DMX Inks New Deal

by LYRICALTHOUGHT

THURSDAY DECEMBER 20, 2007

Former Def Jam artist and hip hop veteran, DMX, has signed with Bodog Music. Bodog is a division of online gaming and entertainment. The terms of the contract state that, X will release his next LP,

called Walk With Me Now and You’ll Fly With Me Later, through the label in 2008. When asked about his new label home, X replied “I’m thankful for the fact that Bodog believes in me, that we share the same vision and the fact that they see in me the same thing I see, I’ll show you [Bodog Music] how it’s supposed to be done, and we’ll get to where we’re supposed to be. You got a dog for life.”

Bodog also has a deal with the Wu-Tang Clan for the European distribution of their latest project, 8 Diagrams. As well as sponsors the Battle of the Bands competition, in which artists compete for a $1 million recording contract with Bodog Music. Bodog founder Calvin Ayre when asked about the status of his company stated; “Bodog Music is rapidly becoming a big dog in the music biz. Between the successes of Bodog Battle, great artist developments and now some major signings, look for Bodog Music to be an even larger presence on the music scene in 2008.” No release date has been set for X's new album.

P.S. I'm gone KEEP askin' this ? til I get a damn answer...

HAS ANYONE, ANYONE @ ALL, copped that Wyclef!!!!?

What are the 1st week sales gonna be man, three hundred? I would just limewire some tracks to see if it's any good but I don't have time. I LOVE the Fugees, but I'm more of a Lauryn fan. So, I wanna cop it on someone else's recommendation! Where's The Source when you need it!? I MISS The Source in its prime. There's no defsounds review or anything, lol.

NO WYCLEF FANS??

Lyrical,

You've seen my list of albums I've purchased in the past two-three weeks!? 4/5 of those albums haven't been reviewed! I REALLY want a Wyclef comment, damn it, lol, it's gettin' frustrating... where's Dylan when you need him? He'd probably give it 5 mics, lol! Review Carnival II!

an ode to jokesta:

Who is Jokesta? What does he do?
Them questions dont matter
Jokesta's just a pile of poo.
He looks like a dog, smells like one too
even after he washes, Jokesta smells like poo.
his hair is uneven, its all over the place
his moms pussy smells sweet, when its on your face.
Jokesta married a hooker, but she left him for me
the one and only friend of the vanilla emcee.
Jokesta's not a fan of the vanilla one
he's banned him twice already. Thats not fun.
he's also banned me, so i made a new name
but my old one is where i made my claim to fame
everyone knew me, i made people grin
but since ive been banned, life has been grim
i once was the vanilla emcee fan,
but that dream came to an end, because of one man
his name is Jokesta, and he has a plan
to ban every member of this DefSounds scam

Like many of u said, X in his prime(98-01) was one of the best to ever do it. His first two albums were classic (It's dark..... & Flesh of my.....). His third album is another arguable classic. People saying he can't spit? He had the best verse on "Niggas done started something" he ripped that tracked, he outshined the LOX and Mase.
