Because he fell off.
Now he's remembered as a drug addict and someone who can't stay out of jail.
But that's my opinion, though.

i feel what ou're saying but does that take away from the music he made, i think all of his albums are pretty good to very good.

Nah that doesn't take away from his music at all.
I hear people still say DMX is good.
But as of right now no one cares about him anymore so he wouldn't get that recognition to be considered a great artist.

[h3]It's Dark and Hell Is Hot (199
[/h3][h3] Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood (199[/h3][h3] ...And Then There Was X (1999)[/h3]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...And_Then_There_Was_X
[h3] The Great Depression (2001)[/h3][h3]Grand Champ (2003)[/h3]Year of the Dog...Again (2006)
3 things happened to X...da drugs, leaving def jam, and da hiatus...between 2001-2006 ALOT happened in da world let alone da music world...staying idle so long froze his career, and X
was never da type to make mixtapes to keep da streets hot.
def jam was taylor made for him and he left over jay-z running it.....son should've weathered da storm.

WOOOOW, that's just buffoonery now. You're now on the same boat as Harlem with all his Drake's album is a classic and Optimus with all his Drake slurping. The three of y'all just can't be taken seriously

But you act like DMX is Jeezy or something...
I love how there's no medium here, you're either a lyrical beast, or Jeezy-esque.

dude is the rap equivalent of Jose Canseco. Roger Clemens. Raphael Palmeiro. Sammy Sosa.

This. DMX was a mid tier lyrical rapper, but his inflections and delivery were maximized by his raw delivery andAppproach to da mic. His first 3 albums are classic.

He made a lot of wack music and his flow was choppy
Not an all time great
A few gems though
And certainly better than most rappers

So true.

DMX was the KING of the late 90's. Nobody was running rap like him. He ran the billboard charts & more. (Let's not even get into music sales
Great albums (debateable classics) DMX has to be mentioned as one of the greatest rappers/artists of our time because of the commercial success, and quality of albums....

Y'all N's be ****ing on Time...but he's not that far off...
I loved DMX as anybody in the 90s but I can see what he's saying...
Even though I think that's who he really is, his music does come off as gimmicky, with all that barking, yelling and praying and @!+#...
I don't think the drugs +#$#@* his career up as much as people say (I mean, dude was always getting high)...
I think it was inability to adapt that +#$#@* him up...
Dude made the same album over and over again, with each one being slightly worse (only 2 of those albums were really good)...
This N was basically the 50 cent of his time...
Just compare him to Jay...there was once a time where X was unquestionably hotter than Jay...
One rapper was able to adapt to the times the other couldn't...
