FUCK, I idolized DMX growing up and still do. RIP to a fucking LEGEND. The biggest name in the business for years, and a dude with a true heart of gold. He had his demons that he constantly battled, but always remained close to God. Now, he finally gets to meet the God he loves so dearly

@@SeeSetJaeMiirTv he sold it but he kept striving towards the end. As long as he didn't blaspheme the holy ghost he can always be purchased back.

He did sell his soul unfortunately, he told you that from his own mouth in his track “ Let my fly “ and at the beginning of the movie Belly. X has been fighting his demons all his life, and he has had a tough tough life. R.I.P. DARKMAN X ✊🏾

DMX is absolutely NOT the Rap King! I, Jah Jesus Christ Snoop Doggy Dogg, am King of Freestyle Rap, King of Written Rap, King of Freestyle Battle Rap, and am Rap King. I also am the G.O.A.T. of Rap. My name is Nishith Vijay, and I am Jah Jesus Christ Snoop Doggy Dogg Burning Ganja Tree Lord Shiva King Death Row Kambodia.
Lashane Tupac BIG DMX Ludacris 50 Cent Slim Thug Ice Cube & others have that Boss Like Voice. Like you can vibe with anything that come out they mouth right away
“Cops is closing in. I can do time but what's really on my mind is ain't no hoes in the pen” is one of the most precise lines ever. What made Jay-Z an icon is that no matter how good the other artist went, he never failed to complete one dope line that sinks and lasts throughout the cipher. Fabulous is also good at spitting memorable freestyles.
Rest In Peace to the absolute bonafide legend. X was a rare, unique character in a world full of familiarity. It would be a shame if the newer generations didn’t take the time to educate themselves on the first X, the true X. Where my dawgs at?!
Back when dudes could actually rap and took that shit serious. Dudes came up battling and this was normal. Ask a dude to freestyle now and they pull out a iPhone. Dmx did that straight off his head.
Jay- z is garbage 110%... And all you birds on here being in these mens D*#k like they done something for you. Why people talk about celebs like they know them. They wouldn't give two craps about any of yous. People in this world is A JOKE!!... people care to much about celebs and what they're doing in there lives like they would care.
@@KC-smoken420 im not jay zs biggest fan. but im a fan of rap. hes definitely not garbage bro..listen to d'evils..22 2s and lyrical exercise. jayz got bars you cant doubt that. fuck the celeb status i couldn't care less. im just saying from a rap point of view he aint garbage

Cypher, not battle. Boss types may like Jay Z's words, flow, etc. Aggressive types may reflect more thru DMX's words, flow, etc. Conscious types may appreciate Hasim words, flow, etc.
@@ingonitojones4252 The battle you're referring to happened years before this and was not recorded. This was a cypher during the Def Jam tour. DMX felt like people may have thought JayZ won their battle but most said it was a tie.
X did explain why is that, he said: " That niggas verse was weak, as you can see from the video no one was coming up to him saying good job nigga or anything cause no one was impressed, so I had to do it for the sake of old times and to not make him feel bad about himself "
Eddie Skinner why are ppl always viewed as dick ridin cause they like someone's work...im just curious nothing personal against you or your statement i see it regarding the female artist as well whether rap, r&b or pop. The person who likes someone's work and or compliments it is seen as an ass kisser, dick rider, jocker, or whatevr other terminology applies by the person who dislikes the artist. whats up with that? we are all individials and like snow flakes no two individuals are alike. with that being said it stands to reason why some ppl love x but hate hov or vice versa, or love rhianna but hate beyonce or vice versa, or love lil kim but hate nikki etc. no one is right or wrong its personal preference no matter who made more money or sold more records or got more grammys sold out more tours at the end of the day its about personal preference because we as individuals like what we like. so i appreciate other ppls perspective of why they feel their personal choice is better than mine...im never pressed, bothered or phased in the least bit about....blowing my wet nails.
"Moves is made, niggas is paid, that's just how it is When my time is up I'mma be out but I'mma try to live I'm eatin day by day, ain't nothin sweet about it Act like you don't know what I'm sayin.

Jayz wasn't ok bro LoL. It's was the most garbage bars I every herd. I freestyle and I'm definitely not coky, but my freestyle is alot better then Jays. I'm tellin you homie
There's nothing like genuine respect from a collection of legends. As impressive as the Muslim Brother was, I thought Dark Man X took this. That last salvo was nuclear.
ahhaha jay z s freestyle is him readnig words that rhyme off of pieces of paper. is that freestyle? come now. if anything jay s verse was written. he already spat that on a song before this battle. jay z fan much? lol

I remember when I bought my Hummer H2 the first they came out. DMX drove one in a movie with Steven Segal. I was so nervous because it was rush hour and the dealer I purchased it from was over an hour away. After getting through local traffic and got on the interstate, I played Ain’t No Sunshine by DMX !! Yes I’m a cop, but also born and raised in Yonkers NY. Rest easy ...
Maybe not but no solo artist on this planet has more consecutive number 1 albums on the Bill Board 200. If DMX could have made 14 number 1 albums 14 times straight he would have, but he didn't. That's not easy for a rapper to do. The Beatles had 19 and they are a group. Elvis only had 10. Eminem gets a lot of credit, but if he was black, his album accomplishments would look a whole lot less. Not to mention how many consecutive year after year albums did any of these guys do? Drake maybe the only one close. Jay did it long before Twitter.
Man I miss these moments in Hip Hop! So much respect, camaraderie and unity. You could tell Jay and X had mad respect for each other as killer MCs. I remember watching this movie at 15 and bugging out at the level of rap skills these dudes had. X will be missed for sure. One of the greatest to ever bless a mic.
When X said " When my time is up .. Ima be out but ima try to live" that shit hit different because that's exactly what he did before he passed ... Legends Neva DIE!!! DoubleR I P DARKMAN X 🤞🏾
Man, the way DMX’s voice gains momentum and becomes so gritty and strong....gives me the chills. The Golden voice of rap. RIP
Word up !!

" That niggas verse was weak, as you can see from the video no one was coming up to him saying good job nigga or anything cause no one was impressed, so I had to do it for the sake of old times and to not make him feel bad about himself "
Eddie Skinner why are ppl always viewed as dick ridin cause they like someone's work...im just curious nothing personal against you or your statement i see it regarding the female artist as well whether rap, r&b or pop. The person who likes someone's work and or compliments it is seen as an ass kisser, dick rider, jocker, or whatevr other terminology applies by the person who dislikes the artist. whats up with that? we are all individials and like snow flakes no two individuals are alike. with that being said it stands to reason why some ppl love x but hate hov or vice versa, or love rhianna but hate beyonce or vice versa, or love lil kim but hate nikki etc. no one is right or wrong its personal preference no matter who made more money or sold more records or got more grammys sold out more tours at the end of the day its about personal preference because we as individuals like what we like. so i appreciate other ppls perspective of why they feel their personal choice is better than mine...im never pressed, bothered or phased in the least bit about....blowing my wet nails.
Solocid where did you see that at? id like to see that one.
ikonic femme Don't know man it was in an interview I saw long time ago.. :s
Wow, the only one who said Jayz verse was nice was X cause he knew J couldnt fuck with him. Very humble man
2:54 I love homie's reaction to X's windpipe line!!!!!!!! Rest In Peace, king
"Moves is made, niggas is paid, that's just how it is
When my time is up I'mma be out but I'mma try to live
I'm eatin day by day, ain't nothin sweet about it
Act like you don't know what I'm sayin. Read about it.
Built for war like a armadillo
Smoother yo' ass with two through the pilllow
Cause my shit is Brillo
Manic depressive and my head hurts
Yo, gimme yo' dough and yo' ho, and here take these fo'
Hot things I got things that make niggas spin
Put niggas in the wind, where you never see niggas again
I bless a nigga with stitches, the thin type
And a straight razor will put pinstripes across your windpipe."
-DMX
Dopee asf
It's cool to see how he reused this verse later. I always thought it went hard AF. th-cam.com/video/VHbwUODIGV8/w-d-xo.html
fact that rappers can do this on their toes is special to me
I was never into X like, respected him though, but this here was fire, best verse hands down,
The dog
1:23 That lil kid got more bars than half the industry today
kevin084life this comment is like 3 years too old. Plenty of MCs out now and poppin. We can thank them boys on top for that.
@@SheltonBlackbirdd Who is that kid now is the question. He had Ja's mannerisms but X's influence
@@realone7524 that kid is J.Cole
@@mikeofdc Wow, really?!? Is that a Fact?!?
@@realone7524 yep
2:58 Jay-Z looking around like oh shit.......I fucked up now.
exactly lol
Lmao, for real he got saved at the last minute.
RIP to the LEGEND! Still come back yearly to watch this. 🙌🏽
That straight razor would put pinstripes across yo windpipe line killed it!!!!! I like jay verse too though
Yeah they both spit fire that shit was ridiculous
The white guy behind x with the glasses perfectly describes my face after that last bar . 😯
This video is like a pilgrimage that I make every year for the last 10 years ...still get Goosebumps everytime.
R.i.P to one of the most talented rappers of our time 🙏🏾
X was hot Jay was ok, dude in orange suit killed it
Jayz wasn't ok bro LoL. It's was the most garbage bars I every herd. I freestyle and I'm definitely not coky, but my freestyle is alot better then Jays. I'm tellin you homie
You obviously aint never heard the rest of the song..
ryan worthy jay got off smoothly people don’t understand two great flows n 2 different guys
DMX killed it !!!
DMX WAS TOP DOG OUT OF ALL OF THEM .
The orange suit dude is just all rehersed . Not freestyle.
dmx killed it!!
There's nothing like genuine respect from a collection of legends. As impressive as the Muslim Brother was, I thought Dark Man X took this. That last salvo was nuclear.
x was spitting writtens. Jay spit that off the top
+J Smoov Jay was line biter he made Hip Hop old lines to his Rhymes
ahhaha jay z s freestyle is him readnig words that rhyme off of pieces of paper. is that freestyle? come now. if anything jay s verse was written. he already spat that on a song before this battle. jay z fan much? lol
"Act like you don't know what I'm saying
and you gonna read about it."
I remember when I went to a DMX concert it was almost like being at church.. He was special! 🙏🏾😇
Don’t know about you guys but the Muslim guy at the end killed it when he rapped 👑🔥🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏼💯💯 RIP DMX
@von jon naw. That's Hashim Muhammad Hakim (H2) aka the Yellow Suit Man
I think it was wack honestly
@@MrBoochienem idk mabe what he was saying was going over your head but if you get a legitimate reaction from the crowd saying that shit fire and jay and x happened to be in the crowd you know people was feeling your shit brah just saying lol
@@ericcaires6423 later on Hashim would release an album with a song called "tempted again" to this same beat.
@@heishephaestion4178 I know
Man you need balls to rap in the face of DMX and Jay-Z
TheRealist 811 Yeah but still tho it’s DMX & Jay Z. It’s like if the Muslim guy was with 2 Pac & Biggie
Yessir that was me. Just like I was last in that freestyle cypher with X and Jayz, here’s my latest masterpiece th-cam.com/video/qOMQXtAWbbc/w-d-xo.html ❤️🖤💚✊🏿
No doubt😂😂😂
BIZZY BONE demolished jay-z in a freestyle lil jay didn't even spit his shit
and he killed it too
I’m a Jay-Z fan but X ate him up here.
RIP DMX 🕊🕊🕊
This is from Dr Dre's Up In Smoke Tour...I had this DVD😆
@@angeniquehopkins5246 nah this is from the Hard Knock Life tour
@@4DaFam my brother reminded me of that too! He was like sis I was there wit u...wrong bootleg🤣
Da bodyguard murdered everybody!!!
put pin strips across your wind pipe
when that pin stripes line dropped, white guy in the back already felt what was comin.
And then he smokes after... straight G
Easily one of the hardest lines I have ever heard in my life. Just 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@radioqueenbee7008 Straight fire.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That was fire
Dmx even when he talk , he sound like he's rapping ,WoOf WoOf where my dogs at 😄🔥👍
X voice had a gritty quality that amplified his lyrical ability!
For real.
Built for war like a armadillo
Smokin yo' ass put two through the pilllow
thats my shits im real
manic depressive and my head hurts yo
give me yo do and yo ho and here, take these foes.
Hashim Hakim aka the last guy KILLED IT
Whoever Uploaded This You Will Live Bountifully, Many Blessings.
"Put pinstripes across yo windpipe" Genius
what if the dude in the suit was just like a greeter or something and was like "fuck it they passing the blunt im jumping in this cypher
The dude in the suit was the Muslim security provided by the Nation of Islam.
Jay Z was third best that’s crazy
Its crazy how this dude is a legend just from rappin wit Jay and DMX on video
Who is that man? Is that jay electronics?
+thereisnootherable fuck no.. He was just a security/ bodyguard for the venue
+thereisnootherable My name is Hashim Hakim. Follow me on Twitter as HashimRedeemed or like my music fan page on FB as H2. I'm the brother who freestyled with X and Hov
+Hashim Hakim Respect, brother Hashim,flow is nice!
Assalamu alaikum brother.
Big L was the one recording this as well!!! Thanks for the history fellas!!
The muslim dude killed it they should have signed him.
Suntzuu Suntzuu What really happened Backstage with Jayz, DMX and Hashim Hakim (Security Guard) ?th-cam.com/video/fHfkB3tZRNU/w-d-xo.html
He was my favorite
Shut up
Yessir that was me. Just like I was last in that freestyle cypher with X and Jayz, here’s my latest masterpiece th-cam.com/video/qOMQXtAWbbc/w-d-xo.html ❤️🖤💚✊🏿
@@hashimhakim3052 AWSOME!!!
We leavin' the way we came...
Ah Salaam alekum...
The Punch Line Of The Day!!! 💯 💯 💯
Dmx style can never be copied it’s a rare form that can imitated the grittiness the aggression I miss this guy 🙏🏾
I remember when I bought my Hummer H2 the first they came out. DMX drove one in a movie with Steven Segal. I was so nervous because it was rush hour and the dealer I purchased it from was over an hour away. After getting through local traffic and got on the interstate, I played Ain’t No Sunshine by DMX !!
Yes I’m a cop, but also born and raised in Yonkers NY.
Rest easy ...
Dmx is a fucking legend!!!!!!after 2pac x was my favorite....and he still IS!!!!!!
After 2pac?
Bruh I'm 100% with ya i always said Pac my #1 and X picked up torch
not a battle. Cypher circle. Ruff Ryders/Def Jam/Rockafella Documentary
Backstage
Backstage dj clue
Christian Lyrik you a liar tryna make jay z out to be some weak rapper they had a battle before this and it was a tie
Back in 99 when Jayz and Dmx performed in Montreal
I can say 1 thing.
When DMX came on stage ,the crowd went NUTZ.compared to when Jayz was on
I can't believe I missed this 😭 😭 😭
MONTREAL...Wow wish I was there!
OG just blew DMX’s mind with that last verse. RIP to the Great DMX
Jay-z ain't no dmx that's for sure
Maybe not but no solo artist on this planet has more consecutive number 1 albums on the Bill Board 200. If DMX could have made 14 number 1 albums 14 times straight he would have, but he didn't.
That's not easy for a rapper to do. The Beatles had 19 and they are a group. Elvis only had 10.
Eminem gets a lot of credit, but if he was black, his album accomplishments would look a whole lot less. Not to mention how many consecutive year after year albums did any of these guys do?
Drake maybe the only one close.
Jay did it long before Twitter.
🙏RIP DMX 🙏 I still can't believe that he has left us..Now heaven has the 2 best rappers from our generation,Tupac and now DMX...
That Muslim reminds me of Scarface a little bit...ijs!!
The last dude in the red suit I always thought was the best.
DMX ... all day kills it... Love his voice & his forever love of God❣️
Man I miss these moments in Hip Hop! So much respect, camaraderie and unity. You could tell Jay and X had mad respect for each other as killer MCs. I remember watching this movie at 15 and bugging out at the level of rap skills these dudes had. X will be missed for sure. One of the greatest to ever bless a mic.
When X said " When my time is up .. Ima be out but ima try to live" that shit hit different because that's exactly what he did before he passed ... Legends Neva DIE!!! DoubleR I P DARKMAN X 🤞🏾
I knew I wouldn’t be the only one to come back and watch this iconic video. RIP X
