Long live DMX.
As family, friends and fans, alike, continue to celebrate the life of the late Hip Hop icon, long-time friend, Swizz Beatz, announced X’s posthumous studio album! Today, Swizz, along with the Ruff Ryders, revealed “EXODUS,” an opus of new original material. Releasing via Def Jam Recordings, “EXODUS” is set for a May 28th release.
Swizz, executive producer and producer of “EXODUS,” issued the following statement:
“My brother X was one of the most pure and rare souls I’ve ever met. He lived his life dedicated to his family and music. Most of all, he was generous with his giving and loved his fans beyond measure. This album, X couldn’t wait for his fans all around the world to hear and show just how much he valued each and every single person that has supported him unconditionally.”
