    Excited for this album. My only concern is that it is being executive produced by Swizz Beats. Not sure if I'm alone here, but I've never been a big fan of his production. He has had a few hits, but the majority are misses to me.

    Agreed. He set the bar high with some of his earlier albums and people compare it to that.

    It's a great album. h---, I don't consider it much lower than Grand Champ or The Great Depression.

    Hasn't Swizz executively produced or at least played a significant role in most of DMX's album since the beginning though?

    You look at It's Dark and h--- is Hot, he has some production there.

    Flesh of My Flesh he basically produced that entire album.

    And Then There Was X, he's got like 4 or 5 tracks on there. A few tracks on Grand Champ and The Great Depression too.

    I hate when he talks over his beats, but it works every now and then, or at least it did in the past.

    def not alone. I think swizz is a trash producer and was having the same thoughts as you. But DMX and Swizz also have a bond so hopefully they vibed off each other.

    swizz stated the album was finished in snoops studio. DMX also said in early interviews that dr dre might have a couple joints on it (being finished In snoops studio is even a higher like ability that they worked together. Kanye was also involved with some production. So it’s not just strictly DMX over And swizz

    Yeah, thankfully Swizz and X have worked for the most part. We'll see. People are saying it's a classic album already, even though his voice has gotten pretty rough towards the end.

    No I just think you're kind of r-----ed lol I don't support everything he does h--- I have one of the most controversial opinions that current Em > old Em. you're just weirdly obsessive and delusional and all that weird Eminem talk "giving nightmares to Billie Elish...new album out" Em being a sex symbol and all the countless other s--- you do is just weird now. I used to think you were clowning around but I've released you just really love Eminem.

    So a fun title just kidding, and saying Em used to be able to f--- anyone he wanted back in 02 isn't true? He was like MGK is now, but with good music.
