The World suffered a tremendous loss on April 9th, 2021 when Earl Simmons aka DMX passed away at the age of 50 years old. Suffering a crippling heart attack, the Hip Hop Icon was rushed to White Plains Hospital, NY, where he sadly passed after a week on life support.

A statement from the Simmons family stated:

Earl was a warrior who fought till the very end. He loved his family with all of his heart, and we cherish the times we spent with him.”

DMX ‘s music reflected his violent upbringing; full of anger, confusion, and grittiness, and spoken with a menacingly rough voice that captivated the attention of his audience. In  May 1998, DMX released his first album, “It’s Dark And Hell His Hot” , which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Charts and went on to sell over 4 million copies in the U.S. alone.

The multifaceted DMX was not only a talented rapper, but also had a promising acting career as well,  starred in several movies, including “Belly”, “Romeo Must Die”, and “Cradle 2 The Grave”, among others.

Since his passing, streams of DMX’s musical catalog have increased over 928%,  with over 75.7 million on-demand streams (audio and video combined) alone the day following his death. His single, “Ruff Ryders Anthem” shot back to #1 on the iTunes Charts that same week, with “Party Up” hitting #4, and “X Gon’ Give It To Ya'” taking the #7 spot.

Indeed, the impact of DMX- his music and his story, still can be felt throughout the world even in 2021.

But what exactly will be the Legacy of DMX in Music, Pop Culture & Life?

And for all our Hip-Hop fans out there- in his prime, was DMX the biggest artist in the game- even compared to other Rap heavyweights including Jay-Z, Nas, Redman, MethodMan and others from the late 90’s and early-2000’s??

Recently the legendary DMX, fresh out of prison after wrapping up a bid for tax evasion, performed at the legendary Irving Plaza in NYC to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of his classic debut album “It’s Dark And Hell Is Hot”, and of course the GoodFellaz were in the building!

After a bit of a wait (translation: a long wait, lol), the packed crowd finally went into a frenzy when Dark Man X’s signature growl spilled out from the speakers and the Ruff Ryder general finally came on stage to the delight of the fans in attendance. It was a vintage X performance, as he played all his hits, damn near shaking the building with all the energy from the crowd. And of course no DMX show was complete without his signature prayer to wrap things up after the show was finally over.

What a MF’n show!!! Watch clips from his legendary performance below, courtesy of the good folks at GoodFellaz TV. Enjoy!

The Migos currently hold the crown with the #1 song in the country (“Bad & Bougie”), so naming their album “Culture” makes a lot of sense. On Friday, January 27th , it was time to see if they could translate that into a performance that met the GoodFellaz standard! Held at the world-famous Highline Ballroom in NYC, The Migos had a chance to make sure that the album wasn’t the only thing talked about.

The ATL-trio had already been making some major waves with massive shows in Nigeria and of course Atlanta, with video clips that looked like near-riots as opposed to a concert. And this show definitely lived up to expectations; it was  honestly an unforgettable experience where the term “concert” couldn’t even accurately define the madness you were stepping into. Long gone were the days of ‘head-knocking’ and the ‘lean back’; the new era of hip-hop moshpits, dance-trends, and leaving the show feeling like you just went to the gym was here, and it was time to see if The Migos could do the same in the ‘Mecca of Hip Hop’ aka New York City.

Perhaps it was the joint live-streamed venture with Tidal, but The Migos were surprisingly on-time for a hip-hop concert; the crowd was kept waiting only a little under an hour for the madness to begin. Before I get into specifics, allow me to mention that the GoodFellaz crew have been to some of the most turnt-up shows EVER; including legendary events like Tyler the Creator’s insane NYC show and Kanye’s “Saint Pablo Tour” concert, where the entire show was pretty much one big mosh-pit. However even we were impressed by The Migos show that night. Inside the much smaller Highline Ballroom venue, the crowd stood true fans, and EVERY SINGLE ONE was ready to leave ‘blood on the floor’ in the name of the party. We don’t just say that as just empty rhetoric either, I literally witnessed someone catch an elbow straight to the nose during “Kelly Price”, a new track off their album featuring  Travis Scott.

When you step into the building for ANY Migos show, you make an immediate decision: Step to the back and watch from the wall, or jump right into the action. From the literal intro, a sh*tstorm of drastic proportions hits you from every angle. Every elbow, every fist, everybody that can be thrown into you will. DO NOT GET IN YOUR FEELINGS. This is what a Migos show is about. The crowd at times even drowned-out The Migos themselves. THIS IS WHAT YOU SIGN UP FOR, and quite frankly, it’s something everyone should witness. It’s a high-octane, insane energy, that can literally shake buildings.

Zaytoven came out early at the NYC, adding to the fun by providing live keys and a soundtrack to the crowd that begged for more and more. I have always said that for a performance to be truly euphoric, a special guest was needed. While Zaytoven was not quite what I expected, it was absolutely one we didn’t know we needed; he kept the crowd hype until the main event.

And once The Migos hit the stage, the insanity truly began! When it comes to a good show pacing is important, because these fans DO NOT SLOW DOWN. From the Intro, to new tracks like “Kelly Price” and  “T-Shirt”, and of course their smash hit “Bad and Bougie”, the pace only picked up, the jumps got higher, and the ‘bows got stronger. If it sounds like a mob scene, it’s simply because it is. It’s a riot with a soundtrack. It’s an experience that you should absolutely take a moment to experience in your lifetime, or at least witness from the back wall.

If you’re gonna do a concert with a group this lit, Highline Ballroom’s 700-person venue is perfect to keep the action all around you like a Hype 3D movie. All-in-all, The Migos “Culture” Tour is on its way to a city near you, and with the all the crazy going on in 2017, nothing is more upbeat than a Migos party.
