Twitter Went Crazy After DMX Asked For “Trap Beats”

    In the grand scheme of things, there are very few rappers who could make Hip Hop music with the same energy and aggression as DMX.

    X’s style is close to being unique in the mainstream, so when Twitter got wind that the New York icon was “Looking for trap beats,” they were not ready to accept this change in direction.

    DMX had taken to Twitter to post the request, and judging by the level of backlash he received, you might think he had asked somebody to give him their pet dog to throw off a building.

    But it seems as though there could be a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. DMX’s tweet specifically says “Trap beats for my dog @1shotdealz.”

    A quick scan of 1 Shot Dealz’s Twitter reveals that he considers himself to be “ya favorite rapper’s trap nigga,” and further Googling brings up some of his music on SoundCloud. His Twitter bio also identifies him as part of the Ryderz crew.

    Taking all this into account, it seems pretty plausible that DMX was, in fact, using his own huge Twitter following to help find “trap” beats for his friend, who only has about 1,000 Twitter followers.

    We like to think that this “look before you leap situation” will stop Twitter users from reacting so harshly in future, but somehow we doubt it.

    1. I dont give a fuck ..that new krayzie and bizzy bone album is coming soon..the new single out already..no one flipping like bizzy ..its fire for realz…grown ghetto gospel music..fuck all that wanna be but cant be (coming home ft stephen marley

    2. Ok, so DMX wants trap beats. So what!! Geez, get a grip! It’s not the end of the hip hop world, there’s been way worse lows in hip hop than this concept! There a lot of old rappers from his time and even further back that are still trying to remain relevant. Most still have their core fans that will support them no matter what. In DMX’s case, this could be a big break through or a total flop, who knows. Let’s give Dark Man X a chance.

    3. So D asking for beats for the homie and ppl wanna jump down his throat saying he asking for himself. Smh. The english language is now becoming a hobby.

    4. People are sensitive about a man, they don´t Support. Let DMX do what the fuck he wants to do.

      1. You would know huh? Bet you just watched your ma die from taking her last dick to the mouth for crack just last year just read her obituary man sad

      1. I don’t think he’s asking for full on trap beats probably just beats with 808s on em or hard basss drops like some oxymoron type shyt for example

    5. So Twitter users trash DMX because they’re too dumb to read the full tweet. Why is this an article? And why does hhdx act like he may have been asking for the beats to use himself? “It seems pretty plausable”… FOH

    6. LMAO, people going off on X without reading the full tweet. Nothin wrong with trap beats either, as long as someone is spittin’ fire over them.

    7. another article from HHDX with half assed journalism..why don’t you show his ENTIRE tweet then make a statement. smh this site is really biased and just horrible

    8. Ok after Eric B and Rakim DMX was the next best thing reaching an all-time high no matter what the beat sound like remember X gona give it to you. I would love again mix to come back show the original true rap
