DMX

Earl Simmons (18 Desemba 1970 –  9 Aprili, 2021), aliyejulikana kisanii kama DMX, alikuwa msanii wa rap na mwigizaji kutoka nchini Marekani. Alichukuliwa kama mtu mwenye ushawishi mkubwa katika muziki wa hip hop mwishoni mwa miaka ya 1990 na mwanzoni mwa miaka ya 2000, muziki wake unajulikana kwa mtindo wake wa kurap kwa "zogo", huku maudhui ya mashairi yake yakibadilika kutoka kwenye mada za hardcore hadi maombi.

DMX alianza kurap mwanzoni mwa miaka ya 1990. Baada ya kipindi kisicho na mafanikio akiwa na Columbia Records, alisaini na Ruff Ryders Entertainment kupitia mkataba wa ushirikiano na Def Jam Recordings ili kutoa albamu yake ya kwanza, It's Dark and Hell Is Hot (1998), ambayo ilipokelewa kwa mafanikio makubwa ya kibiashara na kiufasaha—ikiuza nakala 251,000 katika wiki yake ya kwanza na kutoa wimbo ulioshika nafasi ya juu kwenye Billboard Hot 100, "Ruff Ryders Anthem". Ilikuwa ya kwanza kati ya albamu zake tano zilizofuatana kufungua nafasi ya kwanza kwenye chati ya Billboard 200, na kumfanya DMX kuwa msanii wa kwanza katika historia ya chati hiyo kufanikiwa hivyo. Albamu yake ya pili, Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood (1999) ilifuatiwa na albamu ya tatu,  (1999), ambayo ikawa albamu yake iliyouzwa zaidi na iliungwa mkono na wimbo wake wa pili ulioshika nafasi ya juu kwenye chati, "Party Up (Up in Here)". Albamu yake ya nne, The Great Depression (2001) ilifuatiwa na albamu ya tano, Grand Champ (2003), iliyokuwa na wimbo wa kwanza "Where the Hood At?" na ikijumuisha wimbo wa ziada wa kimataifa "X Gon' Give It to Ya". Ingawa matoleo yake yaliyofuata hayakupata mafanikio makubwa kitahakiki na kibiashara, kufikia mwaka 2021, DMX alikuwa ameuzwa zaidi ya nakala milioni 75 duniani kote.

DMX alionekana kwenye filamu kama Belly (1998), pamoja na Nas, Romeo Must Die (2000) na Cradle 2 the Grave (2003), pamoja na Jet Li, Exit Wounds (2001) na Beyond the Law (2019), pamoja na Steven Seagal, na Last Hour (2008), pamoja na Michael Madsen. Mnamo mwaka 2006, alicheza kama nyota katika kipindi cha televisheni cha uhalisia DMX: Soul of a Man, ambacho kilirushwa hewani hasa kwenye mtandao wa BET wa cable television. Mwaka 2003, alichapisha kitabu cha kumbukumbu zake kilichoitwa E.A.R.L.: The Autobiography of DMX.
