Serious Question: Where does DMX rate among ALL TIME GREATS?

[Originalgangsta317]

........ one of the greatest rap songs of all time... dare anyone to disagree

you already know I see

 

[Originalgangsta317]

He in my top 5 depending on the day of the week. #5 fluctuates between him and busta rhymes

My nikka

 

[Originalgangsta317]

Pretty damn high

There are very few rappers that are fukking with a Prime DMX

nikkas ain't forgot how lethal prime DMX was

 

[Originalgangsta317]

His last album Undisputed had at least 5 or 6 songs I still fukk with...

He had his moments on every last one of his albums. And hes one of my top 3 favorite rappers.

But to answer the op he couldve been alot higher. Id probably put him top 25. He def had top 10 potential, maybe even top 5

Prime DMX is up there. He blew up way too late.

Yea he was damn near 30 when he finally reached success

 

[Barney Rubble]

X had that Pac aura in the late 90s. Everything he did was captivating, rapping, acting, live shows, everything. Damn shame what the drugs did to him and his legacy

 

[Big Boss]

Ruff Ryders!!!!

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

He has a permanent spot in my top 10, some days top 5, but I can't call it for an objective list

 

[Dirty D]

Top 10

If BIG can be in people's top 5 with 2 albums, X can definitely be top 10 with more material and more hits,

 

[Dirty D]

Double post

 

[Originalgangsta317]

Top 10

If BIG can be in people's top 5 with 2 albums, X can definitely be top 10 with more material and more hits,

EXACTLY!!!!

[scarlxrd]

Im white but im cool breh. My man...im coked up right now so hopefully i dont write a fukkin essay here

I love dmx no homo. He was an eastcoast pac basically. It hurts me to agree with baron/ronnie/neworleans but his albums did progressively decline after flesh of my flesh

Even with that being said he never had a wack album. The great depression and grand champ were solid. Year of the dog and undisputed are probably tied for his worst but they have bangers

This is basically Slippin part 2


And we got slippin part 3 from undisputed


Another ill song from Undisputed


I think this came out around the time of year of the dog again, it was on the bonus dvd





So its safe tobsay im a stan and my opinion might be a little biased. I dont know maybe im the only only one that thinks his post and then there was X was still good, just not on the level of his earlier albums.

Its a damn shame the crack got him. He was a real good actor too, it was like pac came back and took over his body. well Pac was the better actor, I cant be that biased. And pacs one of my favs too. I got Nas ahead of X and while pac is top 3 to me nas is number one (rakim second).

I bing Nas up bcuz while I do think nas is the goat, he cant match the passion that you can hear and feel in X's and pacs music. Those two poured there hearts out and had very convincing deliveries
