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.
IT S a new year, a new lockdown, and a new single release for Isle of Wight band, King Kuna. In June, 2020, the summer lockdown inspired the three-piece alternative heavy rock band to write and release their first full album. On January 29, their latest single, Year Of The Dog, will be available to listen to and download. The track is the last single from the trio s first album, Isolation Music, which was recorded entirely at home during the first lockdown. The band, which comprises Jack Singleton, Alex Benson and Phil Legaspi, have been together for five years. They have played the Isle of Wight Festival multiple times and released several singles and EPs.
