This is one episode that disturbed me to the fullest..
I have been a fan of DMX since he started.. I know that he is a TROUBLED man but I NEVER thought in a million years this man was this TROUBLED.. I watched him on the Couples Therapy... I really didn't like his attitude but I thought after he got a chance to talk to his mother.. Then maybe he was on the road to healing.. You see the pain in him.. I like the idea with Iyanla had people #SupportDMX because he TRULY needs it..
Well the way he talked to Iyanla was the 1st mistake he made in my book.. How dare he talk to this women that way.. This showed me he has NO RESPECT for women at all.. (he can't keep holding his mother at fault).. He was just too rude and had too much attitude.. I thought to myself how was she able to keep her cool with him.. She is that good.. (I respect her for that)..
He says he is addicted to women, weed, and alcohol.. I don't believe it.. I think he is still doing cocaine.. His mood swings is of a crack cocaine addict.. Something stood out to me though.. He says he rather stay in the darkness.. ( sounds very suicidal to me) He rather hold on to hurts so he knows not to go back there.. He is TRULY screaming HELP ME!! PLEASE HELP ME!! He just need to admit to himself.. I don't think anyone in their RIGHT mind would want to hold on to hurts.. I know for a fact that it is hard to let go of pain and hurt.. It's a struggle for me.. This just doesn't excuse his disrespect to someone who is trying to help..
This pain is slowly killing him on top of the substance abuse too.. I really don't want to see another Whitney... People need to reach out to this man.. Someone needs to stop feeding into his demands..
I also thought prior to this show that DMX was trying to live a decent life.. He has moved here to South Carolina in city (town) near me.. He has a lot of fans here and we all have been excited to have him move here.. The town he stays in is very quiet and peaceful.. A few months ago he did get arrested in Spartanburg.. He was driving without licence... It made the headlines on our local news stations.. Heck around here there are a lot of folks driving without licence..
The 2nd mistake was how he talked and treated his son.. OMG that brought tears to my eyes.. At that point I was about to loose ALL RESPECT for Mr. Earl Simmons.. Something went through me.. He would choose substances over his OWN CHILDREN.. I think that showed me that he doesn't love himself... If I had children and they came to me with concerns.. You best believe I would think about the things I was doing that hurt and can affect my children.. What parent is like this? I know I know it is the drugs but I tell you.. NO DRUG ON THIS EARTH should make a PARENT put their children second.. He said "I guess I will see you at my funereal".. WHAT THE HAYAL? I was glad that his son didn't get up and hug him.. He doesn't deserve it.. He need a straight damn jacket.. He is a freaking crazy ass nut.. I was so hot with him..
This is why I tell these young folks.. Don't idolize these stars.. They got issues, skeletons, and demons too.. What they do doesn't always mean you got to do it too..
I hope that this man get help.. I hope before it is too late he will become a sober man.. I pray for him and his family.. Maybe one day some healing will come and everything will be alright.. I also hope he will watch this show and see what kind of FOOL he made himself look like...

Hey I wrote about this, too. I am highly annoyed because he has the nerve to say the show made things worse instead of better. Peek my blog entry I just recently put up.
C'mon, you and No Labels both...ya'll had to know better. I like his music, I always did. Particularly the track that No Labels placed in her post about DMX today, but.....
He's not exactly the type of guy that you invite over the house to sit down with your grandmother for Oreos and milk. Dude looks like he's got some serious anger issues.
This brother needs Jesus.
I agree. He has mental issues and needs those to be addressed. I think its cocaine induced also. For someone as old as him to keep blaming other people for how he acts really puts me off. I don't like people who keep taking up for how he treated his son, it disgusted me. I don't care if you grew up without a father, as a human being you know there wasn't anything cool about that... for people to say oh he didn't know how to be a dad so what did you expect, give me a break. I can't even count on my fingers and toes how many men I know who had no father in their life and would never have been treating their sons like one of the homies instead of their child.
I don't think he will ever get help because he won't do his part of that process. I can't do anything but pray that he gets some form of forgiveness from all those he hurt along the way, including himself.
