Rapper DMX was one of America s most successful stars of the late 1990s and 2000s, whose achievements earned him a place in music history when he became the first artist to see his first five albums go to number one in the Billboard charts.
They sold 14 million copies in the US and earned him three Grammy nominations, and he enjoyed a parallel career as the star of blockbuster action films.
The secret to DMX s musical power was his singular ability to be commercial while keeping his hardcore credibility intact.
