"People should hear what he wanted them to hear. Nothing should stop the creativity from flowing because it’s actually what he had fun doing. This was his gift to his audience and his family and his fans. It’s only right that people should get the gift that he left them."

Back in 2015, I had a chance to sit down with X for his first interview since being released from jail in Buffalo. During the nearly 20-minute interview, DMX talked about ministering, music, and more!
