early X feat. Doc Holiday aka Doc Hollywood
Rest in palaces.
bonus ... X & Ja over Triumph
yo what year was it recorded?
damn! when did those sessions happen?
don't know the year but here's a compilation w/ early X tracks, the description to the vid (below vid, not the in vid info) is very detailed - but contains no years
is that Doc Holiday from the Black Rose Kartel aka rose family ?
R.I.P X one love����
Listening to DMX's old track shows how enormous progress he did for 2-3 years. In '97 he must've recorded that track over Triumph and in 99 he already dropped multiplatinum classic
Aside from his troubles with the law and his own personal struggles. I think his career really went downhill due to the fact that he never adapted to the times, which is the same thing that killed off Fifty Cent's career, they were one trick ponies and fans eventually got exhausted of the same old schtick
For me X was always more of a singles MC, rather than albums. I never really got in to a full X album from start to finish, but you could bet your ass there would be at least one or two absolutely bangin' singles on each album!
I've got a playlist that I bump regularly with just the best pick of X singles and a few album tracks from his career. Dope shit.
RIP X
Peace!
Worrrrrd up! X ain't never had classic from start to finish but the bangers on his albums were absolutely amazing. Always loved his Prayers tracks, too.Quote:

I don't think anything after 'Grand Champ' stands out much.
He dipped into some South music with features on Yung Wun and Lil Scrappy tracks in the mid 2000s but that's about it. I'm glad he didn't start using trap beats.Quote:

For WuChamber posters who want to follow up on X : we will be posting all the verses and songs that get released posthumously in the DMX tribute thread in Hip-Hop Shop
