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.

Share your favorite DMX songs. Radio singles, deep cuts, amazing features, whatever you can find.

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.
