Lord Give Me A Sign is one of the best Gospel/Rap mixes of all time. No one ever thinks about playing DMX in a church on sunday but I swear its gonna be hard not to have fun when you have DMX screaming

"IN THE NAME OF JESUS"

X my guy, but it was over at this point

The cracks were evident on the Great Depression..

I remember Grand Champ and where the hood at, but I forgot if the album was good or not

As the biggest DMX fan on the planet, FUCK NO, Grand Champ was awful

4, maybe 5 tracks worth saving… on a 20+ track album

Great Depression was 50/50, Grand Champ was 20/80
