He shows all the sides of his personality, making this one of hip-hop’s most well-rounded albums of recent vintage.

His latest, Year of the Dog...Again, doesn't stray far from that trademark grimy style, though recent troubles with the law (including a two-month prison stay) seem to create a fresh well of angry inspiration.

On his sixth album (his first with Sony Urban), he talks about the fire he used to possess without rekindling those flames.

Year Of The Dog Again, DMX's first disc since he parted ways with Def Jam, offers the same old dance of sin and salvation, Saturday-night sinning and Sunday-morning redemption. In keeping with DMX's time-tested formula, Dog is two-thirds gangsta and one-third gospel.

If he keeps going like this, it's a good bet that his best days are behind him.

The album is near flawless, and while I don’t very much like the structure, I love the core.

He is one of the most durably fascinating characters rap has thrown up, a troubled loner who spent his teens hanging out with abandoned pitbulls. His raps lay bare his constant inner conflicts, with his garrulous belligerence set to punishing, pugilistic beats.

Like so many of his previous albums, The Year of the Dog (Again) sounds more conflicted than confident. DMX offers a pseudo-religious message blurred by countless references to heaven, drugs, hell, sex, the devil, and poetic prayers for forgiveness.

Same old dog, no new tricks. And when we say old, we mean it.

You guys are hardcore fans of DMX, that is why you don't know anything. Greatest rapper ever? I seriously doubt that....This album was GOOD at the best. He did a good job, but could have been better. |

The music that Earl "DMX" Simmons make is just appealing, and I think he puts flame where it is suppose to be. That alone makes him a real hardcore rap mogul. |

This album is very underrated, you have to appreciate his spiritual side. The only reason that so many people are hating on it is because they don't like spiritual rap. |

It wasn't his greatest work, but he is still one of the best rappers out there, and even though i didn't like this album as much as the last, it was still a quality album i would expect from the X. |
