Favorite Track - DMX (ttrpg.network)

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.

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!

It was a mixtape song when it first dropped so you'd only hear it on radio mixshows and the mixtapes; I don't think it ever got an official release, probably due to a sample clearance

That explains a lot, because I was ~9 when that tape came out and I don't even know if I knew what rap was at that point in my life. I need to try to find some of these old mix tapes from the 90s, I'm sure there is a ton of stuff like this I've never heard.

You can find a lot of those old mixtapes on YouTube, Mixcloud, and SoundCloud
