Not sure about this so someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

If you stream X songs on Apple Music listen to the re-recorded versions. I think they re-recorded songs so they can own them and get paid off of them. Cam'ron mentioned this on Drink Champs last week.

I hope Def Jam do right by DMX and give them the earnings off his music. Even if it may not be much, him and his family deserves that much.

DMX or whoever owns that publishing probably makes a lot of money.

If we're talking about rappers with great commercial impact he's high up there

He has music in like commercials and movies and has classics that get spent in every 5 o clock traffic jam across the country and random mix shows.

He also gets mainstream club spins.White ppl love Party Up until this day a lot.

They're not like when he was in rotation,but he might generate a million a yr off his pub now

True. I wish Swizz could've got him a management deal with Roc Nation instead of letting him sign to Def Jam again

Yeah but back then in that era, major labels is all rappers wanted to sign to. The information about benefits of being independent wasn't out there like that than it is now. He also have a lot of kids, etc. I pray his music make a lot to where his kids will be straight. God bless his soul.
