DMX recently spoke with MTV2’s Sucker Free about his time shooting the 1998 flick Belly with director Hype Williams. In a recently released clip from the interview (via RapFix), Dark Man X recalls how working with Williams on the video for “Get At Me Dog” inspired him to want to be part of Belly in its early phases.
“Hype Williams did my first video ‘Get At Me Dog,’ and at the end of the video, I’m eating and everything and he asked me if I wanted to be part of a movie.” His response to Williams was plain and simple: “Hell yeah.”
X also reminisced on shooting the film, and explained that his memory is a bit hazy surrounding being on set.
“I really don’t remember how I felt at the time,” he said. “You gotta remember also, during that whole movie, I’d eat an egg and cheese sandwich with turkey bacon in the morning, then I’d drink a bottle of Hennessy per day. That was the contents of my stomach everyday.”

And it showed X. Your performance was one of the worst ever put on film.
You sound stupid as fuck the nigga played the part he was assigned and did well considering he was playing a street nigga. Now go get fucked by a donkey you lil bitch!!!
Belly was a great movie. The sequel sucked, though.
don’t get it twisted my man that was not the real follow up just lions gate bein shiesty beast was always ment to be the sequel
hahahahahaha my man was white boy wasted the whole time.
Honestly my man looks so sad. I was a senior in highschool when X debuted. Belly came out the following year. To see how this dude looks and sounds right now in the present its just a shame man. Take a DMX & then a Jay-Z both whom were once peers from the same era and look @ them now. It’s sad man. Reminds me of one of his old rhymes “wake up 40 years old on some bum shit…” no judgement, i hope the man finds his own peace with life, but its such a sharp contrast to what he once was…
Word.
Real shit right there…..
Dam thats to real
This Nigga looks dirty, he has yellow teeth and bad skin, but this realness will fuck up all these faggot ass niggas like drake and lil wayne.

If you think the anti-Brother bigotry that permeates on this site is astonishing, check out Hi-def Digests’ hate-filled, pernicious review of the Belly Blu-ray. The ignorant bile these guys spew can only happen in the atmosphere of the Internet and proves one of the downsides of the net is that whites now have the means to express their fascist views in the safety of their own home. Anonymous web users who talk shit about Brothers on line but not to our faces are dick-less scum.
Belly is a straight classic nuff said
X IS THA LAST OF THA REAL MC’s LEFT!!!
