TMZ: DMX in grave condition after a drug overdose. Update: DMX has passed away.

[jbug617]

DMX suffered a drug overdose Friday night and is currently in the hospital ... and the prognosis is not good.

Sources close to the rapper tell TMZ, the OD occurred at his home at around 11 PM. Our sources say the overdose triggered a heart attack.

DMX was rushed to a hospital in White Plains, New York and is in the critical care unit. We're told he has "some brain activity." Another source says he's in a "vegetative state" and doctors have cautioned he may not make it.

Oh shit

 

[MGPanda]

This poor guy... Didn't something similar happen rather recently? Man, I hope he manages to get out of this one, but it's sadly not looking good at all.

 

[StrapOnFetus]

Oh shit, damn.

 

[zzz]

Setting the bar at "some brain activity" doesn't seem good...

 

[CountAntonio]

Fuck. Sad to hear he couldn't stay clean. Really hope he pulls through.

 

[stn]

God, I hope he makes it.

 

[ILikeFeet]

that's not a hopeful description

Same. I doubt he'll make it.

 

[Deleted member 30411]

We really made him lose his mind then

 

[Doggg]

Sad. Hope he pulls through.

 

[PanSexual_Peacock]

Damn. Thought he was doing better recently. Hope he pulls through.

 

[Hoa]

Fuck, was seeming like he was getting things together, at least significantly better than his lows before. Hope he pulls through.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Damn, hope he can pull through , doesn't sound good.

 

[Z-Beat]

Damn, that report from the doctors doesn't inspire confidence in his recovery at all. Hope he pulls through but it seems unlikely

 

[HStallion]

Damn that's a brutal prognosis. How he pulls through but that's grim.

 

[OnanieBomb]

Fuck

[BusterSword]

Damn. This has got me fucked up.
X was a HUGE part of my childhood.
I stole a cd copy of Its Dark and Hell is Hot from my dad in like 1999 and it changed my life.
Really hoping he pulls through but it doesn't sound good.

 

[gdt]

Fuck man.

 

[Thrill_house]

Seeing dmx as a crackhead was pretty sad. Always shitty seeing someone come from nothing and make it, only to be shattered down the road. Hope he pulls through and cleans up.

[Nassudan]

If he makes it i hope this is the corner he turns and goes clean.

 

[HiLife]

This dudes has been deteriorating for years. It'd suck if he went but that description doesn't sound hopeful at all. Bout to throw on some It's Dark and Hell is Hot (goat intro of a hip hop album) to cheer me up.

I mean aside from the less important fact that this joke doesn't really even make sense this was a disgusting post.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

TMZ usually hella accurate about these things. Vegetative state means there is nothing to be done and it's just about over. Take care of your bodies, Era.

 

[boontobias]

That does not sound good at all. I thought he was doing better with music and some movies.

 

[Tbm24]

Damn, hope he pulls through but folks from my childhood keep dropping earlier than they're suppose to :(.

 

[Ascenion]

Damn man, that shit doesn't sound good at all. Fuck, I hope he pulls through somehow.

 

[Pall Mall]

Sounds like he's in a vegetative coma which usually means he's gone. :/

No, it makes a whole lot of sense, just that it's really early for jokes. It took at least a year for Tupac living in Cuba to be funny

Edit: To explain the joke, a famous line from one of his songs is "yall gonna make me lose my mind" and in this story he has "some brain activity"

 

[thekonamicode]

Hope he pulls through!!!

 

[rsfour]

I hope he makes it, but the news so far...damn.

 

[cw_sasuke]

That's messed up. Thought he was on its way to recovery.

Praying for everyone involved, he has a lot of children and many people that depend on him so that's gonna be extra rough. Damn drugs.

 

[Senator Toadstool]

hope he he gets better!

Docs probably having that hard "quality of life outlook" convo with the family.

 

[foxuzamaki]

I really really hope he pulls through

 

[Deleted member 4274]

This sucks… and please, easy on the jokes.

 

[StarStorm]

Oh shit, describing his condition with "some brain activity" doesn't sound good at all.

 

[DOT_mjo]

About to lose another rap fucking legend smh. This fucking sucks.

 

[benzy]

He's battled with drugs ever since a teen. Dude is one of the greats, hope he pulls through.
