Review: A Great Gift For The Hardcore DMX Fan - I purchased this book because: 1) I'm a mega fan of DMX, he's 13 years older than me. His birthday is the day after mine, it's a Sagittarius thing! ♐♐ 2) I wanted to get a deeper understanding of why he did some of the things that he did and the reasons behind them 3) I knew that it was going to be a good read. I have been seeing a lot of people saying that after they read the book, they didn't like him 🤦🏾‍♀️ How can you not like somebody that a) does not know that you even exist or give a damn what you think about him and b) you have never been through the trials and tribulations that he has been through. X had a rough childhood and his trust was taken advantage of by a monster called Ready Ron when he was 14, he's the reason why X was addicted to cocaine. He laced the weed with cocaine and let him smoke it, that monster destroyed his life on top of the fact that his mother treated him like crap and allowed her friends with benefits to beat on him. It's a damn shame how he was treated by the very woman that is his own mother! Yeah he had a drug habit but that didn't make a difference, he was a functional addict that took care of his business and more! He was a good guy and a good friend of my father's, my father was once his bodyguard and for many other celebrities. X was not ashamed to pray in front of others, he did a show at Woodstock and he had the audience in prayer and crying because his prayers were very very powerful. Not many people can do that! So before you go saying that you don't like somebody after reading their autobiography, maybe you need to reevaluate yourself and look back at all of the messed up stuff that you have done and said to people back then. Maybe then you'll see that you're not perfect! Listen to the song that he did with Mary J Blige called Coming From and another one called Slippin', and really listen to the words. You can hear the pain through the lyrics by what he's saying and maybe you can relate to what he said.
