      In one of his interviews he said he contemplated killing his mother cuz i hated that b" so its possible she detected his thoughts and thats why she sent him to several group homes. Beating him with a broom until 2 teeth came out was brutal punishment from a Jehovah Witness so there's probably a history of family abuse and mental illness.

      It does something to me because I raised two sons and I know I would give my life for them. And I listen to him, and I feel hurt for DMX, his pain. On top of that, his own mentor lace his weed with crack.. God needed DMX home with him. So many evil people around him Such a sweet soul, that has been abused, hurt so young....
      Has the same demons around him.... He is trying really hard to get right... But can't because those same demoy that hurt him, tried to destroy him are around...We pray for our love one's to stay on earth with us. But we never say God your will not ours... He touched many... DMX was tired... He needed strong people to help him kick that drug habit... And if he didn't heal from the past... Who knows. I. Just saying....... I love some DMX... But you can see the pain that was on his face, his music, and his upbringing... My God he was a soldier who had to fight straight from the womb..... RIP

    When DMX cried, it reminded me of that song on his first album that started with a dog in the background whimpering. His mom put the blame on him and made him not have any self-esteem or any belief in himself. God obviously had a plan for DMX. This man literally said "There's always a gift in every bad situation. You just have to be strong enough to be willing to look for it." Dude is a true warrior. Respect coming from a person like me, who sadly grew up in this age of mumble rap, where the least creative ones are called artists.

    It started with the lack of love from his mother, and dude that was his Mentor that slipped him the "grimmy" which is what we call laced weed with crack. I had a cousin in Texas do me the same way. I never spoke to my cousin after that, to this day I never utter a word to dude for fear I will severely hurt him. That laced weed turned me into a person that is very observant and I have trust issues.

    DMX mother was like so many moms that I know. She gave birth to a KING and didn't even know it. She was bitter at his father, herself, and the world and took it out on him. Her age was not an excuse because MY grandma had kids at 15 as well in the hills of Alabama during Jim Crow and birthed 10 boys. She loved each and every one of them and she picked cotton, didn't have running water, no electricity, no car, just a dirt road and cotton fields for mile and miles BUT she loved and nurtured her kids. I wish DMX could have stayed with his grandma or was given a mother like my grandma. He deserved so much more. May he Rest in Power.

      Right What a sweet thing to say. He was in severe pain. Money and fame can't buy happiness or a family.

      God’s purpose for him was far greater which is why we went through all that he did. Everything in life happens for a reason. There is always good in the bad you just have to find it.
