I just think it's dumb that 3 different guys named themselves DMX.

there it is, the dumbest post
"Eddie "Guitar" Burns, Guitar Slim, Johnny Guitar Watson... blues musicians sure are dumb assholes."

But now name me some other rappers named after specific drum machines.
― i will show you fear in a handful of nuts (how's life), Friday, 11 May 2012 14:20 (eleven years ago) link
these guys all are (or started out) as human beatboxes, not rappers. that's why they're named after the most common drum machine of the era in which beatboxing flourished.

gr8080 started out as a beatboxer

D-Nice called himself "the TR-808" a lot, Ready Rock C was the "Human Linn Drum" etc etc

And let us not forget Def Jam main man Russell Simmons.

D-Nice called himself "the TR-808" a lot Tbf he did say you could just call him d nice
― Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 11 May 2012 14:32 (eleven years ago) link
so Pete Nice was named after a guy named after a drum machine, IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
― some dude, Friday, 11 May 2012 14:32 (eleven years ago) link
wait, there a d-nice and a pete nice? so confusedd
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Friday, 11 May 2012 14:34 (eleven years ago) link
Also I knew davy dmx but not human dmx
Though I think it's kinda weird for pete nice to drop it in there and have ppl not assume he's talking about DMX....dude had been around for awhile before he blew up, with that born loser stuff, but it's not out of the possibility that a really young dmx and just could have performed together
― Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 11 May 2012 14:34 (eleven years ago) link
Edward III, it's ready to get them confused, just remember pete nice was the prime minister of canada at the the time and also rapped in the ny scene, camron and company did a concept album about his life called ”diplomatic immunity”

to be fair it was a Deadspin editor's job to clean this up, not Pete Nice's
― thommys got bendz (Whiney G. Weingarten), Friday, 11 May 2012 14:40 (eleven years ago) link
Pete Nice probably forged the anecdote like he forges baseball memorabilia amirite

said editor probably didn't know there was any other DMX's

Probably wasn't worth it, bringing 3rd Bass into the thread.

I was thinking this morning about MCA, and how his gruff voice would have transformed really well into old age.

That's awesome, but they could not have picked a less MCA-centric track, bass aside.

The bass is that song though, ad much as the suspenders and mustaches.

I'm sure Yauch would rather these people spend some time reading up on Tibetan oppression or do a shift at a soup kitchen, but I'm not gonna deny people the opportunity to deal with his death in a way that makes them comfortable.
