On this special tribute episode, the hosts explore the extensive career of legendary rapper, DMX. They delve into why DMX held such a crucial role in countering the prevailing "jiggy" rap scene of his era with his raw, gritty style, giving voice to the common people's anger and struggles. The host, Zach, and guest Darius discuss the significance of DMX's poignant storytelling in songs like "Slipping" and "Damien," painting him as a skilled artist grappling with his personal demons. They intensely examine DMX's records, debating the lyrics and impact of songs concerning broader societal issues. This episode culminates in a top ten list of DMX's songs, which includes surprisingly unanimous choices such as "Where the Hood At?" and "Let Me Fly." The listeners are encouraged to share, subscribe, and give feedback on whether the hosts successfully "killed this list." They promise further exploration of DMX's career and a revisit of this episode in a year.
