Right, 2001, I would be in 10th grade, fukk that was a lifetime ago, but I remember so much vividly. This was the last moments for X. He was almost an afterthought by this point, I need to run some of this back. A few of these tracks got a lot of play in the months and year afterward, adolescent nostalgia, of blunts and buying 8ths, riding around in that haze of 16 years old, and what do we do with ourselves?

Besides the singles, I played "I Miss You" and "A Minute For Your Son" a lot. His next album, the one with "Get It On the Floor" was really the end of DMX, as I knew him.
