On 1 June 2021, it was proposed that this article be moved from DMX (rapper) to DMX. The result of the discussion was moved.

The sources 104 & 105 clearly state “no confirmation of drug overdose” so how come that these both sources are stated here for this misleading and wrong assumption. Please correct it!

DMX had 17 children.

His death is so far not directly mentioned in the lede, which I believe is common practice, especially in case of other-than-natural causes, true? This is a condensed version of the second half of § Health issues and death:

In April 2021, DMX was hospitalized due to a cocaine-induced heart attack. He never regained consciousness and died of multiple organ failure a week later.

The current two paragraphs are both strictly career-related, so I guess this should constitute a new third paragraph?

Done , although we should eventually add some of his posthumous coverage to the lead as well. A S U K I T E 00:54, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Review and banish Kvnglxo from editing this article

UGH!!!! I'm so agitated right now. All the edits this user Kvnglxo is making are so atrocious. Either you sort this out on his talk page or somebody will have to teach him some manners. I cannot take it anymore. Just leave this article alone unless you have reliable or legitimate sources and not mess ups. I'M SO RAGING RIGHT NOW!!!! I need to get some sleep.
