Favorite Track - DMX
Favorite Track - DMX
Wanted to try somebody a little bit older this time. With 5 consecutive #1 albums on the Billboard Charts between 1998 and 2003, DMX was absolutely enormous in the late 90s. While the language in some of his songs hasn't aged great, there is no denying that he was an absolute phenomenon and a legend in the game.

I could list favorite hype songs by DMX forever so I thought I'd just drop Slippin
Shit was to real
Man, DMX was so good. I haven't heard this track in ages. I know I'm guilty of mostly thinking of him for his more hype songs but he was so good on this less aggressive stuff too. Slippin and Damien off of his first album are probably his best two outside of the style he is known for (and Look Thru My Eyes of course). Fantastic choice.
Pull It (with Camron) Niggaz Done Started Somethin (w/Lox and Mase) We Right Here The Convo X Gone Give It To Ya
Pull It (with Camron), Niggaz Done Started Somethin (w/Lox and Mase), We Right Here, The Convo, X Gone Give It To Ya
All solid songs. We Right Here is a weird one for me because it is off of my least favorite album of his (out of his big 5). That said, it is a good fucking track. I just never hear it because if I'm in the mood for DMX, I don't look at that album.
Also, I've never heard Pull It nor have I ever even heard of the album it is on, Clue for President: Vote Clumanatti. This is dope, ty for sharing!
I will share a few. I'm incredibly basic sometimes so my favorite DMX song is Where The Hood At. I think everybody knows this song. It includes one of my personal grossest lyrics "beat my dick and bust off in your eye so you can see me comin'".
My favorite deep cut is Look Thru My Eyes off of his first album. This was one of the first hiphop albums I ever bought and this song consistantly got burned to the mix CD's I'd make myself.
Favorite feature is on Go To Sleep, with Eminem and Obie Trice. This song makes me want to fight my grandma. The fact that him and this era of Eminem didn't do more together is an absolute shame. Special shout out to Who's Real. This is the better actual feature, just the weaker overall song. This is from well after his prime too, in 2009.
