I agree. Mediocre rapper and arrested multiple times for animal cruelty. No sympathy for this man.

I mean without getting in to anything else you've mentioned, saying he was a mediocre rapper is just ridiculous.

R.I.P DMX - one of my favourite rappers from my favourite era of hip-hop.

Really sad news.

This was his last interview [ 2 months ago]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWWKJ8a3vqc&t=3345s


As great as it was, it was really frustrating that they surrounded him with alcohol [it's the theme of the podcast] but given his addiction problems, why in the world would you do it

Yeah I watched that yesterday, I do love Drink Champs but it was a bad idea having him surrounded by alcohol. I’m glad he got his flowers last year when he done the Verzuz with Snoop.

Agree on the Drink Champs bit, wasn't the best idea to have him on there.

The night we lifted the title against Chelsea the Verzuz was, one of the best nights of my life.

Fucking hell what is going on. He was still getting a million streams a month on Spotify and he was homeless. The big hip hop heads needs to do something for it's artists now. It's not right.

Went to a club in Hamburg two years ago and when the DJ dropped Whoa, it went off in there.

Yep I Rememeber going to Westwood club nights and it used to be crazy when this track was played.

Black Rob was just another victim to the bad boy curse.  Diddy has screwed over many artists. His nothing but a snake.

Been on a 90's hip hop mood this week.

How good are the debut albums of Raekwon (OBFCL) and Black Moon's (Enta Da Stage), just essential listening of a bygone golden age.

My 2 fav tracks from those albums.

Had a listen to the new DMX album and had to turn it off about a quarter way through. Just wasn't enjoying it at all really. I've been like that with most recent hip hop albums lately though, even the new Mach Hommy album which is getting rave reviews I just didn't enjoy.

Maybe I'm getting old!

I like it for what it is. Feels like a DMX album. Swizz Beatz does some good work on it, some nice features. Not sure what people were expecting of it. Not bad as posthumous albums go.

In any case, Rest In Peace Earl Simmons.

Just brilliant Tyler the creator, seen him twice live and blown away both times. Also met him on Fairfax in Los Angeles with my lads who are both big fans and he was so boss with them it was fantastic . Actually make that 3 times cos me and eldest went to his off the hook fashion show and he gave everyone a pair of his converse collab shoes.

He was definitely more coherent and personal. I really don't think Royce wanted to get that personal but he was prodding and poking too much on these IG live things going on about checking boxes, just being dead vague and shit. Now Mickey Facts has dissed Royce too and that's Lupe's boy so it feels like they've jumped on him a bit now so I think it's gone beyond just playfulness. As Royce said though, goat got rapper friend too. *Enter crooked*
