DMX Calls it Quits w/Sony,Glad To Be At Bodog

by KRUSH DALLAS

TUESDAY JANUARY 8, 2008

DMX is officially calling it quits with Sony despite their new management team and getting down with indie label Bodog. The Dog signed with the label in 2006 and released Year of the Dog which had minimal success, thus his decision to leave the label.


"Nah," said X, "You don't make the same mistake twice. I already made the mistake with Def Jam thinking they had good people in the office. The shit was supposed to be different. Not! God bless whoever's over there, but I'm good where I'm at. Bodog, it already has 'dog' in the name. What more can I ask for?"

The Dark Man has also confirmed that he owes a hefty bag of bones to Sony but has decided to keep it movin'. "Man, I don't really give a fuck," he sneered.

"It was a blessing for me because it was a lesson for me. Feel me? But I peeped what niggas was trying to do, so I stepped a little more carefully around these muthafuckas, because I know what their intentions are even though their words say something else.

"I came at [Sony] with 30 songs [already done]," he added, going back to 2006.

"They said, 'Give us five new songs.' I said, 'All right, fuck it.' I hit 'em with fire. I said, 'I'll give them more fire.' The building heard the new songs, we were all amped about it. We decided on the single 'We in There.' They halfway sent [the song] out there. I asked my man what happened, he said, 'The song didn't leave the building right.' What the fuck does that mean? That's suspect!"

According to reports from MTV last week
, X's next project will be two different albums dropping on the same day. The overall project is called Walk With Me Now, Fly With Me Later. Walk With Me will feature traditional gritty tracks from D, while Fly With Me will be his first gospel record.

X also addressed rumors concerning a sequel to the epic hip hop film "Belly" saying, "I'm waiting for my man Nas to come up with a script for part two," he said. "But it's whatever, man."

Wow.. he's funny for blaimng Def Jam...

X was hott when he was hott... he made a lot of money off of his music because unlike Lil Wayne releasing mixtape after mixtape...

X released ALBUM after ALBUM... Like 5 in 2 years!!!

So his buzz was still going strong which is why he made soo much. Perfect timing...

His stupid ass took like a 4 year hiatus with not one track or feature or anything. Then he became a certified crackhead/rapists/complete fuck up... and decided he wanted to release another cd...

Of course the shit didnt sell... u'r buzz was Papoosed! Lol...shit was gone....u waited too long...

So he could blame whoever he wants to blame...ultimately it was him that fucked himself over...

Let's see if he could get right now...

thats whats wrong with the fucking hip hop industry even though a rapper is fire and can spit mad lyrics a company don't want that shit cause it ain't gonna sell on the radio and shit they want artists like soulja boy that they can manipulate and make the most money off from they don't wanna release fly shit like papoose and dmx and now fucking beanie seigel and freeway fuck that aint even promoting there album with videos not everyone checks the internet so they don't know bout new albums n shit thats the record companies job to do not the artists thats why they get their money.

Belly 2? How? They should let that one alone. As for X, he just has issues, he ain't happy anywhere. Maybe he should stick to acting.

Man, X is one of the realest, he's hardcore. I bought all of his albums, I'd still support him cos he spits from the gut. He's still better than half of the clowns out right now who think they hot. All he needs is someone to back him up real good. And I agree that he took too long to drop anything, you can't leave fans hungry like that, they gonna f*ck with another rapper, like Papoose!
