Born Earl Simmons,DMX began rapping and beatboxing as a teenager.In 1992,twenty-two year old DMX signed a contract with Columbia Records.His first single “Born Loser” didn't receive much notice,and for this reason Columbia opted to let him go.He has since then jumped from label to label.
In 1998,Def Jam Records released DMX's single “Get At Me Dog”.The song became a hit and allowed DMX's debut album “It's Dark and Hell Is Hot” to reach number one in the pop charts.The album itself earned the artist favorable comparisons with legend Tupac Shakur.Later that same year,DMX's sophomore album “Flesh of My Flesh,Blood of My Blood” came out and hit number one,and gave him a hit in the UK (for the track “Slippin'”).
A year later,DMX released “...And Then There Was X”,yet another number one debut.Its single “Party Up” was in the top ten of the R&B charts,and the album spawned two other hits in “What's My Name” and “What These Bitches Want?” “...And Then” is considered to be DMX's most successful album to date.It was followed by 2001's “The Great Depression”,which,while successfully debuting at number one,did not quite reach the hype of his former albums.
Two years later came “Grand Champ”,once more debuting at number one.Supposed to be DMX's final album,it featured the singles “Where the Hood At?” and “Get It On the Floor”.“Grand Champ”,while a bit more successful than its predecessor,was also considered to be “old hat”.It has two versions released:an original version and a “cleaned up” version.The cleaned up version is said to be the most censored DMX album.
In 2006,DMX came out of retirement and released “Year of the Dog...Again”.While it narrowly missed the number one spot in the charts,it still spawned great tracks in “Lord Give Me a Sign” and “We In Here”.Its tracks are supposedly being reworked and re-released.
DMX's seventh studio album,“Soul of a Man” is scheduled to be released in 2007 or 2008.
DMX,原名Earl Simmons,十几岁的时候就开始说唱跟beatboxing(相当于freestyle 对决)了.在1992年,20岁的DMX签约于Columbia Records,但他的首支单曲“Born Loser”并没有获得多大反响,也就因为这原因,Columbia Records决定和DMX解除合约.从那时起,DMX跌跌撞撞地换了好几家唱片公司.
1998年,Def Jam Records发行了DMX的单曲“Get At Me Dog”,这首歌成为了大热,也就成就了DMX的首张流行榜冠军大碟《It's Dark and Hell Is Hot》.这张专辑的面世,令到舆论界将DMX跟说唱伟人Tupac Shakur相提并论.1998年底,DMX出版了第二张专辑《Flesh of My Flesh,Blood of My Blood》,同样成为了销量榜的冠军,也为DMX带来了第一只英国大热单曲“Slippin'”.
1999年底,DMX出版了第三张大碟《...And Then There Was X》,毫无疑问又是一张销量榜的冠军专辑.其中的单曲“Party Up”是当年R&B榜的十大,专辑中的其它歌单曲如“What's My Name” 、“What These Bitches Want?”也相继成为大热.《...And Then There Was X》成为了DMX出道以来最成功的专辑.虽然DMX出版的第四张专辑《The Great Depression》也惯性的成为了销量榜的冠军,但从各方面的表现来说,都没有以往专辑出色了.
2年后,DMX宣称是他退出乐坛前的最后一张专辑——《Grand Champ》再次登上销量榜的冠军宝座,里面收录了“Where the Hood At?”、“Get It On the Floor”等的热门单曲,比较起《The Great Depression》来说,这次的《Grand Champ》表现得算是比较出色,不过乐评界都说DMX在走老路子没有任何新意.《Grand Champ》出版了两个版本,一个是PA版一个是“相对干净”版,“cleaned up”版被誉为DMX有史以来最不暴+++力最不色+++情的专辑.
2006年,DMX复出并出版了《Year of the Dog...Again》专辑,虽然里面收录了如“Lord Give Me a Sign”、“We In Here”等的优良作品,但已经不能再象以往的专辑那样hot shot debut(首周)冠军了.《Year of the Dog...Again》专辑内的歌曲,被猜测是DMX库存作品中的再制作、再录音跟再出版.
DMX的第七张大碟《Soul of a Man》预计2007年或2008年发行.
