DMX Says He’s Conquered Drug Addiction

Let’s sure hope so. The Dark Man tells TMZ that he has finally overcome his drug addiction and owes it all to his children.

Everyone was taking advantage of me with my finances, trying to put me in the direction to fail. I have 10 kids. I have to drive them in the right direction, so I let the cocaine go. I am on a spiritual road to do right in my life. I am leaving out all negativity and going to stay on the right road to positive.

Personally, I want DMX to win. X’s pastor later spoke on his behalf:

When [DMX] first came to my church he looked broken, sad, and full of struggle. Now you see a dramatic change. You see that the drugs and alcohol aren’t in his life.

    Let’s hope this is true and stays true. DMX is one of the last real ones left and the game can certainly benefit from him coming back to conquer it.

  12. […] Hip-Hop Awards, maybe that was due in part to him parting ways with his well-known drug addiction. TMZ sat down with X as he opened up about his recovery. X tells us, coke was his greatest demon after […]

    Who knows where he could have been. X sold 20 million in 5 years.

    and that ain’t right
