RIP DMX…That is Just How Ruff Ryders Roll

Hearing the news of DMX passing today was tough. For some well they might not know much about him which is a shame because DMX is a lot bigger then they realize. Let’s dive deeper into DMX’s style and showcase 5 of his top songs.

DMX was a rapper who was biggest in the late 90’s and very early 2000’s. DMX style was unique. If anyone ever says they could never hear aggression or pain in a rappers voice, while they clearly never listened to DMX. As for the Black and Pink Nation personal memory of DMX, it would have to go back to 2015, when coach of the JRF Panthers Derek Evans showed up to the game with a boom box blaring “Ruff Ryders Roll” to get the team pumped up for the game. Let’s juts saying the opposing team and ump where not a big fan of this nor DMX for that matter. Too bad they didn’t realize what a legend they were missing out on.

Speaking of Ruff Ryders Roll here is the song and music video below to check it out…
