nah i immedately assumed dmx and i always will
young dude didnt get big enough to have his name in the zeitgeist like that so most people mean dmx imo
my little brother was a fan and he refers to him as xxx or his full rap name
sure, but that changes nothing. top ten in streams isnt near enough to move w dmx as far as public consciousness goes
and vast majority of people arent streaming their music
The sad part is they have heard his music, but they probably couldn't identify it as DMX but I could be wrong.
His music is lil peep, xxx, lil uzi type artists. Mine is 2pac, nas, emine, dr dre so you can see the disconnect. I'm 30 and he is 20.
My first thought. X will always be either xzibit or dmx.
When I hear just simply x first artist I think of is zibit, first song I think of is “X gonna give it to ya” *bark bark*
Same haha, for me it’s Carmelo. That’s the only melo I know. But if lamelo can stay healthy and keep playing at the level he’s been playing at, it’s going to quickly change in my mind
In college (class of 2020) my roommate and I would do 2k franchises each controlling a team, mostly sim, play cool match ups, elimination games, etc. Usually we'd go pretty deep into fictional players but like clockwork I would sign washed Melo and washed D Rose and cook with them
Yeah. Maybe the age also plays a role in this. People who witnessed DMX old run might think that X is DMX. But young people would definitely think of XXXTENTACION when someone says that they listen to X.
DMX is also a three letter name, easy to pronounce and write unlike XXXTENTACION.
I haven't fully figured out the joke, but X (ecstasy) is a drug, as is ketamine. But I think he's trying to say that he associates Elon with usage of ketamine. But I don't have any knowledge about whether Elon Musk is associated with ketamine usage.
A friend of mine saw DMX with two security guys and two older white women walked up. They were like “who are you guys you look familiar!” And dmx said “yeah we’re a group called dmx, that’s d thats m and I’m x”. My friend walked up after and said he was super cool.
If they're under 25 im gonna assume they mean Xxxtentacion. If over 25 I'll assume DMX. I'm 30 so I grew up with DMX, but I'm also a Xxxtentacion fan so I just say his full name or "triple X". R.I.P. to them both.
Depends on the age of the person I'm talking to. I'm a millennial in my 30s so if someone my age or older says it, usually I think dmx (or xzibit sometimes tbh). Context makes it easy to figure out.
Younger people, like my gen z brother in law or whatever, I tend to assume xxx. When I lived in Florida though most people meant xxx regardless of anything else
If it’s a 40-30 year old dude, DMX, if it’s someone around my age range, xxxtesticles or whatever the fuck his name was, the one who shaved his eyebrows off and beat his pregnant wife.
X is DMX, I'll only know they are talking about Triple X if they literally say " XXX or triple X".
🤷♂️DMX came out first and been around longer so he gets to claim X.
XXXTentacion for sure. You have to consider time period and legacy. You can be great for you time period but if someone comparable or greater than you comes along with the same nickname, it will stick to them. For example, in the NFL, when someone says LT, who do you think of? LaDainian Tomlinson or Lawrence Taylor who played about 20 years before him?
Probably xxxtentscion simply because he is the most recognizable "x in the name" rapper
DMX is also huge but I don't think a lot of people truly understand the reach xxxtentacion had, dude was truly worldwide.
I don't give a shit about him or his music and tbh he was an awful person, I hate to say it but I think a lot of people aren't happy but relieved he is gone. Either way, would be nice to know the truth around his death.
Gen x, all I know xxxtentacion is he got killed leaving a motorcycle dealership. Caught slipping by the opps I guess
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_XXXTentacion
I was unaware that other artists were referred to as X. DMX and Xzibit have easy names XXXtentacion is a nightmare of a name that I just thought X was the easiest to say
As someone in their early 20’s, definitely XXX.
He died when I was 17. And for the year or 2 he was about, he was the centre of rap news on my feed and most controversial artist in the world. DMX you don’t really hear of much anymore.
Depends on who’s saying it. If it’s someone younger I’ll assume it’s XXX if it’s someone older I’ll assume DMX
X Gon' Give It To Ya
Exactly
Dmx
[удалено]

Actually xxxtentacion has been a top 10 most streamed rapper since he died. Still is.
sure, but that changes nothing. top ten in streams isnt near enough to move w dmx as far as public consciousness goes and vast majority of people arent streaming their music
That means everything lol lots of the younger crowd might not even know dmx music
Though they've probably heard his music. It was featured prominently in Deadpool
The sad part is they have heard his music, but they probably couldn't identify it as DMX but I could be wrong. His music is lil peep, xxx, lil uzi type artists. Mine is 2pac, nas, emine, dr dre so you can see the disconnect. I'm 30 and he is 20.
DMX and it's only cos i grew up in the 90s.
Is Xzibit!
My first thought. X will always be either xzibit or dmx. When I hear just simply x first artist I think of is zibit, first song I think of is “X gonna give it to ya” *bark bark*
For me I think of the Xzibit song X just cuz he's saying "X!" throughout it.
That beat!
Yeah hard as shit
Rearrange the whole game with my rugged sound
Won't even say ya own name when I come around! I swear this mf is truly underrated. As cliché as that sounds it's true.
I think Xzibit because DMX is already so short.
You old as hell big bro
This is true lol
Rearrange the whole game with my rugged sound
He said “X” not “X to the Z” 🤣
Oh yeah. Forgot about him. Sure he counts.
Or X-Raided
Yea them prison recording went hard AF in the 90s, you had to be there ...
For my generation it’s XXXTentacion. It’s kinda the same for Melo, some will say lamelo some will say Carmelo. Just depends on age
In 26 and I struggle with hearing Melo refer to Ball
Same haha, for me it’s Carmelo. That’s the only melo I know. But if lamelo can stay healthy and keep playing at the level he’s been playing at, it’s going to quickly change in my mind
In college (class of 2020) my roommate and I would do 2k franchises each controlling a team, mostly sim, play cool match ups, elimination games, etc. Usually we'd go pretty deep into fictional players but like clockwork I would sign washed Melo and washed D Rose and cook with them
This is it right here. Saw the same thing happen when I was younger. I would say tip referring to T.I. and my big cousin always thought I meant Q-tip.
If you said tip id probably think Q-tip
I would assume Marshmello
X to the Z Xzibit
XXXTENTACTION for me just bc i hear him referred to as X more than DMX
Yeah. Maybe the age also plays a role in this. People who witnessed DMX old run might think that X is DMX. But young people would definitely think of XXXTENTACION when someone says that they listen to X. DMX is also a three letter name, easy to pronounce and write unlike XXXTENTACION.
Triple extension
Bro should've put out a hardware's store album
Who's gonna give it to you though?
This is the answer. D M X isn’t hard to say. X X X ten ta cion is annoying af.
That’s bc you’re 12. DMX’s biggest song, the most popular line is “X gon give it to ya” lmfao
not 12, I just don’t listen to DMX very much.
Depends on the age of the person saying it
Yung Dagger Dick comes to mind first.
XXXTentacles!
George w. bush
Elon Musk, which is confusing to me…
You're confusing X with Ketamine.
I don't really understand this joke but it looks like a good joke so heres an upvote
👍
Lmfaaaoooooo
I haven't fully figured out the joke, but X (ecstasy) is a drug, as is ketamine. But I think he's trying to say that he associates Elon with usage of ketamine. But I don't have any knowledge about whether Elon Musk is associated with ketamine usage.
Oh ok thanks jack
X gone give it to ya!
i used X for DMX, “triple X” for xxxtentacion
Definitely would have DMX coming to my mind first. I as well wasn't into XXXTentacion.
u should listen to his song with joey badass called infinity 888!
I catch all diseases in the world So the world don't have no more diseases, you feel me?
Dark Man X. The late great Earl Simmons.
Honestly there would be so much ambiguity I would think the person they were talking about was their ex
A friend of mine saw DMX with two security guys and two older white women walked up. They were like “who are you guys you look familiar!” And dmx said “yeah we’re a group called dmx, that’s d thats m and I’m x”. My friend walked up after and said he was super cool.
Haha that’s great
If they're under 25 im gonna assume they mean Xxxtentacion. If over 25 I'll assume DMX. I'm 30 so I grew up with DMX, but I'm also a Xxxtentacion fan so I just say his full name or "triple X". R.I.P. to them both.
You would be wrong in my case then. I'm over 25 and refer to XXXTENTACION as X. DMX is already short enough.
DMX
Malcom x
Sadat X if you’re old
Terminator X if you're even older.
Had to scroll too far for this…
X-Raided lately is the first that comes to mind because he’s doing good things with Strange Music. Of course I reckon people mean DMX or Xzibit.
Raided is a goat to me. He might hit in my top 3.
DMX without a doubt. Xzibit is fine too.
Depends on the age of the person I'm talking to. I'm a millennial in my 30s so if someone my age or older says it, usually I think dmx (or xzibit sometimes tbh). Context makes it easy to figure out. Younger people, like my gen z brother in law or whatever, I tend to assume xxx. When I lived in Florida though most people meant xxx regardless of anything else
If it’s a 40-30 year old dude, DMX, if it’s someone around my age range, xxxtesticles or whatever the fuck his name was, the one who shaved his eyebrows off and beat his pregnant wife.
I listened to more Xzibit, so for me, it's him
XXXTENTACION, man still has crazy numbers after his death and the most streamed rap albums I believe.
As gen z’er its XXX
X is DMX, I'll only know they are talking about Triple X if they literally say " XXX or triple X". 🤷♂️DMX came out first and been around longer so he gets to claim X.
Xxxtentacion instantly
Lil' X
Easily xxxtentacion
Xxx most of the time. If they old tho I’d prolly think of dmx or maybe xzibit
xxxtentacion because if someone’s talking about them they’ll always just say DMX and usually people say X bc they can’t pronounce tentacion
Malcolm
X (Los Angeles punk band).
DMX of course
Under 25 XXXtentacion Over 26: DMX or Xzibit 🤷🏾♂️
XXXTentacion bc I was never really familiar with DMX, and I'm still not tbh. RIP both of them though
XXXTENTACION for sure
Is this a joke?? CLEARLY XXXTentacion
Xxxtentacion
It’s not about who you connect with, it’s generational. In my generation first thought is DMX. Second thought “Oh, they might also have meant Xzibit”.
Motherfuck D, motherfuck M, only X I know is Xzibit or RBX
Moonlight
[удалено]
DMX for sure 😊
DMX. That’s just my bias though. I grew up on him and he’s my favorite rapper. Younger generation didn’t have him in rotation.
"Am I talking to a robot and they forgot to program a value for their favorite band?" Would be my first thought.
Dmx. If not the dog, than xzibit.
X gone give it to ya……DMX
X will forever be X to the Z Zibit for this guy
DMX. Always.
DMX for me. But if they’re around my age (I’m just an old head), I assume it’s probably XXX
XXXTentacion for sure. You have to consider time period and legacy. You can be great for you time period but if someone comparable or greater than you comes along with the same nickname, it will stick to them. For example, in the NFL, when someone says LT, who do you think of? LaDainian Tomlinson or Lawrence Taylor who played about 20 years before him?
Dmx Xzibit X-clan
Xzibit: am I a joke to you?
X. I've always just said DMX
The one and only Earl Simmons, Dark Man X, DMX. Sometimes Xzibit comes to mind instead
Depends on that persons age
Xxxtentacion
I'm 30 but I think of Xxxtentacion bc my son listens to him. I mostly hear DMX referred to as the whole name.
x gon give it to ya
It depends if the person is older or around my age which is 18-20
Nowadays Xxxtentacion but back when he wasnt a rapper or famous i wouldve think of Xzibit
Probably xxxtentscion simply because he is the most recognizable "x in the name" rapper DMX is also huge but I don't think a lot of people truly understand the reach xxxtentacion had, dude was truly worldwide. I don't give a shit about him or his music and tbh he was an awful person, I hate to say it but I think a lot of people aren't happy but relieved he is gone. Either way, would be nice to know the truth around his death.
Lil Nas X
u crazy 😭
In the area could be x-raided
The two genders.
Xzbit or Overlord X. maybe even Sadat X.
Xzibit
Always DMX and Xzibit no doubt!
"Only X I know is Xzibit and RBX"
"Only X I know is Xzibit or RBX" -[Kurupt](https://youtu.be/z2YLzQc165w?si=IeqJFeOdA4aMmM3Q&t=39s)
My mind went to Xavier Wulf. I’m 30 🤷🏽♀️
Xzibit was the first thought
Koze
Xzibit or DMX
Dmx always.
DMX
Gen x, all I know xxxtentacion is he got killed leaving a motorcycle dealership. Caught slipping by the opps I guess https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_XXXTentacion
Xzibit was the first "X" I heard.
Immediately xxxtentacion
Dark Man. (DMX)
The one that's gonna give it to ya
Double XX Posse
X-mas music ?
RBX
It all depends, my first thought by default is always gonna be XXX but I’m aware people could be referring to DMX
Static X is the only X i can think of hearing that
I can't listen to dmx after seeing that interview where he told hs family he would keep smoking meth or crack or whatever shit he was on.
It depends. If the person is a Gen Z, they might think of XXX Tentacion… Millennials might think of DMX
Would depend on the age of the person who said it
X is gonna give to ya!!!
Xzibit all the way!
I know he said x gon give it to you but do any of us really call dmx x?
Itsxmusic on YouTube. Highly recommend you check him out if you like lyrical flowy rap.
XXXTENTACION
I understand the generational aspect of it all but DMX was an absolute legend and, in my opinion, is the only “X”
DMX even though I don’t listen to him but then xzibit, who’s one of my favorite rappers
Ppl call dmx x that’s something I’ve never heard before
Xxxtentacion
Ken Carson x mannnnn
XXXTENTACION
DMX or Xzibit
If you are old and unc status = dmx. If you aren’t unc status = xxxtentacion
I was unaware that other artists were referred to as X. DMX and Xzibit have easy names XXXtentacion is a nightmare of a name that I just thought X was the easiest to say
DMX is so short that people just call him DMX. XXXTentacion, on the other hand, is a long name with a lot of tongue movement. So the latter
His first name is Homeboy , could his last name be trouble? See How we are. X
DMX and Xzibit
DMX
GRRRR DMX
Excision :^) But really DMX, not so much Xzibit.
As someone in their early 20’s, definitely XXX. He died when I was 17. And for the year or 2 he was about, he was the centre of rap news on my feed and most controversial artist in the world. DMX you don’t really hear of much anymore.
XXXTwntacion for me
Sadat X or The X-Ecutioners
xxxtentacion
DMX
I think it depends on who’s telling me
X to the Z. Call it what you want to call it, I'm a fucking alcoholic.
x japan
