Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
One of the breakout stars of 1998, DMX wasted little time in following up his No. 1 album It's Dark and Hell Is Hot with Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood. If the quick turnaround seems surprising, maybe it's because DMX's second LP doesn't fall far from the original tree. Key to his formula, DMX has mastered the art of thug-life anthems, following in the dubious footsteps of 2Pac and Noreaga. While his gruff voice and simple delivery help make his songs infectious, they're rarely creative, especially with anemic beats, redundant subject matter, and his trademark barks. Basically, Flesh of My Flesh is a perfect buy for those who couldn't wait a whole year for another DMX LP, but it won't convert many new listeners. --Oliver Wang

- People need to stop hating
Normally I don't write reviews for any album, but I'm tired of hearing about how everyone thinks DMX is a 2 Pac clone that doesn't compare. First of all, he isn't 2 Pac! Hello! Is this sinking in? He doesn't want to be 2 Pac and he never will be, so stop comparing them. 2 Pac was good, I don't think he was the best, but obviously a lot of people do. In either case, DMX and 2 Pac are nothing alike (other than being buff and bald.) So they both claim to be thug, who gives a rat's *ss? So do a lot of other rappers that look like you could pull 'em out of a cereal box (Fabolous comes to mind.) DMX got his following for being the most vicious rapper to grab the mic since Brotha Lynch Hung, PERIOD! He speaks violence, he sounds violent, and he basically is violent. So if you want rap that is feel-good and friendly, don't buy the damn album! How hard is that? If you like clean-cut raps and sophisticated metaphors ... Read More

- Just 'cause I love my n*****, I shed blood 4 my n*****
I was introduced to DMX, of all places, on Mase's 1st CD on a track entitled "24 Hours To Live". The track featured Black Rob, The LOX and DMX with an energetic Puff Daddy on the chorus. Soon after that track, I heard him on the LOX's "Money, Power, & Respect" which also featured Lil Kim. I was shopping for music one day and I found a CD Maxisingle to "Get At Me Dog", which also had the track "Stop Being Greedy" on it. Based on the reputation of his verses on "24 Hours To Live" and "Money, Power & Respect", I decided to purchase the CD Maxisingle eventhough I hadn't heard it. "Get At Me Dog" was produced by Dame Grease and was full of energy. It used the same sample that EPMD had used for "Get The Bozack". DMX had some choice words for a particular rapper, who I later found out was K-Solo, and he definitely had me anticipating his solo debut. "Stop Being Greedy" ended up being his 2nd single and was also ... Read More

- In Less Than A Year.....
After the following of the very well received debut of "It's Dark and Hell Is Hot"....I personally think DMX might have pushed his sophomore effort out there a little too quickly thinking that his newly developed fans would quickly forget about him and dismiss him as a one album wonder. Whatever the case may be, DMX(Earl Simmons in his late 30's at the time might I add) pumped out this gem. No, it's not a sequel to his outstanding debut but it receives my respect all the same. My favorite cut would have to be "Slippin'"....and despite the overused quoted chorus of "I'm slippin' I've fallen and I can't get up", X tells an eloquent ghetto poem. However, with only releasing this only 7 months after the release of his debut, X proves that he has staying power.
