DMX Show Closes Prematurely After Audience Gets Rowdy

by REIGN

THURSDAY APRIL 10, 2008

An Indiana college, Lambda Chi Alpha, was the venue recently for a concert by DMX. The concert was closed down after only three songs. The concert was supposed to start at 8:30 p.m., but it was delayed until 9:30 p.m. because of difficulties getting DMX to the house on time. Lambda Chi Alpha had an agreement with the University that the concert would be over and noise would stop at 9:30 p.m.

Obviously that couldnt happen, so Indiana University police decided to shut down the concert after just 3 songs. DMX was taken off the stage and other officers were called in when the crowd began shouting profanities at the officers.

DMX also had alcohol that he said he would pass around to students, junior Lauren Smith said. “All of a sudden, cops came on the stage so I thought he might be getting in trouble for alcohol,” Smith said.
After students were maced, most rushed into Third Street. Third Street was temporary closed starting at Jordan Avenue, IUPD confirmed.

Mike Patterson, a general contractor who was working security at the show, said that at one point students started rushing the stage. Others at the concert said they did not see anyone on the stage.

In other news…

  • DMX Sued By Alleged Rapist
  • DMX's House Raided, 12 Pitbull...
  • DMX accused Rapist hits back, ...
  • Warrant Issued for DMX, Snoop ...

 


“They started throwing things at the police,” Smith said. “It got pretty ugly and we thought people would start getting arrested. I never saw people on the stage. They threw trash, but that was about it.”

Real talk the Mid west got mad issues B, Although I’m a BK product, during the year I go to school & play in the Mid west (WI), and IN is a drive away, my peeps & I kick it on that campus at least ounce a year (after our games at times). And I tell you what, the Campus Police out there will Mace your black ass for speaking at them with the wrong tone,…shit is CAZY.
How’s the University gona have DMX rock from 8:30 to 9:30,..nigga is you high? It’s a hip hop artist, dukes don’t show up hours later…shiiiit, they lucky X didn’t show up at 11pm like when he was out here. They could have let money rock till like 11 at least, then have the student body that brought him there tell him it’s wrap, not the damn authorities!…I mean 3 songs? 3 fucking songs? X got a crazy catalogues of hits & you let him rock 3 joints. Yo These white boys out in the Mid west will act a fool when they be drinkin’,…At least they can now say ‘Gangsta Rap Made ‘em do it”

DMX is the best Live Rap Show in the history of the rap game. I saw that nigga in 98' during the biggest hip-hop road show (survival of the illest) ever. It was mad niggas on that tour that rocked it but NOBODY came close to fuckin with X when it came to moving the crowd.
Jay-z
Onyx
Meth&Red
Ja-rule
None of them ripped it like DMX. It was like the niggas standing around me was asleep the whole show until X came out and then everybody was pumped and niggas was all ruff ryder groupies.
The nigga turned it out. His shit you could feel. He would stop between songs and talk to the crowd. He would threaten to beat the shit out of the DJ for drowning out his mic. He would growl and bark and all that shit. This nigga DMX gives you a show.
I would rather hear 3 of his songs live than the entire catalog of most other niggas I like.
If you ask me, these college kids got their moneys worth.

I would have to concur!

Believe it or not Ja Rule got a Dope ass stage performance though!

Actually better than People like Jay or Nas

I think the only nigga who comes close to X's stage performance is......

Wyclef Jean!

Dat nigga can move a fuckin crowd! He goes fuckin crazy on stage!

Yeah, Jay shows are lame as fuck. Nas' aint the greatest but at least he brings props and visuals to his shows. I saw a Jay-z concert in LA a few years ago and it was so boring I left before it was done just so I wouldnt be stuck in a sea of parking lot traffic.
Ive never seen a clef show.
Ja was on the survival of the illest tour but he only did Can I get a... and hyped for DMX (this was 98')

Another hip-hop click that puts on a hell of a hip-hop show is The Roots. Them niggas are all energy and its all positive and I think personally their strongest asset is their live performance.

Wu-tang shows are ALWAYS good too. Sometimes one or two of them niggas will book a small venue in detroit and tear the roof off that bitch every time. Raekwon, Ghostface and Cappa show alot of love for detroit.

Also I went to an Outkast show and that one was really good too. Them niggas know how to put on a show and they have an ill ass catalog. I saw them with Goodie Mob and Cool breeze awhile back and shit was great.

I have wanted my money back from...
No limit soldier tour 98'
50 cent first nationwide tour 03'
Nelly world tour (my girl got those tickets)
Eminems punk ass 03' ford field concert
E-40 & Keak da sneak Hyphy concert
I saw Jay-z fade to black MSG concert on DVD and it sucked.
