just material things! anyway X was in no position to make those comments, he aint dropped shit in years and no way could he match drake lyrically or rozay for that matter, theres a reason why Jigga wanted X out ya know!

      1. you’re a dumbass for defending Rick Ross. lyrically, he is garbage. My grandma can rap better than that fat fuck.

      2. no position to make those comments? listen, commander faggot, he was ASKED those questions. why be a pussy and lie about your feelings

      1. They’re followers, a bunch of heedless drones who can’t form opinions for themselves. They were told what constitutes “real hip-hop,” and, accordingly, can’t be objective about what’s actually sonically-appeasing and what isn’t. That’s why J. Cole’s album almost received a 4.5 from users on this site, while its Metacritic rating was at 75.

      2. This.

        Personally I don’t listen to either Drake or Ross (Drake is too RnB for me and Ross has hot beats and that’s about it IMO) but hip-hop is bigger than this bullshit now. Hip-hop ain’t just one stream anymore, you got alternative hip-hop, pop hip-hop, gangsta rap, conscious hip-hop and on and on so just cuz DMX ain’t feeling these dudes don’t mean they aren’t talented.

        People need to stop catching feelings over music, it’s subjective and can mean different things to different people. Get over it.

      3. @real Talk I disagree. its actually the other way around now. There is only one type of hip hop music, the pop version. back in the day it was everything from dead prez to wu tang to DMX to Jay z & Nelly. There was a balance, now its just auto tuned pop image driven ingenious jingles.

      4. that’s the only thing you’re hearing, you idiot

        if you’re only hearing pop hip-hop, throw your fuckin radio out the window and start lookin around.. damn

    85. This is not a surprise. Jay was just about the only nigga outside of Ruff Ryders
      he use to fuck with. DMX didn’t cater to the bitches or show off his money. The nigga was serious business. His debut album was grimey as hell and got nominated for a grammy. DMX could rob Drake and Ross at the same time with a butter knife twice in the same day. Fuck a diss song!

      1. That makes DMX such a man, eh? I’m sure some marginalized youths in the inner-city with ties to some criminal syndicate could do the same to DMX; so what?

    86. Dont know how niggas be sayin hip-hop is dead when you got rappers like Wale J Cole Big Sean Drake etc.. Drake might not be what people would consider hip-hop but hes just doing his own thing and killing every beat he jumps on his lyrics are true and he got the flow to match. Drizzy got it all and niggas like X just be jealous!

    87. OK , OK, OK … I WILL ACCEPT THAT DMX WASN’T A GREAT LYRICIST, FINE.

      BUT YALL BETTER CUT THAT SHIT OUT ABOUT ROSS BEING BETTER THAN X. DMX IS A TOP 10-15 RAPPER OF ALL TIME.

    88. Europeans love gay people and being racist. Drake makes gay friendly music and hes not a scary black man so Drake pleases us Europe.

    89. DMX is no longer commercially viable. That’s the reality. He’s living on a career that once was bro. Drake is soft as a feather duster but he’s now. Let these new MC’s get some shine. Someone’s listening to their shit…

      1. Why is DMX no longer “Commercially viable” haha, huh? Bitch, you’re stupid. Just shut up. Now. Tyler The Creator and Mac Miller proved you don’t have to sound commercial to sell records. And Im not a fan of either of them. And no, I don’t like Lil Wayne.

    90. Damn, X went off! he’s too gangsta for the scene these days. I respect that he speaks his mind. Rick Ross is wack, it’s ridiculous he’s been able to make a career off a fake-ass image & no MC skills.

    91. DMX is bring hiphop back sucker better deal with who sucks Jay -Z Kanye Weezy YMCMB MMG etc Rick Ross is fake and has got a fake name from a drug dealer Drake is all around lame who thinks he is hard Ruff Ryder G-Unit Game Fabolous Ludacris T.I. Nelly Fat Joe are bring hiphop back

    92. Amen DMX, more people like him to speak out against these wack ass main stream rappers, there used to be a time when rappers with skill like DMX used to dominate the airwaves, so don’t give me that “Mainstream music has always sucked” garbage

    93. “Stay scheming…niggas trying to get at me”

      Drake already made a verse for you X, one size fits all.

      On another note…How ya’ll feel about that H.N.I.C. 3?

    94. Also i don’t mind Drake, but now hes got this whole wanna be tough guy act going and its just making people dislike him even further, stick to rapping/singing about woman and love, and quit mean mugging in video cameras and thinking your so good you can go toe to toe with rappers like Common.

      That’s the problem with todays mainstream rappers, there all way to fake and try to be something there not.

    95. “I DON’T LIKE HIS FACE” – DMX

      ^^^ Drake already addressed this type of shit on Stay Schemin. A hip hop God actin like a broad.

    96. I like how DMX is being honest instead of kissing ass like every other rapper out there. We need more honest people in hip-hop and less ass-kissing. These rappers nowadays are surrounded by yes-men.

    97. Am surprised how people born in 2001 are allowed to comment on such topic, one question I want to ask is haven’t anyone noticed everyone at YM sings the same and alike, and we yet to hear anyone singing like X or legendary Nate Dogg. Kids please stay off this page or X gon give it to ya!

    98. YOOOOOOOO DMX IS OFF THE HOOK……….. I REMEMBER DUDE WHEN I WAS STILL MIDDLE SCHOOL. THE GOOD OL’ DAYS WHEN HIP HOP WAS STILL HIP AND NOT WATERED DOWN…… DMX IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENCIAL ATRISTS OF HIPHOP….. PLUS IF I HEAR THIS ABOUT SELLING RECORDS ONE MORE TIME.. IMA GO CRAZY.. THATS THE FUCKING PROBLEM…. PEOPLE ONLY SEE THE NUMBERS…LIKE MY MAN JARED JEFFRIES.. HE PLAYS SOME HELLA D… BUT HE DOESNT GET NO RESPECT CUZ IT DOES SHOW UP ION THE NUMBERS……. GO KNICKS…. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    99. Its simple. Quote whatever drizzy verse u want but what X is saying is nothing but truth. Every other rapper seems to be sucking drake, ross’, and hovs nutts.

      Real Nigga X

    100. question,

      did whitney houston ever say i’m not feelin luther vandross? did elvis presley say i’m not really feelin the beetles? this bullshit is called hate people!

      1. Can’t a nigga have an opinion anymore without being called a hater? Besides, X doesn’t have to like everyone and their music.

    101. DMX said some things that I agree with and some that don’t seem likely. I practice different art forms and it is my view that art may not appeal to everyone but no one has the right to judge what they cannot create. In that regard an artist is better suited to judge another artist than a critic.

      I respect Rick Ross and Drakes talent. Drake turned me off with the verse where he said he never shed tears for Pac but probably will for Jay. To me that spoke to what makes him who he is and what he is not. Rick Ross legitimacy as a real hustler or a studio gangster has been brought into question all I can say is he has a smooth delivery and he talks a good game.

      From a historical perspective Hip Hop is integrally connected with the struggle of Black people particularly those in America. Out of that struggle came an art form that had a message of hope and truth. Each and every record did not have a message but it was definitely more prevalent.

      For many like me it was medicine for the mind. So when I listen to Pac for example I felt that when I listen to Drake and Rick Ross I dont. They have something to say it just does not resonate in the same manner it lacks soul. For that reason none of their music will stand the test of time.

      Rappers today lack the diversity of yesteryear because they are catering to what the industry dictates. In short they are employees doing what they are told to do. Many of us can relate to that reality. Hip Hop of the past was rugged and rebellious because of the struggle. Today that is just a fake persona – many rappers are out of touch and too comfortable to relate to real issues or too scared of losing their fame and or fortune.

      Now the message is either tainted on nonexistent. The menacing out of control factor that used to mortify America has been replaced with cartoonish antics and nonthreatening posturing. Some of you fools call that swag. If you cannot see Hip Hop being synonymous with a way of life – like a faith then you cannot draw the parallels to what has happed to it.

      The music industry is like King James – they put their sick depraved hands on something that started off righteous and look what we have now. Spineless singers posing as rappers whose message consists of sob stories about their excessive lifestyles that most of their fans cannot relate to. Then King James puts his stamp of approval on that and you idolaters clap like good little puppets.

      Final note: Thank you for reading this. You dont have to agree with my views but be respectful. Its easy to anonymously talk shit but until one of you light-weights can get on my level I am lord on this board.

      Class dismissed: now go to your room and do your homework.

    104. Here’s another one . . . love the homie dmx but the whole everybody hating on young money is getting old. Young money is for the next generation there is nothing that can be done to change that. The more all these old rappers talk about young money the more albums they sell. Count how many times young money/cashmoney/drake/lil wayne/nicki minaj is mentioned in comments online everyday and then you wonder why they stay in the news and keep selling, you haters are keeping young money relevant lol
      Everytime you mention them they make more money
      YMCMB

      1. you wonder why so many peeps speak on how young money is wack?? you might wanna consider the fact that they are wack son… ex drake… wayne is aight, minaj can be aight, but shes wack most of the time.. drake is just strait trash..

      2. Damn JJ tight his favorite group aint getting no love… you sound like a groupie homey. money only gets you se far in this game theres another thing that all yall young bucks need to learn called respect. at the end of the day respect is more valuable than that green piece of paper.

      3. ^^^ respect ?

        thats why every where Wayne and Birdman go they get saluted by the “real hip hop” rappers YOU look up to ???

        LMAO.

      4. ^^its called “ass-kissing.” Every rapper’s doing that because they’re afraid of being called a hater by the kids.

      5. Cube said it best: “They’ll be a new n*gga next year” I am assuming you are young based on what you wrote so maybe you don’t know about how the industry treats it pop hoes: easy come easy go.

        Hot means contract re-negotiations – more points on record sales; less money for the record company. Ever wonder why only a few artists have long careers – they end up being financial burdens for the failing record biz. They are worth more dead than alive. Do you understand what I am saying?

        You can juggle balls all you want; figuratively or in real life but you cannot get around the truth. Ice-T said it best in his book: (paraphrasing) A fool on the street might kill you over a couple hundred bucks. What do think will happen when hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake?

        Anybody is expendable.

      6. The funny thing that all you drake fans and lil wayne fans dot even understand is that yall are being forced to like these guys. The industry is saying buy into these certain rappers and all of yall are just playing simon says. I know that yall wont take heed when i tell you this but when you grow up and understand business youll realize. I got a friend that works in the industry and believe me, its just a game of smoke and mirrors all aimed at you to buy into these rappers and put money into the CEO’s who dont give a fuck about you or hip-hop’s pockets.

    105. i cosign his Ross comment, thats the reason why i don’t like Ross, when he 1st came out, ALLLL HE EVER TALKED ABOUT WAS SELLING DRUGS & BEING A DRUG DEALER, then he got exposed yada-yada, now all he ever talks about is being rich, Ross is good & makes some good somes, but there’s no real diversity in what he does

    106. i dont care what x does from here on out nigga has a heart of gold and is a lion in the jungle. drake is a pussy cat faggot with pussy cat fans. ross is a fat fraud that makes wack rap music. he summed it up nicely about drake. i don’t like his voice, his music, his face, nothing. closet gay making love raps, pass. x would still body jay-z on a track today, all about getting the right beats and getting that push. x took jay out every joint they did, sonned him live on tour every night, and called his hoe card at def jam. such a legend. hope he can drop a decent album after all these years of trouble, man is a genuine talent with a bisons will.

    107. “No,” he confirmed. “I don’t like anything about Drake. I don’t like his fucking voice. I don’t like what he talks about. I don’t like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Nothing.” -DMX lol that’s awesome

    108. JAY-Z HAD A WAAAAAAAAAAAAY BETTER VERSE THAN DMX ON MONEY, CASH, HOES.

      IF JAY CAN OUTSHINE X THAT EASILY THEN DRAKE CAN SON X AS WELL.

      1. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Drake?!?! ROTFL!! He bitched out when Common called him out. X on his worst day is 100x better than Drake on his best day.

        BTW, X had a better verse on Money, Cash, Hoes than Jay.

      2. I REALLY HOPE YOUR NOT SERIOUS..MENTIONING DRAKE IN THE SAME SENTENCE AS DMX & JAY Z.. IM NOT A FAN OF JAY Z REALLY.. BUT HE IS PRETTY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES…….. I THINK DMX PUT IT ALL IN PERSPECTIVE IN THIS INTERVIEW WHEN HE SAID “GOOD FOR YOU” BUT HOW MNY TIME CAN YOU RAP ABOUT THE SAME THING…..

      3. ok? he had a better verse on Money, Cash, Hoes. DMX had a betr verse on Murdergram. AND X BEAT JAY IN THAT BATTLE THEY HAD!!!!!

    109. First off, I respect DMX (first album I ever bought was And Then There Was X)and his opinion, but I have to disagree with him and his thoughts on Drake. It’s just comes off as one of the ‘old hip hop’ heads that cannot remotely accept something different from their era. Drake’s content isnt that far off from Q-Tips’, but never hear about any disses about him and what he raps about (BTW Im a big Q-Tip fan, cant wait for the next album, loved the Renaissance). Ive got nothing to say on Ross because he’s right about him, he lacks subject matter big time.

      1. Don’t compare Drake to Q-Tip. He’s nowhere near that level. He’s more like a mix of Nelly, Ja Rule, and Lil Wayne.

      2. @anonymous…Of course Drake hasnt had the career that Q-Tip has, though I honestly think the perception of Drake is off. Just because he popular that doesnt mean that automatically qualifies him with the Nelly’s etc…His content is actually profound and relative. It’s gets blinded by all the Drake dickriders, being with ymcmb, and record sales.

      3. Dude, give up. Drake is just another hot-at-the-moment rapper/singer. His shit has no replay value. In about 5-10 years, he won’t be as popular as he is now. His 15 minutes are about to fade soon.

      4. You have your opinions and I have mine. I think Drake’s nothing special and is over-hyped and you probably differ. Let’s leave it at that.

        And I’m not kidding about Drake having no replay value.

      5. “It’s just comes off as one of the ‘old hip hop’ heads that cannot remotely accept something different from their era.” –But DMX stated that he likes J. Coles music, how the hell is J. Cole not from this era!??

    110. I agree with X about Jay 100%.. Why? Well remember when Jay first was president of Def Jam all the artist was complaining. LL was even trying to battle him. Budden cd never came out.. X fell off.. Nas was signed then his career took a nose dive. Etc..

      1. All old artists who were no longer moving units. Business is business and some of these dudes caught feelings. If X was still moving units like Jay, he would still be on Def Jam

    111. Finally…The last real rapper there is, man. Not the only one, but at least he is real and doesn’t beat around the bush. How is he hating? THEY asked HIM questions and he answered them. Ross is a complete fraud and Drake DEFINITELY DOES try and change his voice when he raps. He talks nothing like he raps. The sound of him when he talks is completely different than the sound of his voice when he raps. He’s fake as fuck!

    112. Look man yall can call this hating but all it really is, is just a matter of opinion. Some people are gunna like Drake some people wont. I think its important to have this in hip-hop right now. We need more of a balance. Drake can represent the love hip-hop shit and guys like X can represent that street shit.

    113. I’m sure Drake isn’t impressed with a 40 yr old crack head, who wears a dog collar, and barks on records. And didn’t Ross extend a hand to X not to long ago? Burning bridges won’t speed up the comeback, if there even is one.

      1. And I’m sure DMX, a certified hip-hop legend, isn’t impressed by a former C.O. who thinks he’s a big-time drug mobster and a closet homosexual who sings more than he raps. He’s sober now and he doesn’t need Ross or Drake to help his career.

    114. any of yall niggas saying X aint real hip hop are either young or stupid. Tell me if you remember X, Canibus and NORE going in for like a 45 minute cypher on the funk flex show. that shit was hip hop. its a whole different art form than what the millennials are getting, I feel sorry for yall.

    115. Im thinkin of that scene in Walk Hard where dudes like “And I just want everyone out there to know I’m no longer mainlining acid or smoking PCP”

    116. FOR EVERYONE ON HERE HATING ON X THIS IS FOR YOU

      Are you retarded or just ignorant of a talented rapper? To say DMX aint lyrical is like sayin the KKK aint racist. You obviously are one of the dudes who listened to Party Up and just assumed thats all X was about. X has story telling ability (Damien 1, 2, and 3), the nigga is an expert poet(all his prayers), crazily creative (Spellbound) he can get grimey as fuck (Tales From the Darkside, Here Comes the Boom, Shut Em Down), and he can be on some positive type stuff (Slippin, Prayers, just his thoughts in general). Before you go makin a ridiculous accusation as to say X aint more lyrical than Ross please go do your homework on the MC. X’s resume is hella impressive in this rap shit. No1 could touch him in dissing (His Tupac/West Coast/ K-Solo diss), poetry, intensity, street credit, all dat. GTFOH you silly excuse for a hip-hop fan. Learn and think before you speak.

      MATTER OF FACT, GO LISTEN TO MURDERGRAM THEN COME BACK AND TELL ME ROSS IS BETTER, SHYT AFTER HEARIN THAT, TRY N TELL ME DRAKE IS BETTER (i have no beef wit drake and enjoy his music, but his hard talk isnt plausible and he jus not better than X imo)

    117. I never fought I would see the day were DMX would talk shit about Jay-Z but hold his tongue for Wayne.

      Jay and X go way back. Wayne was just a little snotty nose kid back then.

    118. I always said on here that Ross lacks subject matter, but still his music is better than most mainstream artists with the backing!

    119. X Is Just Speaking The Truth Whether You like it or not, “It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot” is One Of The Best Rap Albums Ever Made, Much Respect to X, Even If He ain’t been right for some years.

    120. Regarding his comments about Drake and Ross…everyone’s entitled to their own opinion. Kind of like how I find it hilarious that DMX recorded a song Machine Gun Kelly.

    121. loL, shout to the nigg* Schwarz…that fake Jay sh*tting headline was a premonition to this…3 hundred comments of people mad because DMX is not following the latest “like” protocol…loL…step out of the matrix my people…

    122. This shit has to stop people, “I listen to DMX so I must be hard” or “I listen to Drake so I get girls” or “I listen to Lupe so Im smart”….The people you listen to dont make who you are!!! That’s the definition of the word tool.

    123. i happen to think machine gun kelly is wack as fuck but i like how x judges for himself and doesn’t follow trends. the guy is unbreakable. most niggas would be dead having gone through what x has, and hes still the same old x. this was a real interview, dmx has more heart than just about anyone making music. the talent is still there, but the major label system stopped investing in him. let x get the same push fat fuck rick ross is getting, watch x blow the game up again. drake is a fraud, jay-z will ride drakes dick to stay hot, x does him. x has a crazy spirit, and the rap game is real soulless and fake right now. lotta plastic pimps and phonies running the game. x fan for life, through good and the bad.

    124. Guess it’s safe to say DMX is back to normal and back in the game and ready to smash on these fake ass niggas in hip hop that have polluted it, Double R :)…

      3. different dude from the dude above me but in the streets its def dip set or wutang.

        as far as the standard goes, you cant really count that because its not really official and we havent heard anything from them and az isnt in that as much as i wish he was. theyd be the only group that could lyrically keep up with slaughterhouse.

    126. Drake fans going to be hurt by this lol. They can call X all kinds of crackheads whatever, but what he aint wack and he ain’t fake. All these hip hop veterans are pissing me off hopping on these new artists dick to stay relevant. X fucks with whoever he wants cause he like they style not because of their album sales. It needed to be said and brother X stood up literally and said it. Thanks Darkman

    127. He had me dying at “All the nigga talks about is eat,like DAMN how much can you really eat” lol He is right about Ross

    128. Who fuckin with my favorite rappers:

      GAME
      NAS
      EMINEM
      MYSONNE
      YELAWOLF
      DMX
      Lupe

      Who fuckin with them??? none of your ****** ass Mainstream rappers, Hip Hop is dead, and they are the only real ones left!

      None of these rappers today’s music makes sense, all the same recycled garbage, teach me something, tell me a story, have a song that actually sticks to a concept, forget trying to have all your verses end with a punchline, teach me something, thats hip hop, not Young Money, not Gunit, not MMG!

      1. Whose fucking with them? Hopefully their wives and not you faggot. Apart from Dmx whose had plenty of sex with wardens in jail. I wonder if Rozzay ever fucked someone in the showers.

      2. Lmaooo, do some reasearch ya punk bitch, 50 wrote 4 hooks: Church for thugs, Special,How we do, and hate it or love it

        4 hooks, and on how we do, Game did 50’s verse and 50 edited it and made it his

        so if thats somehow “1/2” of Games album, then sure, 50 wrote the album,lmaooo

        get your facts straight cocksucker, 4 hooks doesnt make an album

    129. Thank you Mister X for speaking the truth. And we all know that Jay-Z is a bitch. He aint the mc he once was he just a poprapper now.

    130. HAHA, how hood is this dude? he doesnt know how to use a computer hahah thats mad funny, that and what he said about drake. I dont like his face. haha. Shame what happened to dog man though

    131. So he does not like Drake or Ross but he will do a song with MGK? No offense but that sounds pretty hypocritical if you ask me.

      1. How is he a hypocrite?He said he fucks with MGK cause he loves his energy, he likes his style. Hypocrite would be if he said that he didn’t like them cause they overated but fuck with MGK cause to boost up record sales

    132. Good for DMX, finally a dude that ain’t afraid to express his true opinions and not dick-ride whoever’s hot at the time.

    133. Dmx suck a mean dick, trust me I know. One day we got so high, had a threesome with his mama. Pussy wasn’t good, now I know where X came from, but D’s tight little asshole was juicy. He had some shit dripping on his thighs but we wiped it off and had fun. If he happens to read this comment, he’ll remember. Coz I remember that good dick I gave him then came on his forehead.
      Who wanna suck my dick?
      Its hard as a brick
      i don’t want no chick
      Finger fuck you with a stick
      Now your Anus is bloody
      Sympathy from me, naah hardly
      That was the freestyle he did for me before leaving. Haven’t seen him since but GOOD times

    134. X is lame as fuck and so are all you niggas who claim to be real heads and come on here and bash Drake and Ross and talkin like X was some hip hop god. x was good in his day but come on, this niggas time has passed and now he tryin to get pub by going at two of hte hottest rappers out there right now. BTW this nigga has an album and a show coming soon so he is looking for the publicity. And when did hip hop become about personal lives rather than the music. yeah Ross was a CO, I don’t give a fuck about that as long as he’s releasing hot shit, I’ll separate the music from the person. Too many of yall niggas on here catchin feelins like Ross or Drake stole money from yaall. FOH to all those lame ass niggas who repeat the same shit “Drake’s a fag who sings” “Ross a CO” Who gives a fuck! At the end of the day its about the music bitches.

      Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. you stupid nigga, foreal. How did he go at him? He was asked about them, he didn’t even mention. You be dick riding and it’s always the same story, “ahh he’s going at the “hottest rappers” to get attention.” Fuck outta here. to some, it’s actually about music and not attention. Why you think he don’t even fuck with twitter

      2. stupid n1gga, foreal. How did he go at him? He was asked about them, he didn’t even mention. You be dick riding and it’s always the same story, “ahh he’s going at the “hottest rappers” to get attention.” Fugk outta here. to some, it’s actually about music and not attention. Why you think he don’t even mess with twitter

      3. You dumb, foreal. How did he go at him? He was asked about them, he didn’t even mention. You be dik riding and it’s always the same story, “ahh he’s going at the “hottest rappers” to get attention.” Fugk outta here. to some, it’s actually about music and not attention. Why you think he don’t even mess with twitter

      4. It seems like he was just giving his honest opinion when they asked him a question..what did you expect him to do? Is he supposed to lie? The man is entitled to his opinion. I am a Pac fan and if someone asked if he liked Pac and he said no I can’t get mad at him. Then if they ask why I have to expect anything to come out of his mouth. I will say X is a legend and has established himself enough in the game to say whatever the hell he wants especially when they ask him for an honest answer. When your truthful that makes you a man not lame.

      5. you really think this is a publicity stunt
        the man said him self he doesnt care about twitter, he doesnt want people looking in to his life. and what is twitter used for?
        hes just being honest. x jus one of those guys that lets it out and aint scared of what the fans gonna react with.

    135. Finally someone that isn’t dickriding these faggot ass rappers, fuck drake & i’ve been saying for a while Ross lacks subject matter. If you dont respect X you dont know about hip hop FACT

    136. DMXs opinion would mean more if he came out with some hot shit like a new album or mixtape. but coming from a washed-up rapper that hasnt released quality material in years its kind of meaningless of him to get at the 2 hottest rappers in the game right now

      1. The rappers he got at are popular but they were talking about pushing the boundaries lyrically and we all know Ross and Drake ain’t doing shit for the genre (especially the former). Drake has talent, sometimes it’s corny though.

        I agree that to add credibility to what he’s saying he should put out something dope. Which he hasn’t…

      2. If he hadan album bout to drop everyone would say these comments were to hype it up. X is real. He says what the fuck he thinks thats that.

    137. THANK YOU DMX I don’t like neither one of them FUCK Young Money a bunch of annoying POP Rappers singing all over the record I hate Hip Hop now days YMCMB killed it Shoutout to Common for dissin drake so bad he’s Canada Dry Lol I’m always gonna take the legends side over these stupid new school rappers HIP HOP IS DEAD.

    138. I am hip hop –

      A certified crack head you mean… Seriously. Bro. Are you really gonna sit here and hype up yo man X like he’s the same person from Its Dark? Yes, a man is entitled to his opinion, but when your opinion consists of trashing other people who you’ve never even worked with, it comes off like the ramblings of a drug addicted moron. AKA The Tom Sizemore of Hip Hop.

      1. Drake never worked with Common & vice versa
        Ross never worked with 50 & vice versa

        look at it from X view what he says he’s did, done or gonna do it

    139. Lol i ain frontin on DMX but you haters make no sense! Sayin my career is almost over LMFAO!!! Let me hit ya`ll with some stats.

      2 plat albums
      12 #1 hits
      gold selling EP
      Grammy Nominated MIXTAPE

      and I did that shit in 3 years!!!! So how you gon tell me my 15 mins are up, NIGGA I`M JUS GETTIN STARTED

      So what ya`ll gon say Im Gay huh or Im a fag huh, man i get pussy 4 times a week, you hear that 4 TIMES(go listen to marvins room)

      I run this game, YMCMB Run this game!!! Stupid Mortherfuckers

      Haters make me rich!!!

      DRIZZY OVO……….. BITCHES!!!

      1. 50 Cent outsold you in week sells and overall sells but couldn’t stay relevant.

        singles are singles, but lets talk that. Diddy had 10 number 1 singles and he’s not relevant.

        All the sells and money in the world couldn’t change the fact that your the new Ja Rule. Guys like you, Ra Rule, and Nelly should sell a lot of ablums. Kids, women, and gay people buy your albums. Not the real hiphop culture. So relax your time is almost up “Sweet”

      2. no matter how much pussy u get or how many albums u sell .. You still gay!!!! go back to … degrassi the next generation….

        X IS A LEGEND.

        With love from Mexico…

      3. Mate look at DMX stats and then talk shit. He has more than that. At one point he had 3 albums in the charts, but half you little kids was in dippers then.

    140. I don’t mind Drake, but DMX sure knows that the guy is overly-commercialized and does what old men tell him to. Like the man said: “The industry don’t give a fuck about u, but couldn’t make a dime without u.” and “I’m not an industry artist, I’m an artist in the industry.”

    141. When I read this article I said to myself, I know what all the rebuttals will be and I was right. Look, for you young guys, it’s no surprise X feels that way towards Jay. They both have history and they both are very competitive. Weather it’s true or not is another story but thats how he feels and he could be right or wrong. I love Jay and everyone knows Jay is all business all the time.

      That being said, lets get to Ross and Drake. This doesn’t surprize me either. X comes from a age where you have to have skillz in order to be respected and clearly Ross has major flaws in his character and lyrices. Drake on the other hand is way to soft, to corny, and not a freestyler. It’s not what a real MC is all about. X with all his flaws, knows hiphop. So you have to respect his view point. He’s not selling an album so you can’t say he’s looking to sell records. He’s already famous and it doesn’t matter if he has albums out now or later. Bottom line, you just heard a real MC speak from the heart…

      1. are you high ? Wayne is a legend, this dude been on the seen for almost 20 years and is part of the reason why southern hip hop has gotten this far.

      2. Are you high. Weezy is far from the legend that you say help further southern hip hop. I think Scarface,UGK, and OutKast did that.

      3. @Roger Rabbit: Agreed.
        @Anon: Are you fucking high? Southern hip hop was built of the back of no limit, old cash money (not ym),Geto Boys, Outkast, Little Brother etc. Wayne was a detriment to southern hip hop. If in gotten this far you mean single handedly destroyed hip hop/rap’s credibility, then yeah your fucking clued up son. /s

      4. man that guy who replied to you sayin lil waynes been in the game for 20 years and said southern rap got this far is a stupid motherfucker wayne was a little kid bitch 20 years back he made his first appearence in like 1999, geto boys outkast and others were never signed to no limit records which was owned by master p, nothing to do with cash money. geto boys, UGK these people built the dirty south style that other guy dont know shit

      5. Drake wayne a d ross are all basic ass abc type rappers..aint got shiit on X. Cant wait to catch u next month. Sadly wakka flakkas sharing rhe stage..thats gona suuck but oh well ill still be right at the stage waitin.

    143. Charlamagne the God had me rolling with his reaction when he heard X say “He aight,man.Just all talks about is eatting,And And uh uh girlfriend too much.Im like Damn,How much can a nigga Eat”…….Funny Ass Shit but he is soo right though

    144. DMX hasnt been good in soooooo long. Come on, even Drake and Ross haters gotta know…DMX is washed up, he has to do this to stay relevant.

      1. Stay relevant for who? You? Your a fucking joke while dude has achieved hip hop legend status. Dude can retire at any time and his rep will be intact, unlike mr xl burger king and canada dry.

      2. DMX is not a legend. Based on what? I dont think any of his albums were even classic. Hes a bum, if you think crack and in and out of jail and not paying child support is cool, good for you.

      3. Its Dark and Hell is Hot
        The Source = 4/5
        All Music = 4/5

        Just that album alone is a classic, not to mention some of the others, so you can go and fuck of yourself.

      4. You niggas throw out the word classic way too much. None of Xs album been classics. Flesh and It’s Dark were very good but aint on no classic level.

        Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      5. he has no classic album! he has albums with classic SONGS, and hit records. classics gotta be start to finish, every song sick as hell…timeless music, thats a classic. the source? benzino and those boys were taking money for good ratings, look it up.. and even then, 4 outta 5 isnt classic…5 outta 5 is! the source also gave De La Soul-Art Official Intelligence a damn 3 outta 5, that shit was a 4.5-or classic (5 outta 5) in my eyes.

      6. that album was upon the better ones of that year. It went 4x platinum, people were bumping that shit on the streets, it’s not just the songs nigga. even if you don’t consider it classic, he was a hip-hop heavyweight in the 90s along with Biggie, Snoop, Jay etc

    145. He is right about Ross & all rappers like him. One sided. The greatest MC’s had various topics that they spoke on. There is more to life than just trappin. If they would like to only rap about one thing then I will say the same thing I always have. HIP HOP NEEDS GENRES. Then DMX wouldn’t be as angry at Drake b/c it would be classified in a different category.

    146. Yall call my man X a crackhead. This man hasn’t done shit in years, but can still sell out shows. If this man puts out an album next week, no doubt in my mind he will go platinum. Now if Drake goes away for 5yrs and decided to come back,he will get treated like Lil Zhane. Yall can talk about Drake hits, but how many classics he have under his belt. X is a rebel he has always did his own thing, thats why Jay was able to progress over Jay. I’m not suprised X said this about Drake, but I bet you Drake won’t threaten to body X.

      1. lol ok, it would take dmx like 12 years to go plat these days. LL was goin plat to, lol only guy pushin units heavy from the 90s are Hov and Em.

      1. ^well said

        drake = fake faggot toy with major marketing dollars behind him for being a safe butter soft house nigga making simp love jams that suk

        dmx = wild card every major is scared of for being a wild street nigga with too much heart and pride to bow down to some dick suck

        dmx changed the game from shiney suits to timbs and hoodies again and drake changed the game by proving a gay can have success making rap and r and b love jams

    147. “There will be blood in the water and the sharks will come”

      Everyone knows now that Drake is fake. Before you know it, everyone will take jabs!

    148. My response about these guys in the article on Jeezy.

      What happened with this young man is the shift in what’s popular. If you recall my battle back in 07 with Kayne west. He had the more pop/gay swag and crowd on his side; while I came with the shoot em up beat em up style that niggas need to be men in today’s society. But as the media would have it they played me off as the bad guy. But more on Jeezy he’s suffering this with guys like Wayne, Rozzay, Drake, all of them are much softer than him and many would say they sold out but not really; this is who they really are and feel comfortable being in side(gay swag and pop) I never got into wearing the rainbow color clothes or very tight jeans, or tried to act like I was a jean designer but these guys did that’s why you question who are they trying to target, certainly not the hardcore listeners. So if Jeezy wants his throne back he’s going to have to do trap 2012 not trap from 2007. You need catchy beats and catchy hooks. Stop making depression like songs, make something crackheads/pill poppers can smoke to when they’re at home with no life.

    149. Man real talk DMX is washed up now, look through the whole interview nigga cant sit down, he still hitting that pipe, look at his ways, cant stop fidgeting, Don’t get me wrong he had a lot of classics, but he’s lost it now, and to the nigga who said he go platinum haha yea right, what song since he came out has been hot and had memorable punch lines in it? Y’all hopped on the band wagon cuz he’s dissing Drake and Rick Ross(not really dissing but y’all know what I mean) DMX should have collab with them to make himself relevant again, cuz Real Talk everyone forgot about X, and its only a matter of time before he gets locked back up, this nigga had the world by the balls, and blew everything on Crack, Of course no label is going to invest in a crack head, He thinks he’s cool cuz he could fly fucking toy helicopters on a set while the company paying Jet Li to be there, that just goes to show what kind of business man he is, that aint boss shit, thats a crack head move right there, should have handle his business better instead of blaming Jay Z, Look at Jay he’s a smart business man

      1. you’re a clown. DMX is same as he ever was. he was always a bug out. could never stand still. always spoke his mind. give him a major label push, marketing dollars, and watch him blow these no talent fag niggas like drake and rick ross out the water. politics and bullshit. still go more talent in one of his scrapped books than either of those frauds on their best day. DMX. fuckin legend.

      2. Dawg he’s still hitting that pipe, I know crack heads and his behavior is very crackish, nigga u in a radio interview sit yo ass down, look how Angela and Envy and every looking at him, its an uncomfortable situation, and like I said don’t get me wrong DMX was a legend, he did rule for the time that he was on top and Im a fan of his music, but look what I wrote, I said now “NOW” he is washed up, only a few can come back and remain on top, Like Jay Z for example, and stop with the whole Drake and Rick ross not being talented, Dawg this aint WWF, its music You either like it or you don’t, your making rap into wrestling match, how stupid would it look if AL Green and Marvin Gaye were beefing, or the Temptations and the Jackson 5, thats the problem with u kids today, your always trying to bring the next man down, for you to constantly stay on Drake and Rick Rosses nuts always dissing them show what kind of man u are, u should be congratulating them for making it in this white mans world, instead of trying to destroy them, who side are u on?

      3. Well we can see you love sucking both Drake and ross’s dick mad cause X has no repect for your favorite artist, yeah we can see that.

      4. its not a white mans world anymore lil boy. that mentality holds us back. quit making excuses for your failures. dmx sturggled with drugs from the jump and was always honest about it. thats cuz hes a real person. not a contrived manufactured fake built for purchase like a drake or rick ross. dmx doesnt like them, his opinion is worth more than ours cuz hes climbed that mountain. men that listen to drake and rick ross and defend him online share one common characteristic, they’re not very bright.

    150. I found his comments pretty realistic and honest. Of course he’s barely relevant anymore but everyone knows hes a true legend. The guy may be out of touch (can’t use a computer? what?) but him biting at Ross and Drake and Jay shows he’s not trying to suck up to the industry.. who knows he may find a niche in the rap game again.

    151. Wow whoever is hating on DMX does not know the impact of his music in hip-hop and has no respect for the plight of this man. What if he died of drug overdose and not Whitney? Why do we wait until our artists die to appreciate them? Ridiculous! And to the people who said DMX should hop on a track with rappers he just does not like, yall are FAKE AND HAVE LOW INTEGRITY. Yall are the people that would fuck with people you don’t like just for money or fame? THE WORST! no heart or respect for honesty. I’m not a Drake basher, Ross is def FAKE! DMX is just calling it the way he sees it.

    152. Here’s my problem with this. First of all, nothing but respect for DMX’s opinion, because I agree with him. But people will look at DMX as a “hater” and then resort to his past fuck-ups as an excuse to say, “who is DMX to voice his opinion about other rappers?”

      This is how a change in the direction of hip-hop gets started. It starts with CALLING OUT the bullshit in hip-hop. Drake and Ross are doing their thing, but Drake is so r&b these days and Officer Ross is a former CO. Back when DMX came out, and Em came out, then 50 came out (1998-2003) this would never have been acceptable (A drake or a ross coming into the rap game). We as fans allowed it and accepted it.

      X… Respect

      1. look at your post and read it carefully again, your name dropping to artist Drake and Rick Ross, these two rappers do not make up the Rap and Hip HOp scene right now, this is just 2 rappers, their are thousands of rappers, y’all just hate cuz their successful, DMX said he didn’t like Drakes hair LMFAO really, the one thing to poke fun of Drake is his hair? For reals tho, if you don’t like Drake then don’t listen to his music simple as that, u act like sum one has a gun to your head and says “hey listen to this Drake song” truth is no one forces u to listen to no one, be your own man, Hip Hop in the 70’s was not the same in the 80’s, hip hop in the 90’s was not the same in the 00’s and hip hop as of right now will not be the same later on in life, Run DMC would be considered whack today, so would DJ Cool Herc, and me typing those lines hurt trust me cuz it feels disrespectful, but the truth is Rap will never go backwards it will just move forward, like I said no one is forcing you to listen to these new rappers, shit bump the old classics,

      2. @Real Talk, what the fuck you spouting dawg? Pshhh, Run DMC would be considered wack today?! Really, I don’t quite believe you homie. Drake ius far more corny than them. Get that dick out of your ear!!

    153. I like DMX and I agree with him about Drake. I remember back in the day dmx was good but never a lyrical giant. His music was good though and today I look back at him better than I did back in his day because the competition is weaker now

    154. Is it me or is everyone really tripping these days, how the fuck is everyone going to hate on Drake? Why is everyone obsessed with him, like really y’all are the ones who keep Drake alive in every article, there cud be an article that says “kendrick Lamar talks about his new cd”{22 post} or “Common talks about his upcoming movie”{50 posts} but hey “DMX says DRAKE is Wack”{455 posts} lol man they hate does not stop coming, I guess thats how you know your doing something right, why is no one talking about how DMX, wasted his god giving talent by doing drugs, and blowing all his money away, nigga don’t need no Record deal homie needs an intervention and go to Rehab to get help, its sad just to watch this video, if u ever want to know a mans life look at his eyes{no Homo} but look at DMX eyes he just looks sad and depressed, niggas Jaw cant stay still, his body movements are just pure crackish, he said Ross don’t impress him, but yet Ross is living the high life, yea he was a CO, yea he used the real Rick Ross name, but y isn’t anyone dissing nas for calling himself Escobar(a real Gangster) huh because Nas aint in the limelight no more, face it y’all hate because these artist are winning, you guys say Drake makes songs for bitches, what part of that sentence is gay, “HE MAKES SONGS FOR BITCHES” why would u get worked up over it, like I said look at how many posts there is every time Ross, DRake, and LIl Wayne are mentioned in the article.

      1. you’re what we describe as a follower, we don’t consider your comments as REAL, so we don’t TALK to you. B e Z

    155. This sums up everything about Rick Ross’ lyrical skills. “He’s aight, man. He talks about eating and girlfriends too much. How much can a nigga eat? How much weed can you smoke?”…ROFL.

      Best the X has ever said,LMAO!!!!

    156. that sums up ros…he cant spit about his life so he raps these fairy tales….and i like drakes rnb but his rapping is corney….dmx is a real dude…its his opinion so calm down people

      1. When X said eatting.He meant Getting money. Thats what us nigga up north call eattin. He saying that Ross talks about gettin money and girlfriends. He is right.All Ross’s albums talk about the same thing. He needs to show us a lil more personal dept. He needs to talk about other thing then just this is all X was saying. He was just voicing his honest opinion about Ross. Why are y’all getting so upset.

    157. I always liked X as an artist but i never knew he was such a funny dude lol I was crackin up a lot watching this interview!

    158. it dont matter. drake is bad. drake has talent. i don’t give a fuck what anybody says. drake can go with the best of them. but i like dmx too. so whatever jew.

    159. X need to stay in his lane before Ross bodies his career. Where 5.0 at? Where Jeezy at? thats right none of them niggas on the hottest list. This nigga needs to release a hot joint before he can talk about someone elses song. If I remember correctly this nigga was the same guy who made a song with Sisqo. FOH.

      Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. ROSS? Boding someone??? HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HAAAAAAAAAAA!!! OMG!!! HA!!! HA!! HA!!! RICK ROSS can’t body ANYONE!! That dude sux!!!!! WOW. I miss Hip Hop.

    160. I agree with him 100% about Drake, I dont like nothing about him either, not one song, one verse, one interview, I just dont like son at all

    161. OK HOLD UP. ROSS DON’T GOT TO PROVE SHIT TO YOU NIGGAS. YOU NIGGAS ARE FUCKING CORNY ASS FUCK ON THIS SITE. DMX you’re a goddamn liar nigga, look at your catalog. Thug shit, money shit, pussy shit, some introspective shit. Pull me over on some cop shit, I’ll bust your fucking crack head open. Rappers make some money and think they can’t get touched. Nigga you got a problem with Drake? Get up in the niggas grill and speak on it then. You up on the radio bangin on the young boy like it’s serious, where they do that?

      YMCMB and Jay Z bout they money and you about a pipe. Recording with MGK? Fo real? I listened to that joint, it was ass my nigga.

      Fuck outta’ here X.

      1. MMG groupie mad as fuck.

        why the hell would he get up in Drake’s grill? He was asked about his thoughts on those guys, you buffoon

    162. Drake, Ross and Wayne will continue to make music for their fans. DMX can keep bitching along with the rest of you, don’t NOBODY care.

      The 90’s is over X, pull ya pants up old man.

      1. we care u bitch made nigga…we the real heads of hiphop care if there’s anyone left out there that can speak his mind and keep it real like back in the day

    163. If yawl really want to hear that grimy 90’s sound then listen to Lloyd Banks. He does it well. But you’re so OBSESSED with hating on Drake and Ross you don’t even notice other artist.

      1. Since when did Lloyd Banks start makin music dat people can even digest???? dat mafaka made buy his 1st album hoping it was gud, boy was I wrong, dat album sucked donkey balls, I culdnt even listen to the whole album from biggining to end…fuck lloyd banks he was never a good rapper from the biggining…

    164. These people get hated on SO MUCH:
      Jay Z
      Drake
      Wayne
      Ross
      Kobe Bryant
      LeBron James
      Michael vick
      Kanye West
      Michael Jackson (when he was alive)
      P Diddy

      Yawl hate these niggas don’t you? LOL! I know you do. You can’t knock the hustle or the talent. Be MAD, Be MAD, be MAD, be MAD you lame ass nerds.

      1. NONE of these niggas paying your bills you bitch made nigga! So shut the fuck up and sit the fuck back with your homo ass.

    165. I agree with DMX . damn x is too real
      thats why i always like his swagger
      rick ross doesnt impress me either

    166. Dont hate DMX for speaking his mind!!!!!!!!!!! It isnt like he went on a rant about these dudes at his own discretion, he was asked his opinion and he kept it real with his self. Besides, is niggas really defending rick ross? Anybody that lies about their background aint shit. Theres no integrity in him so i dont respect him as a man, so i cant respect him as an artist. So DMX is right. I dont know about the drake part, tho.

    167. Respect the man’s opinion…but as much as someone might hate on Drake…Drake will always be nicer than MGK….

      1. MGK may not be as “nice” as Drake in your opinion, but X likes dude and even says hes a real standup guy. X gives it straight. No sugar coating. He is and always will be a legend in my eyes and the eyes of alot of hip-hop fans. I personally cannot stand Ross. He is a fake, untalented punk. literally a PUNK. Lying to his fans then trying to cover it up by saying he needed to do whatever to keep his family eating and it was for the interest of his dealing. Apparently hes not hustling everyday.

    168. WAAAAAAAAA! SNIFF SNIFLE WAAAAAAAAAA! THIS GUY DOESN’T LIKE WHO I LIKE!

      MOMMY TELL THIS OLDER GUY TO LEAVE MY FRIENDS (THATINEVERMETBEFOREBUTJUSTWANNABEDOWNWITHBECAUSETHEYRETHECOOLPEOPLE) ALONE!

      HE SCARE ME! HE. AAAAAA. CRAAAACCCCKKKK HHHHEEEADD!

      HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      Y MAD? HE AIN’ MENTION UR NAME, HE SAID ROSS & DRAKE!

    169. None of them Young Money fags even right there own songs..Look at the credits in there albums.Its like 10 niggas writing one song.u lil new age dickriders have been tricked by a C.O and a couple childhood millionares with showbiz connects 2 blow up(wayne and Drake).props 2 DMX for not falling 4 that bullshit

    170. THe kids are mad!! LOL I’m glad DMX was brave enough to speak against the bullshit the industry passes off as “fresh”… them new jacks got it waaaaaaay too easy, and they acting like they’re untouchable, ok, keep believing that young dudes, just don’t complain when that day comes.

    171. Having bashed this man in the past, I actually feel some compassion toward him with consideration to his issues. Looking in his eyes, you can see that he has his demons. I hope that he can keep things as clean as possible for an extended period. I’ll say this, he’s one funny dude.

    172. Who else can give an interview like this that keeps it real. DMX always keeps it real but he never hate on anyone he just gives his opinion.

    173. Doesn’t like Drake, but likes Cole. X has good taste. He may not be relevant now, but he is a rap legend. Nuff said.

      1. Yeah and legends shouldn’t be heard from especially hating ones. So he should try shutting the fuck up and try bowing down to niggas that’s relevent not the butts of crack jokes.

      2. Bowing down to people of relevance. That’s the world we live in now. Sucking on the hottest cock, then moving onto the next one. No integrity, no principles.

      1. Don’t compare a legendary 90s rapper with that clown Butt fuck rap bitch ass punk that everyone dick rides. Having the respect of lil wayne means nothing he’s terrible too. You are brainwashed by the mainstream

      2. “got the respect of lil wayne”. Who the fuck is lil wayne? He signed drake, tyga, mack mane, nikki minaj, gudda gudda. faggot ass

      3. Ummm….the only artist in history to have his first five studio albums debut at number one is DMX. That’s a lot more impressive than having the “respect” of Lil Wayne.

        And DMX at least stayed true to his roots. He didn’t have to pretend to act like he could sing on some of his records. He didn’t try to market himself to women and children between the ages of 12-16….unlike those 2 rappers you named.

      4. Let’s not forget Lil Wayne is the same artist that needed 10 years to finally get his first number one album.

        10 years….

        But you guys keep pretending like Wayne is some hip hop god. I wonder how many of you are still listening to Tha Block is Hot, Lights Out or 500 Degreez?

    174. i sweat dmx, bring your album. let fans judge it. i just heard a song featuring machine gun kelly and it was pop as hell. so come on dmx. you’re a politician. that’s what the fuck your are

      1. I thot dat X was the only one on crack, bt dis kennyken is beyond crack, say shit like “DMX is a politician” mafaka give me som of wat u r smokin…

    175. This fool must not realize he has been a fukking joke for the past 10 years. Hating on Drake and Ross but making songs with white boy Machine gun kelly wack ass makes him more of a joke.

    176. DMX is the fuckin man calling it how he sees it, fuck your feelings hoe ass nikka have a cry into your pillow and write about it in your dream journal if you disagree.

      1. Why would DMX take anyone’s advice that posts a comment on this site he doesn’t know how to use a computer and he has more money than anyone that posts on here anyway

      2. quit speaking on other niggas, shut the fuck up. he was asked a question. he’s not gonna play it cool and say “oh yeah that nigga I totally hate is a cool guy” fuck is that? you wanna hold hands in elementary school too? no he calls it like he sees it, it’s his opinion and he’s not gonna sugarcoat it.

      3. No comment is for the weak, DMX obviously doesn’t care what sort of backlash his comments will or could create. Which makes him a real man to me, who the fuck cares if he is on crack its his life an he got the cash for it none of my business. Fuck most of the most influential songs of the last century were written by someone who was high off something whether you want to believe it or not drugs are a part of the culture of hip hop, you or no one on a internet forum preaching is gonna change it.

      4. LMAO

        no comment.

        okay, if someone asked any nigga on this site his thoughts about Drake. NOT EVEN DRAKE. any popular rapper in the game period.

        you think any of us would say no comment? why should DMX? because he’s famous and in the music industry? fuck outta here, you self-righetous goof

    177. Haha I love it, finally an emcee who’s not afraid to talk shit about rappers who deserve it out of fear of alienating some of their girl fans.

    178. if Drake doesnt say nothing after Ludacris and Common dissed his ass and now DMX…he’s a str8 bitch…i doubt he’s gonna open his mouth cuz we know Drake is a bitch as for Ross…i dont think he wants it with the dog…WRRRRR

      1. Whatever faggot, this cat is washed nobody hears his songs cats only look at these ignant ass videos to see if he do something stupid. Why would they respond? His diss is as meaningless as yours to them.

      2. only real hip hop artists respond when stepped to. we know drake aint real hip hop–he saw that with how he let common sort him out lol talked about his family down to his heritage & drake released a “statement” as a reply. Drake should just do R&B/pop & leave hip hop alone…he aint about it.

    179. DMX is the fucking man. Drake is the worst rapper in the game, aside from Soulja Boy who has done nothing with himself. I would take Lil B over Drake, because at least I can think that Lil B is joking.

    180. Who the hell looks up to crackheads. Legend my ass as soon as this fucking moron sucked on the devils dick it was over. Get your black ass outta here with that hating and try making a decent song for the first time in 10 years.

    181. Who the hell looks up to crackheads. Legend my azz as soon as this fucking moron sucked on the devils dick it was over for him. Get your black azz outta here with that hating and try making a decent song for the first time in 10 years.

This is about Drake being shitted on…on live radio and video…for being a softcore rapper who talks shit by a respected, fearless, tough as nails, veteran of the same industry who talk shit with the best of ’em. Drake don’t want NO PARTS of this shit here.

      All of ya’ll trying to come Drake’s aid…that’s cool. Talk what you want about D. Everybody know Drake ain’t gonna do it.

      Ha.

    183. love DMX and await the first comment below me that says ‘who cares what DMX thinks etc’ – cause those people are the kind of people who’d eat turdcake if it was manufactured at a big enough scale

    184. I ain’t a fan of DMX and never was but i agree with him. Jay-Z is a bitch and only got big words when their is no competition. After Biggy died he said he was king of NY. Drake is nothing but a ridiculous wack rapper ans singer lol.

      I don’t like hyped rappers like J. Cole to or Kendric Lamar. Try to be yourself and what someone else want you to be. Nuff Said

    185. Co-sign to every word!!

      On the Rick Ross issue, his lack of diversity comes down to his complete fakeness.

      His lyrics and personna are not his reality and he therefore has to spend his whole energy focussin on keepin the facade up.

      For people speaking the truth (like DMX) its effortless so they can focus on branchin out.

      fuck officer ricky!!

    186. I might be wrong but didn’t DMX say he wouldn’t mind signing to MMG when he was in prison? I agree with a lot of what he said but this is a pathetic attempt at gaining some buzz, nobodys checking for him anymore and rightly so.

      1. if u listen to X he probably wouldnt mind signin to MMG , (he didnt even kno who they were to they broke it down) but knowing its an artist label like ross that raps about everythin DMXs has hated for time the flashy lifestyle etc he wouldnt sign with them for that image.

    187. DMX back in the rap game ready to bang on gay ass Young Money and Taylor Gang, lets get hip hop back my nigga…

    188. Charlemagne needs a baseball bat to the teeth, always trying to stir and start up shit. I mean damn, the nigga just came home from jail…

    189. blah blah blah if u sold 45 million records. why cant he sell half of 1 million now?? crackhead x is garbage now. nobody wants to hear that old damien shit about dogs n shit. this is 2012 not 2000 nigga. dont diss for publicity put out music!!!! thats why u dont hear shit from 50 cent anymore and jeezys almost extinct. kreayshawn is unheard of now. anytime somebody goes to beef or talks down on rozay never makes it

      1. Rick Ross never gone platinum! All Jeezy albums gone platinum! His last one went gold already…Ross takes a year to go gold! what a joke!

      2. Listen Real talk you fuckin homo, he was ASKED questions by someone, he didn’t go in there talking about the shit, you stupid fuck!! How the fuck do you know if he can sell or not now? He hasn’t put anything out! I guarantee when he puts a new album out it will sell! STUPID FUCK!

    190. Everyone talking that rozay so successful. I keep seeing dude everywhere on tv and on billroads yet when i checked his numbers. they suck.. last time i check number don’t lie

    191. But I bet he expects people to be impressed with a rapper who does crack and keeps getting locked up for it. smh

      THIS NIGGA HAS KIDS AT HOME LIKE “WHERE IS DADDY??? STILL SMOKING CRACK LIKE HE ENJOYS THE JAILHOUSE GANG RAPE!!!”

      DMZ LIKES THE WAY MEN SMELL. FACT!!!!

    192. Im young but you new era fans of hop hop need to pack it up….. All X said was he dosent like anything about Drake, but ummmm who said he had too? You dummies are so caught up behind hype and not real music… And in this clip the real diss was to Jay-Z…. Hope of the penis real quick and start listening and stop hearing

    193. MY NIGGA…THANK YOU DMX… It Couldn’t Have Been Said Any Better Cause I’m 100% SURE That There Are A Bunch Of Other Artist In The Game That Feel The Same Way X Does About RICK ROSS & DRAKE… They Just Don’t Have The Balls To Say It.. REAL TALK!!! show more show less

      1. Rap game is FRAUD! The game needs regulation….all this whack ass rappers….come on. In the 90’s and early 200os i was buying CDS 5 at a time and still couldnt keep up….Last CD I purchased was Tupac….now what they tell ya. These rappers now are like women!

    194. X just summed up what I’ve said about Ross for years,”He’s aight, man. He talks about eating and girlfriends too much. How much can a nigga eat? How much weed can you smoke? Let’s talk about something else..”

      Most people think he was talking about Ross eatting as food.He meat eattin as in getting money. Thats all Ross really talks about. He doesnt ever change from that. Im Ross fan but X is right on that. I wished he would add a lil more variety to his music.

    195. X is speaking the absolute truth right here. Whether he’s relevant or not right now is not the point. Plus anyone relevant is just gonna kiss Drake and Ross’ ass anyway. Drake’s voice is annoying and Ross is overrated and one dimensional. Salute X! We need more telling it how it really is.

    196. OKAY HE SAYS HE DOESNT LIKE DRAKE MUSIC BUT HE USED HIS SONG FOR “lAST HOPE” OFF DRAKES MIXTAPE THE “COMBACK SEASON”? CRACKHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    197. I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home.read more makecash16. om

    198. Dmx suck a mean dick, trust me I know. One day we got so high, had a threesome with my uncle. His ass wasn’t good, but D’s tight little asshole was juicy. He had some shit dripping on his thighs but we wiped it off and had fun. If he happens to read this comment, he’ll remember. Coz I remember that good dick I gave him then came on his forehead.
      Who wanna suck my dick?
      Its hard as a brick
      i don’t want no chick
      Finger fuck you with a stick
      Now your Anus is bloody
      Sympathy from me, naah hardly
      That was the freestyle he did for me before leaving. Haven’t seen him since but GOOD times

    199. DMX better be smooth. I think “them niggas” about ready to whack him so they can get some pay offs from his catalogs…stay tuned. Dont want to see the dog put to sleep. Just get back to what u do my dude.

      1. YOU betta be smooth nigga u aint bout dat beef!! u n dem niggas can cum down here for X cuz u fuk wit X u gtta go thru us philly niggas first!!! real shit n hidin ya name shows u a pussy im d rock south philly cum in da south n lets get it nigga…##SPG

    200. I respect DMX for always being real and honest but it’s kinda interesting that he doesn’t like Drake but he used his instrumental from “the last hope”. He must of listened to the mixtape or at least the song to wanna use that beat no!!!? Drake is pretty dope minus all the singing he does but I do agree with DMX when he said Rick Ross is over rated and talks about the same sh*t over and over. DMX you got another chance to get your Life and Career back on track so I wish you all the best. Give us another “Get at me Dog” classic please. And I know there’s a lot of gorgeous Women out there but if you got around 10 kids X its time to be a bit more careful with these Chicks. Good luck with the new Album DMX do ya thang.

    201. It’s kind of funny how this is a 20 minute interview full of interesting stuff and the headline that gets pulled out is ‘dmx does not like drake is not impressed by rick ross’. WTF

    202. I used to have mad respect for Dmx but after hearing about his alleged sextape with Swizz and Jada, using a ruff ryder, Biggie was ready to die.

      1. Way ahead of you, already started last night with your momz. Darn,she hungry. Sorry if she dead. Naah, not really.

    203. DMX was saying all that shit when he was locked up.

      Papi was eating my ass crack while singing some Drake tunes for me. Niggas even taste some of my shit i forgot to clean out that same day.

    204. Finally. Someone besides 50 cent that sees through the fat boy rozay. MMG is a fad!! Most people don’t know b/c they got tunnel vision and believe in rumors like 50 fell off. Crazy?? 50 got dope mixtapes, dope rimes, and nice beats. MMG is COMMERCIAL all day!! Wale should have made up his own independent label and Meek Mill secretly wants to be with G-Unit. Fat boy Rozay AINT saying nothing. All he does is recycle his rimes like Drake. DMX is a real nigga with issues but one thing he doesnt have a problem with, is selling his soul to sell units. And his music will always be remembered.

      1. @ AP
        You stoopid or something?? With 50’s real rap, riming style that are pretty much biographies, WILL NEVER fall off. He can always write/rap something ‘new’ versus something recycled and boring like Drake, Rozay. I like Weezy though and Tyga. Rozay was too scared to battle 50 so Rozay took the high road. Lloyd Banks alone is dope too. You must be out of your mind and fan of MMG to think that 50 fell off. Have you heard street king, big ten, war angel, forever king, self destruction and “they burned me”…… I dont think so. Otherwise you wouldnt say no dum shyte like that. Stop jocking MMG. They suxx….except for Wale.

      2. Umm dude I dont listen to MMG and I can care less about them. The fact is no one cares about 50 anymore. He is irrelevant in both markets, mainstream and underground. He has 1 classic that’s it bro.

      3. hey AP, you’re a fuckin idiot man. 50 has only one classic?? GTFOH man…On all of his albums, production is always superb and so is everything else. You’re stupid. Rick Ross hasn’t even sold a fuckin 100th of what 50 has sold. The rap game is so garbage nowadays that people actually think Rick Ross is good. Man of the year?? FUckin faggot writers for magazines who wrote that bullshit.

      4. @bizzalls….record sales does not equivelate to classic. And why you attacking Ross like I give a damn. (I thought I posted that earlier)….50 lacks skills and longevitity proves it. He used gimmicks to get to the top (going at every mc possible) and when people got tired of it his music couldnt back him up…50 is done, get over it.

    205. 45 million? In your dreams. X had a line off Great Depression where he said he’s sold 15 million. He had one more album that did platinum, so I could believe 25, 30 million, but no way this barking crack head has sold 45 million.

    206. I’ll say this about X. Back when he came up, you had to earn success the hard way. Today, all you need is a rich boss, a popular label and success is certain. Drake’s success must bother X, and that’s fine, but to talk smack about somebody you’ve never worked with, let alone met, comes off like a jealous old man who’s been hitting the pipe for too long, and who can’t see the bridges he’s burning. Ross extends a hand to sign this bum and he talks smack about him too? Not smart.

      1. Y U TAKIN’ UP FOR DRAKE, HE PAYIN’ U?

        IF DRAKE, ROSS AND JAY WERE NOT MAKIN’ THAT BREAD WOULD U EVEN CARE? HO’ UR COMMENT SPEAKS VOLUMES.

      1. Your right he has his own opinion. Whether if he was asked or not, this was posted yesterday and is now over 600 comments. My point is people get in their feelings too much over this dude. Whether if its love or hate.

    207. “I don’t like anything about Drake. I don’t like his fucking voice. I don’t like what he talks about. I don’t like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Nothing.” HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    208. X is a Legend. This interview is the best I’ve seen in a while. There were like 2 main quotes that made me laugh:

      . How much can a nigga eat?
      . I dont like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Nothing.

    209. The rap game is depending on FUTURE like a bungee cord. Since FUTURE put hip hop on his back the radio is no longer dominated by barking repetitive crack heads (dmx)

      1. SO U WENT TO A SHOW, AIN’T GET NO WOMAN’S NUMBER, AIN’T HAVE A GOOD TIME, BUT NOTICED X HAS HERPES ON HIS NECK? N!GGA U GAY.

        COMMENT FAIL FCUKBOI

    210. the rap game right now is not very masculine, its soft and feminine, and artists like Drake and BOB are proof of that, and Ross is a studio gangster, thats what DMX hates, the soft nature of everything in mainstream today

    211. okay, if someone asked any nigga on this site his thoughts about Drake. NOT EVEN DRAKE. any popular rapper in the game period.

      you think any of us would say “no comment”? or “oh he’s ight” why should DMX? because he’s famous and in the music industry? fuck outta here, you self-righetous goofs

    212. AND THEN THERE WAS BLOW

      AND THEN THERE WAS X (ECSTASY)

      AND THEN THERE WAS CRACK

      AND THEN THERE WAS METH

      And then there was jail house gang rape while DMX screams to Rozay for help!!! smh HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA

    213. But that’s the thing. I don’t think people hate Drake as much as they say they do. Not saying he’s totally accepted in Hip Hop (yet), but alot of what you read is for publicity and not versed in reality.

    214. Young Money dick riders deserve to be annihilated from the planet for being some dumb fuckers. Even X is cool with Lil Wayne but doesn’t dick ride his whole crew. Dumb soulless ass young money fans that have no value in themselves so they worship money to cover up how fucking worthless they are inside, pieces of shit. X the truth hate it or love it fake niggas!

    215. So what are you going to do about it DMX? You going to make a better record than Drake? LOL! Ok big dawg whatever. You just made that wack ass shit with MGK. Lying ass publicity stuntin’ nigga.

    216. Nobody is waiting for a DMX album. Espesically you morons in here. Yawl just creaming over a comment that supports your hate for Drake and Ross. Vanilla Ice could of said it and yawl would be on his nuts too.

    217. Drake ain’t on crack.
      Drake likes women.
      Drake makes successful music for his fans.
      Drake doesn’t claim to be a gangster.
      Drake conducts himself respectfully.
      Drake doesn’t spend half his life in and out of jail.
      Drake respects the pioneers like Common which he was man enough to work it out with.
      Drake NEVER, NEVER, NEVER said a bad word about DMX.
      Drake has done anything to any of you cats on here going ape shit over nothing but fucking music.

      Only 2 years ago it was Drakesanity, now that he’s made it, it’s the typical crabs in the bucket coming at him.

      1. i also luv me some drake but guess what else him being down with young money hum u know what they say u r what ur friends r how much shit does lil wayne take syrup pills n god knows what else so we all hear n most of those in their camp let’s b real n if dmx feels in some way i bet u this much he wont back down from lil wayne like my dude jigga is doing but they all r my favorite rappers ,artist n i useta watch drake when he was on the degrassi but what else is killing me is everyone is talking wreckless about thesecelebrities with$$$$$$ n how they use drugs they r this n they r that knowing u r probley doing the same shi% n just mad because ur too broke to live it to the fulliest because u dont have the money to r there any sober ones out there or have there been any sober one’s out there let me know how many any of u can come up with now how’s that 1 im just saying

      2. DMX likes women too, better than that he’s TAKING CARE OF HIS FAMILY.
        DMX makes successful music for his fans too.
        DMX NEVER NEVER EVER deliberately called Drake out, he was asked his thoughts on Drake. Bringing me to my next point.
        DMX is an honest guy who won’t sugarcoat shit for the media.
        DMX respects other lyricists out there like J.Cole.
        DMX hasn’t done anything to you Drake-lovers but get your fever up 105 degrees.
        DMX is a gangster.
        And his fanbase is fucking proud of it.

        now go wash your ass

      3. …and even if you want to play the sales game, DMX went platinum on two different albums in the same year. ‘Pac was the only other one to do that.

    218. DMX on the radio? NO
      DMX in the club? NO
      DMX in the highest played list on HHDX? NO
      DMX selling records? NO
      DMX fucking around with a rookie MC? Yep, MGK.

    219. man who give a fuck what this crackhead ass nigga think. He straight hatin on that nigga Drake. dats hater talk. this irrelevant jailbird ass nigga need to be in rehab. I aint no big drake fan but i know good music when i hear it, Drake got hits, Ross music fire, DMX old shit is nice but he is a has been, end of story ….

      1. how many times have u said nigga n i hope u r one yes not the n word a nigga and who gives a fu$# what u think x is a legend u punk A$$ negro n yes drake n rick ross r good to but regardless of what dmx is on or was on he is n always will b and icon oh by the way what kinda of drugs r u on get at me dog

      2. wow, this is rich, okay.

        hater talk? what the fuck was your post then?

        and DMX was ASKED his thoughts on Drake/Ross, which nullifies your hater accusation bullshit. guess who’s left as the hater here

    220. THANK YOU DMX, Common may have took the high road and stopped beefing with Drake, and yes Common is lyrically better than both Drake and DMX, but DMX can beat Drake in every way. Pre-Thank Me Later I would’ve said Drake can out-rap DMX cos he had nicer lyrics back then, now he just has a basic rhyme scheme and no heavy hitting punches while DMX has a basic rhyme scheme and heavy hitting punches. So not only can DMX beat Drake in a rap battle but he can literally whup his ass too haha. Common probably could but I doubt Common would ever use fists in a Hip Hop battle. DMX>Drake easily.

    221. Lol, all u cats vouchin for drake, i already kno what type of nigga u are, its kinda funny. Whats funnier is that is you same “type” niggas who always quick to call someone a hater jus bcuz they dont like what you like. smh… X is a real nigga, and he gave a real opinion thats all. If u cant comprehend that, i feel sorry for u…..

    222. Too keep it hot I don’t like Drake myself,but when I heard that DMX was goin in on Jay-Z too;ridiculous.You can’t blame Jay-Z for mistakes you made 10 years ago. The record label probably started treating X differently simply because they had found out he was getting into trouble with the law.

    223. blah blah blah if u sold 45 million records. why cant he sell half of 1 million now?? crackhead x is garbage now. nobody wants to hear that old damien shit about dogs n shit. this is 2012 not 2000 nigga. dont diss for publicity put out music!!!! thats why u dont hear shit from 50 cent anymore and jeezys almost extinct. kreayshawn is unheard of now. anytime somebody goes to beef or talks down on rozay never makes it

      BAWSE!!!

      1. It’s becuz it’s a different generation now.

        You kids don’t mind that Rick Ross is a studio gangster, it doesn’t bother you at all that he doesn’t do half the shit he rhymes about, you just care about the beat and the hook and how it sounds, which is fine but at the end of the day I can’t relate with frauds.

      2. DMX held it down in the 90’s, was innovative and an original artist with talent. I dont listen to him anymore, but give the man his respect. Hes just speaking his mind, we cant speak our fucking minds no more. This is why the world is fucked up. Too much fucking silence, just like lupe said “i think all the silence is worse then all the violence” He speaking real talk, on a hip hop standard, when evaluating a hip hop artist, drake and ross are straight wack, aint nothing speacial bout them fools. I have the most open mind ever, but these cats is garbage.

    224. Anytime one of these New School cornballs step outta line gettin at a Pioneer they need to be blackballed and checked, but you kids are so pre-pogrammed and brainwashed that you don’t understand.

      Nobody speaks their mind anymore, everbody scared of the politics (oh I said I hate Drake my album won’t sell) type of BS.

      As soon as you say someone is whack, you cornballs retaliate with album sales, Oh this cornball went platinum, or this cornball got fame etc,etc. Who Gives a FUCK? We all know who buying the albums making these POP artists sell, just cause you move units doesn’t mean your official, it just means you have a good machine behind you, promoting,advertising etc. Has nothing to do with Skills.

      1. Straight up. The only reason why the un talented, bad messaged demonic type artist sell is because the machine behind them are pushing these artist on us through promotion and just the new generations are flat out brainwashed, bias, manipulated and bad talent evaluaters.

      2. then how the fuck would they even get there alf you dumb, dumb fuck. The machine? Drake was the #1 unsigned underground artist on myspace when myspace was the spot for internet music. was he put there? im not even a drake fan either… but dude gets the most unjustified, biased hate ive ever seen bc hes different. if you blame anyone, blame the PEOPLE for listening. Drake is the most demanded rapper in the game right now take it or leave it. Most #1 rap singles EVER! ALREADY! in RAP HISTORY. not talent? fuck outta here. His style is UNIQUE.. and rather than call women bitches hoes and how they should get it like the other 5000 people who call themselves rappers, he exploited actual emotion that MEN feel. genius. If you dont like, blame the PEOPLE

      3. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

        Drake talented? LMAO!! You’re kidding right?

        “and rather than call women bitches hoes and how they should get it like the other 5000 people who call themselves rappers, he exploited actual emotion that MEN feel. genius.”

        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Nigga, please!! He does the same shit that those other 5000 people called rappers. And actual emotion that men feel? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! If you’re talking about GAY men, then I believe you!! Genius? Fuck no!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! You should be a stand-up comedian.

    225. Why are dudes acting like Wayne didn’t get raped in jail? Also Drake makes RuPaul look like the most heterosexual man in the world.

    226. “He’s aight, man. He talks about eating and girlfriends too much. How much can a nigga eat? How much weed can you smoke?

      BEST RESPONSE EVER FOR OPINION OF RICK ROSS….EPIC

    227. Damn what X said about Jay-Z was the same thing that happened to Joe Budden. Jigga has trying to get rid of competition…

    228. AND THEN THERE WAS X (ECSTASY)

      AND THEN THERE WAS BLOW, CRACK, METH,

      Keeps going back to them is jail and DON’T LIE, that means he has a boyfriend in there and YOU KNOW IT!!!!

      And then there was a jail house gang rape while DMX screams to Rozay for help!!! smh HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA

      X IS MAD AT ROZAY BECAUSE THE GUARDS DIDN’T HELP WHEN THEY TOOK HIS BUTT!!! Keeps going back to jail and DON’T LIE, that means he has a boyfriend in there and YOU KNOW IT!!!!

    229. OK, I’m here to address DMX here. I heard this nigga became a “Christian” and tried to go against the Illuminati? If so, then why would he still be cursing like a sailor and tried to act like a tough guy? Nobody wears Timber Boats or Baggy Jeans anymore dipshit. Same goes with Skinny Jeans or animal print sweaters that Flake wears. Wouldn’t he be dead? Oh wait, he still alive. Face it, guys like DMX, Eminem and Lupe Fiasco portray themselves as heroes but they all are puppets like Drake, Wiz Khagina and that faggot nigga B.o.B. The real rappers are Gucci Mane, Justin Bieber, Hopsin, Vinnie Paz and Lowkey to name a few. Peace out niggaz.

      It’s Gucci Time!

      1. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

        I just ROTFL!! You should be a stand-up comedian!! Aside from Hopsin, the “real rappers” you mentioned are jokes!! Justin Bieber?!?! LMMFAO!! LOL!! He’s a fucking kid singer who can’t even sing and dance!!

    230. look at all these sorry ass young money dickriders crying and getting mad LOL. wow what a sorry ass fanbase drake has. yall no different than justin bieber fans lmfao. X was simply asked a question and said his honest opinion. damn you kids are embarrassing. this is nothing but just an era of kids jumpin on bandwagons.

    231. DMX: So who do you think is nice? Lyrically.
      Radio host: Right now?
      DMX: Yea, lyrically.
      Radio host: Um…my favorite new guy right now is…I like Jeezy. I like French Montana. I like 2 Chainz. I like Meek Mill

      First off, Jeezy is NOT a new cat. He’s 4 albums in…and then he names FRENCH MONTANA as being one of his favorite LYRICISTS. Not too mention that was beside 2 Chainz and Meek Mill. NONE of those guys are lyricists. That is just pitiful. Now wonder the radio is such a joke in hip-hop.

      1. swageezy is right,,that host doesn’t know anything about lyricism if those were his favorite lyricists. 2CHAINZ?? French Montana????

    232. “DMX also shared that he does not know how to use a computer…”

      Shouldn’t nobody listen to this dude after this comment.

      1. In this case thats actually a good thing. It means hes not a twitter gangster or e-thug like some of your favourite fake rappers.

    233. top 10 dead or alive. jayz,nas,eminem,biggie,tupac,ross,jadakiss,
      max b,lil wayne,kanye west. dmx is nowhere near any of these artists. dmx did put out good music back in the day but his times up.

      1. nigga check the soundscans. wayne is one of the highest selling rappers especially of our decade. and personally i dont even like lil wayne n i dont listen to pac much but im not gonna deny there talent or work ethic. hip hop isnt only about lyrics its how u choose ur beats ur flow adlibs features. its more than just lyrics. and my top 10 all of those rappers have those qualities.

      2. Real Talk:

        You should call yourself Fake Talk:

        Ross & wayne hasn’t made a classic album

        Doesn’t have classic lyrics that people resite

        If your gonna keep it real then keep it real for real! lol

    234. I appreciate X for his honesty. I personally cut for Drake. The young guy has talent. Can’t take that away. I remember when I was like the only person in Houston that listened to DMX. A lot of cats down here said the exact same things. It’s just how a person feels. Not the absolute truth.

    235. Come X try and retain some self dignity, you was one of the most Respected MC’s of your time and held as a threat to many rappers, You achieved levels of fame Rappers in you era couldn’t fathom, and now that you mismanaged your life to point were it is you wanna blame others lol If 2 men are given the same tools to build a House and 1 builds a better home for himself than the other, how can you harbor resentment for him?

      1. Excuse My Grammar Revised to make sense lol

        Come on X! try and retain some self dignity, you was one of the most Respected MC’s of your time and held as a threat to many rappers, You achieved levels of fame Rappers in you era couldn’t fathom, and now that you mismanaged your life to the point were it is, you wanna blame others lol
        If 2 men are given the same tools to build a House and 1 builds a better home for himself than the other, how can you harbor resentment for that man?

      2. R you fucking stupid when did he blame drake or rick fatfuck ross for anything he still the realest and best mc out there he gave his opionion on those two who cares if he took drugs his music his raw and you cant fuck with him on that level you gonna hate on him cuz he does drugs nigga look at the whole world every muthafucker does drugs

      3. Am I stupid ? Lol guess you didn’t read the the part of the interview were he states he was treated unfairly by Jigga Man . Gues just like DMX you only read and see what you want to se lol. Listen lil nigga try and learn to not be so emotionally involved when u post , And I quote the great Nastradamus “Y’all niggas deal with emotions like bitches”

    236. Lol ymcmb and mmg fans upset with x. The man said his opinion get over it. There’s a lot more rappers who feel the same way. They just don’t have the balls to say it. Yall expect everyone to kiss drakes and Ross’s ass and be tight lipped about him. I remeber when mysonne said something about niggas who fuck with lil b lilwayne being suspect # 1. Mys said he can’t fuck with niggas who are wack or associated with wack niggas young money again # 1 suspects. X was on drugs so yall can use that against him but what can u say about mysonne with the exception of sales really?

    237. Oh yea and @iamhiphopt vinny paz mixtape was pretty dope better than hnic 3. So that nigga cool Wtf u talking bout

    238. just to show you dmx is hatin. he said ross has no lyrics basically all he does is talk about food n weed? ross feat jayz free mason. ross killed jayz, usual suspect feat nas. ross killed nas. lord knows drake feat ross. ross killed drake. tears of joy not about weed or food. mafia music 2 aint about weed or food. whoever says ross dont have lyrics is hating. dmx jus put out music n stop doing interviews for hype. u havent dropped an album in years n ur not even in position to be talking about nobody. ur only burrying urself

      1. Rick Ross kill someone in.a song?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Nigga, the only thing Ross kills is a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

      2. It’s not hate. It’s opinions. Besides, Rick Ross and lyrical should never be in the same sentence. Copy and paste Ross’ best lyrics if you think he’s lyrical. And it better not be some bullshit about drugs, money, materialistic possessions, and bitches.

    239. Im sorry but if you put Jay-Z & Nas in a list with Ross, Wayne, and Drake then I know your young and stupid. I know your not really into hiphop. I know your not apart of the hiphop culture. I know this because there is a fundamental difference between those guys and the Kings og hiphop.

      If I need to explain that to you then its sad you don’t get it.

      Better yet, do me a favor. Cut & paste Ross, Wayne, or Drakes best lyrices and I’ll cut & paste Jay-Z’S or Nas and we’ll see the difference, I promise you!!!

      1. I understand where you’re coming from, but you can’t tell someone else what hip hop is. It is a culture. It is the music. Because you’re old enough to appreciate jay and nas doesn’t mean that if someone prefers wayne or ross they don’t know hip hop. Maybe cats can’t relate to the shit they’re saying. Like I’m not a jay z fan. I can’t relate to his music. I’ll listen to Kid Cudi before I listen to new jay z music. Nigga I’m 30 and I’ve been in hip hop my whole life. I’ve made rap songs. I’ve done shows. Who I put at the top of my list is my opinion. Scarface #1 and #2 lol.

      2. Mr Exlax:

        I like your argument but I find it harmful when these kids listen to websites like this and radio & tv djs when they are clearly trying to sway the youth into believing something that isn’t true. Yes, someone can like someone and claim they find that artist to be “there” top artist but when you try to throw facts that are simply not true into the argument it bothers me to no end and its harmful to the hiphop culture.

        I agree everyone should be allowed to make music. Music is self expression and whatever you choose to do, you should be allowed to make, listen, or like who you like.

        That being said, I have a like Kid Cudi’s albums and Scarface is on another level! I didn’t appreciate his music until I was older. Nice talk!!!

    240. AND THEN THERE WAS X (ECSTASY)

      AND THEN THERE WAS BLOW, CRACK, METH,

      And then there was a jail house gang rape while DMX screams to Rozay for help!!! smh HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA

      X IS MAD AT ROZAY BECAUSE THE GUARDS DIDN’T HELP WHEN THEY TOOK HIS BUTT!!!

      Keeps going back to jail and DON’T LIE, that means he has a boyfriend in there and YOU KNOW IT!!!!

    241. man a dmx and nas collab has been long overdue, every time theyu get on the track its fire! but glad to see the dog is back and putting wack rappers in check.

    242. DMX can be entitled to his opinions. But he really needs to get his personal recklessness in check, stop getting arrested. He’s too old to be constantly going into jail for silliness. Stop with the born-again-christian-but-i’ll still shoot-you-rob-you-kill you for looking at me the wrong way posing. Stop it!
      Just come out with a new album with tight production, hard lyrics and hooks. Leave the drama alone.. Only at this point, what record label besides some ultra-indie is going to sign him? Maybe Fontana. Maybe Koch/E1. Probably not Interscope/Universal/Def Jam, Warners, Jive/RCA, he already quit on Epic/Sony, EMI/Capitol just got bought out by Universal.. not much left..

    243. 01. 2pac
      02. Nas
      03. Biggie
      04. Eminem
      05. Jay-Z
      06. DMX
      07. Big Pun
      08. Big L
      09. Andre 3000
      10. Jadakiss

      Recognize a legend when you see one, you new-rapper-listening-to faggots.

      1. Crack heads aren’t legends!!!!

        He goes to jail more than he goes to church.

        Jay-Z didn’t end his career.

        Swizz Beats said it best the last time X went to jail. “You can’t help people who don’t want to help themselves. smh

        HIS OWN HOMEBOYS EVEN PUT HIM ON BLAST BUT HIS STANS ARE IN DENIAL.

      2. Crack heads arent legends? Drugs and talent do not go good together, but a talented person who does drugs doesn’t make them talentless. It just makes them a talented person who does drugs.

        So drug abusers like Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson aren’t legends because they did hardcore drugs?

        And then you bring up jail? So as soon as someone walks into prison, their talent just disappears? You have the logic of a pre-teen kid. I’m talking bout X’s music fam, fuck the drugs and jail, if you haven’t heard ‘Its Dark and Hell Is Hot’ from start to finish then shut the fuck up.

      3. DMZ aint no Whitney Houston or Michael Jackson. Those are legends!!!

        X is just an in and out of jail crackhead!!!

    244. Do you honestly believe a man who is this far into drugs, and in and out of jail is going to suddenly have what it takes to maintain a career and stay focused? Tell him to see his 10 kids, better yet, support them. That’s the only comeback X should be planning.

      First four albums were fire (first two classic to me). But it’s been ten years since The Great Depression, and everything since then has been trash. X ain’t coming back.

    245. Swizz Beatz Dicusses DMX’s Struggles, Jay-Z Beef

      “At the end of the day, you can’t help somebody if they’re not willing to help themselves,” he added.

      Swizz also addressed DMX’s recent outburst, where he said “Fuck Jay-Z” during a concert in Arizona. “There’s no problem with DMX, with Jay. X is gonna address that in a certain way. It’s 2010. All that fake beef, and all [those] ignorant tones against each other…I don’t get involved in that.”

    246. LMAO at your DMX dickriders/Drake Haters, saying Drake is “fag” and his music is gay and bla bla bla. But jus watch when DMX drops his new album and only sells 7 000 copies ya`ll gonna be like “Real Hip Hop is dead,kids only wanna hear that pop garbage bla bla bla”. Where are all those Common fans now since the beef is over. Everyone claims they listen to that real hip hop and then album sales come out, Oh but wait you “Real Hip Hop” fans think they lower the sales the realer the music. you fools aint no such thing as real hip hop. When HiphopDX post a headline that Reads “DMX NEW ALBUM TOPS CHARTS 250 000 SOLD IN 1ST WEEK” then i`ll believe theres such a thing as real hip hop

      In fact you “Real Hip Hop” fans are the fakest fans in Hip Hop LOL

      1. I agree with you 100%. The problem with people on this site (or all over the world) is they claim they support real Hip Hop, yet they don’t even spend money on albums, merchandise or even go to the shows. They’ll spend $200-$500 on Dre Beats but won’t even spend $10 on a CD.

        So in your defense, they’re are people that say they’re “real” Hip Hop heads, but don’t have anything to prove it. But there are real Hip Hop heads out there that aren’t talking out of their ass and actually spend money on the good Hip Hop that they want.

        And I spend money on albums & support my favorite artists, just to make it clear. I’m gonna cop Undisputed the first week it comes out, regardless what anyone says.

    247. @No Such Thing As Real Hip Hop YEAH!! and they should stop using that “Good music is hard to find” excuse. Theres Lupe,Kendrick,Saigon,Talib Kweli etc jus gotta look in the right places

    248. Yo best interview I’ve seen in ages. Now while DMX is a trouble brother and has his demons he’s also honest something that I really miss about artist. All the fans always scream about people being real but then when a cat is they frown on him?? Reality is not always a pretty thing people. Let’s send best wishes to the brother, hope he doesn’t follow in the footsteps of ODB and pray he continues to be this honesty on or off drugs.

    249. Dmx don’t like drake and your defense is a crack head ok now mysonne don’t like drake either and don’t do drugs so what about him? A lot of rappers feel the same way and don’t have the same problems so what can u say about them? Not a damn thing. And the dude asking about the comnons fans he still got em. The goal of his diss songs weren’t aimed at sales and u kids acceptance. They were made to wake up some of these kids let them see what being dope is about. Make em realize a lot of this new shit ain’t hip hop. He did his part. Now the game needs more niggas to speak their minds and stop worrying about the backlash. Than maybe these blind fans will see the fucking light one day.

    250. Come on, I mean this is hilarious, I like DMX and I do not like drake so its even funnier “I dont like his face”

    251. Drake sounds like he has a clothes pin on his nose at all times. THATS THE TRUTH! Everytime one of his “song” come on, it’s ok until the second he opens up his mouth and starts “rhyme singing”. What an unbearable voice!……it’s pathetic and his “fans” wouldn’t buy his records if he let himself go…lol. He won’t be making records 3 years from now any damn way.

      And fuck nicki minaj…uhh!. Bang, my click bang????? BITCH your nickelodean click can’t bang pots let alone a gun. Degrassi click bitch…lol

    252. DMX is one of the realist rappers. Here me out, even thou a lot of DMX’s problems were self-inflicked…..he’s been through a lot and his music can relate to way more ppl then most of the music coming out theses same-song-and-dance rappers today. ” Ross’ subject matter is not diverse’

    253. FOR EVERYONE ON HERE HATING ON X THIS IS FOR YOU

      Are you retarded or just ignorant of a talented rapper? To say DMX aint lyrical is like sayin the KKK aint racist. You obviously are one of the dudes who listened to Party Up and just assumed thats all X was about. X has story telling ability (Damien 1, 2, and 3), the nigga is an expert poet(all his prayers), crazily creative (Spellbound) he can get grimey as fuck (Tales From the Darkside, Here Comes the Boom, Shut Em Down), and he can be on some positive type stuff (Slippin, Prayers, just his thoughts in general). Before you go makin a ridiculous accusation as to say X aint more lyrical than Ross please go do your homework on the MC. X’s resume is hella impressive in this rap shit. No1 could touch him in dissing (His Tupac/West Coast/ K-Solo diss), poetry, intensity, street credit, all dat. GTFOH you silly excuse for a hip-hop fan. Learn and think before you speak.

      MATTER OF FACT, GO LISTEN TO MURDERGRAM THEN COME BACK AND TELL ME ROSS IS BETTER, SHYT AFTER HEARIN THAT, TRY N TELL ME DRAKE IS BETTER (i have no beef wit drake and enjoy his music, but his hard talk isnt plausible and he jus not better than X imo

    254. Seven Arts Music CEO David Michery stated: “Even prior to its official release, DMX’s single ‘I Don’t Dance’ with Bad Boy’s Machine Gun Kelly has already jumped to Number 4 in the Top 200 of the Rap Music Charts of DJBooth.net. Two of the top DJs in the country, DJ Envy (105.1 in New York City) and DJ Flex (97.1 in New York City) said it all: The single is a ‘smash’ and ‘Love the single.'”
