DMX died too

[mysteriouswife]

Tragic loss due to OD. Rumors said he tested positive of Covid this week. Possibly picked up in the hospital

I was just reading the Washington Post obit - they haven't confirmed the OD reports from TMZ.

Not that it pertains to his death but I learned yesterday the man fathered 15 children.

[mysteriouswife]

I can’t read WP, but his family confirmed the OD over the weekend

Me too. I was amazed by that. The children seemed to be by him the entire time from what I was reading. I hope they find peace and love through one another over the next few weeks and months. Losing a father at a young age will require a village. I am not sure of the oldest age, but pictures make me think there are some smaller children

So tragic. I hope his family finds peace.

50 is very young

Please remember to add @ tags as needed.

50 is so young for a heart attack (as reported in the Washington Post article).

Oldest is 28. Next is 22. Next is 18. All boys.

The rest are ages 15-5.

Lots of little people still growing up 😢

I always had a soft spot for him because he grew up in Yonkers near where I grew up.

Aw man His music is so of-a-time for me; like I am immediately transported back to cruising around in my HS best friend's car and flirting with boys in the bowling alley parking lot.

Same except it was down a main street of a town near me. Good times.

No sorry for confusion. The oldest 3 (adults) are boys. The 15 yo is a girl and the younger are a mix.

I quote this man daily. I did not know he was so young.

"Ya'll gon make me lose my mind up in here, up in here" is basically on repeat in my head during the work week.

[aspentosh]

Damn. So young. I love his music and still regularly quote it.

[foundmylazybum]

I hope he is in peace now and his family also finds peace.

I know DMX came from a really complex and traumatic background.

He had a lot of dogs throughout his life and was involved in several cases where his dogs were seized due to serious abuse.

I feel like he was a person who suffered a lot of hurt in his life and it probably rolled into tons of other aspects of his life.
