    Need those unreleased songs...

    but obviously he wants money for them. Why would he just give them to deff jam so they can

    No way anyone in their right mind would give away 50 unreleased DMX songs for free

    Pretty sure he clearly wants to sell them but he's only willing to sell them to def jam since they made the first 5 and was last signed to them

    When do you think these were recorded? Dame said “with 50 MORE songs”

    as if they were recorded for his come back album and none got included to the album. DMX also had a 3 album deal with deff jam. And has been working on and off for the last few years.

    Based off of the flow and voice it's not new maybe early to mid 2000s the drop in quality in X with even his voice is pretty noticeable and easy to pinpoint

    There's no polite way to put this but the prospects of quality DMX material have increased since he died. Posthumous albums are a mixed bag but in this case they'll be plucking raps from an X in better shape, and his death may prompt more significant producers to collaborate.

    If they can make a fun album with songs from Pop, Von, Juice,... this shouldn't be hard since X was in the game for a long time. If they release a lost tapes type of project with his old s---, it should be way better than this mess.

    Not sure if posted

    "We have the material,” Swizz said during an album listening for Exodus. “He’s not here but we do have the vocals and everything like that. This project definitely needs a part two.” “He has a different set of music that’s all gospel too,” said the Verzuz co-creator. “That was like his dream dream dream. We gotta try to make that happen.”

    A crtitique that I have is the barking sounds, him saying "cmon" "what" in between lines seems a bit overplayed at this point. Especially when it's on most of his songs.

    I know that it's his trademark but at this point it almost seems like it's added to compensate for the fact that he doesn't sound nearly as good as he used to.

    Lol f--- Swizz tbh.

    X wanted to retire. Everything that comes after this album is not something X asked for or put his stamp of approval on.

    Swizz really wants to make money with these stuff he recorded with X. If part 2 is like part 1, he can keep it.

    I can see X wanting that church album, he was obsessed with religion like Pastor West.

    Good looking out man but discussed over the last page of this thread. I don't like the whole highway robbery vibe going on but I want to hear these verses.

    What they should do is... Gather his best unreleased stuff as CD 1, gather his unfinished stuff as CD 2 and drop final double album

    Without a doubt. It what will actually happen is that we'll get 3 or 4 posthumous albums milked with a bunch of features.

    Anyway, is it too early to do an elimination game for Exodus?? Sneak peak: I actually really like Hood Blues!

    Or two albums on a row Game style. That old stuff must be way better than what we got.

    They say we are also getting projects from Juice and Pop soon. That's cool. Wish --- had left more stuff. Also need more Von.
