Sounds like Jesus may have taken the wheel from DMX for the moment. Dig the fallen hip-hop star as he drops science from behind bars. Good for him for keeping his wits about him (for the most part) during this interview.

This brother is really interrupted. And seriously, we gots to see that so-called sermon he’s talking about – that ish is bound to be pure comedy.

  • just me

    wtf?

  • Hannibal

  • Redd Tony

    I fux wit DMX

  • cookie

    This man is in denial!!! I hate when people say”The devil made me do it”!!! No idiot, you did it!!! No one forced you to smoke then rocks or snort that coke!!!!!!

  • aja

    Get it together D! In whatever you do….That damn reaporter aint askin the right questions. somebody call Tavis Smiley!

  • Anonymous3 – the fire sign

    is it me or is it a C.O.N. spiracy?

  • http://dicooper.spaces.live.com/ DICooper

    Brothers got to work it out…

  • High Life (Glockapella)

    I don’t think he is in denial. He recognized that he has been doing wrong. The question is he really ready to change his life around?

  • Ms T.

    he can’t be serious?

  • Jess Me

    The Devil = HEROINE!

  • si nevaeh

    STAY UP X TAKE TIME OUT 4 YOURSELF 2 NOT JUST ALL THOSE PRISON FOLK! LOVE U X!! 8 KIDS NOW!

  • Ms.Karla

    Lost and turned out. I pray that D finds his way out of the madness cause he is a true talent.

  • Acacia

    Can’t trip…he is probably speaking without any influences (drugs alcohol) for the first time in a long time. He has always sounded like he was mumbling/rambling for as long as I can remember. On his reality show, it was extremely obvious that his struggle was spiritual.

    I love me DMX I just want him to get his self together

  • GoodKarma4me

    DMX life is over..He is pathetic.

  • Crazy Ass Rodney

    Top TWO O you dirty prisonerZ

  • la la

    I don’t think it’s out of the question at all the he could be a pastor. The Lord can and will use anyone He chooses to spread the gospel. One thing he needs to do is drop that name and that whole DMX persona. God won’t use anyone with the name “Dead Man X”. If he want to be use of God, he needs to get rid of all of that and commit fully to God’s calling. I’ll be praying for Earl Simmons and I pray that the Lord gets the glory out of his life.

  • bo no

    He said he got a fiance and a baby on the way .. I could have sworn he was married already

  • katie

    He needs psychological help and a spiritual awakening, I feel sorry for him.

  • TruthBeTold

    Hmmm. I had to take a deep breath on this one.

    First off – you can skip straight to the 7:47 mark thats the only part worth seeing. DMX is confused & yes, we all know how you got in there.,snif..snif..
    8 Kids!!! Woo woo woo & yall talking bout Eryka, how many baby mamas he got? & He’s married?

    Dark man X please get your life together, you had it all. Now your just another crackhead gone wild.

  • sexema73

    first God is good and maybe this will help him turn around everybody got folks they no with drug problems…what makes it any diffrent that it dmx he is regular person to and people sometimes fall..he will get it together and with god on his side he cant fail :) i will be praying for you Earl

  • EARL NEEDS OUR PRAYERS.

    Hey you guys…..I don’t know. I think we should pray for this guy. Please? If you would, take a moment to pray for Earl. I really think God is calling his name……God has a great purpose for his life. Hate to sound soooo preachy….ugh. Oh! But I think it’s certainly neceessary in this case. Please pray for him.

  • EARL NEEDS OUR PRAYERS.

    Sorry! I meant necessary.

  • JoJo

    @ Acacia
    I cosign with everything you said….

  • ME

    I really dont think that people are really giving X the credit that he deserves. It is no secret that he loves the lord and to be honest the realest people are the people that are addicted to some substance, the things that they do are not really who they are. The same as it is for everyone. The facts are that he has never been a evil person, in all of his records and his career he has always thanked the lord and at shows he always ended them with emotional prayers, thats more than you will get from any person thats in the spot light even Kirk franklin doesnt cry while doing his shows or show half the realness and emotion that this guy has when speaking of the lord, so all you people that want to hate on this man cause he has issues with substances really need to step off and look at yourselfs cause im preety sure you are not perfect neither, and if you were in the spotlight where your every move is documented you would look alot worst then this guy. Leave that man alone! he is on his path!

  • Good Good

    Earl is still deep in denial. his statement that it took the devil to show him he was strong enough to pull himself out of trouble is just pure bullshit. The only thing that stop him from killing himself with crack and the resulting lifestyle was the Arizona police and court system.

    He will never do well in recovery until he can admit that he is responsible for his troubles and he is willing to make the necessary changes. He acts like he has been locked down for no reason! God Bless him!

  • random thoughts

    I WAS JUST WATCHING IT AGAIN AND NOTICED HIS HAIRLINE HAS MADE HIS HAIR GROW INTO A WEIRD ISLAND TYPE PIECE ON THE TOP OF HIS HEAD. IT LOOKS LIKE HALF OF A MOHAWK.

    LMAO

  • Kia J.

    He’s looking like Danny Glover here. I hope he gets his life together.

  • PhillyWomanBrownBrown

    i read his book..he needs therapy based on his experiences in childhood.

  • Reemer

    Whats up with the pink long johns??

  • TiVo

    N!ggas always find religion after being locked up.

    And I bet he wants to eat crow after trying to dis Jay-Z about the “Real men don’t wear sandals”.

    Oh but real men get hooked on crack?

    He got no money and he hooked on crack and is in prison. So guess what he got to trade to keep up his habit on the inside.

    N!ggas gonna be lining up in prison to get some DMX spit or sh!t on they dick.

  • Latindoll

    awwwwwwwww, NOW he’s going to be ok

  • http://bossip Van

    DMX has been talking about Jesus for a while now. He knows the way but does not live it. He needs help with his addiction as well as with living the way he speaks about. He needs the help not just someone else in jail with him. Why would God send him and he has nothing to show for how he has changed his life.

  • cheembo

    I love dmx he is an intelligent man and good for him for seeing his shortcomings and preparing to change his life when hes out. <3

  • smiley

    DMX needs to get himself together he is a very talented brother… u just got to pray for him!!!!!

  • 007

    i am happy he gave his life to the Lord, more people need to do this. He is speaking more intelligent than most black men, i hope he recovers from his habit and may he be a champion for God. Lets not forget before Saul became Paul, he use to persecute (kill Christians). I just hope this brother is serious with his life. Also, there are forces out there, especially in the hip hop industry, once you make a pact with them, if you decide to break that contract you are either framed or your character diminished and discredited by their media conglamorate. Get it together x. God bless!

  • Kakey

    Everyone seriously needs to pray for this man.

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    There is nothing better than the pen. The shower is the best part. watching the soap glistening off of their naked bodies, and getting banged in the ass in the shower is great. I’m getting a woody in my shorts just thinking about Jail.

  • eeeeeeeeee

    lol that nigga is crazy. but I love him. he’s one my fave rappers.

  • truth, iam a girl

    TYPICAL BLACK NEGRO!! KKK IS RIGHT BLACK MEN JUST BURY THEMSELVES IN A HOLE! gOT DANG YA SILLY FOLKS.

  • always knew

    I feel sad, when looking at DMX. He used to be a good rapper and I had always hoped he would get himself together…I don’t think it’s funny at all,Another, Black man down…I hope he recovers..I feel so bad for his wife…What a mess she chose….

  • BLANK

    get off the brother… more than half you people probably been through some messed up shit in ya’ll lives, or even did some stupid shit in your life… yet it’s easier to point a finger and talk down to someone. i hope everything works out for him.

  • Candid Canuck

    Imma pray 4 this brutha

  • missunderstood

    I saw DMX over 10 years ago in concert, and he was praying BACK THEN! I have always believed he had a calling and was struggling with the weight God had placed on his shoulders. Speaking from experience, I can truly say that God allows struggle and in so many words ‘the devil’ to manifest himself in many ways in order to bring His children closer to Him. People need to be more forgiving. Judge not, lest ye be judged! That’s why the world is going to hell in a handbasket! You young whipper snappers need to get in the word! God is Good ALL THE TIME!

  • ……………..

    God aint shit. He is the biggest hypocrite ever. He certainly isn’t good all the time. He was never there when I needed him. I’m finished with god. He is just as evil as the devil in my opinion.

  • ……………..

    I know from experience that God will let satan do whatever as long as he does not kill us,

    —————————————————————————————————–
    me too, that is why I’m not praising him ever again. He allows the devil to torment those who try to live their life right according to the bible.

    Job was a righteous man, whom god saw fit to torment him through the devil. The sole purpose of tormenting Job was to see if Job would still praise him after god took everything away that he blessed him with.

    God has made my life hell with torment from the satan the devil and angel he created, and thhrew down here on earth to torment humans and crush their souls.

    God does not intervene, he lets the devil persecute you with no mercy, and still shuman to praise him while they are suffering tremendously.

    I see no purpose to love and praise him for that. He is equally loathsome in my opinion as the devil that he created.

  • The Bear – "Someone will have to pay for the innocent blood that is shed everyday"

    He really needs help!!!I’m not saying that he doesn’t have a calling on his life(We ALL DO actually). But I can see beneath this shell of spirituality he’s wrapping himself in and see that he’s still not out the woods. Does he really think that Arizona is responsible for his situation?

  • la la

    wow
    @ ……….

    All I say about that comment is May God have mercy on you. I’m so sorry that you feel that way about Jesus after all He’s done and is doing for us. I will be praying for you, whoever you are. You have no clue how GOOD the Lord really is to us. You took the story of Job all wrong. The devil basically was calling God out. He said that the only reason Job praised God was because He had blessed him so much, but that if He stopped being so good to him, he would turn his back on the Lord. Of course the devil was proven wrong.
    The Lord wants us to have faith in Him, even during hard times. Please, Please, Please pray.

  • Candid Canuck

    smart interview from the freelance journalist…

    LMAO @ Earl dropping gems from jail in a pink under shirt though..LOL

    imma pray for Earl

  • Spiceema

    X is a talented man but he’s fightin’ with demons that God can only handle and X knows that. and him and his wife aren’t together anymore and I think they had 4 or 5 kids together. I wana say X has 3 or 4 different BM. But i’ma be prayin’ for X because he has a calling from God but he just struggling he will get back with everything.

  • http://yahoo densure

    i think he really loves God, and he is having a prolem, he wasn’t sure how to get there.
    he must drop the silly name and have a christian name to start with.
    God will lead him out and there are things he is teaching him in the prison.

  • gurglex

    He speaks surprisingly proper when he’s sober!!

  • JJ

    For all Mat 7:1-5: Judge not, for what the same measures you judge you shall also be judged!

  • YoUNg RoB..

  • htwinkyyy

    God is good all the time. For all those that think his life is over, in actuality his life is just beginning. I pray for his strength in the Lord.
