Interview with DMX is undoubtedly one of our biggest Popkiller achievements in the category of foreign interviews. We managed to catch Dark Man X after his show at Warsaw Challenge festival, around 3 a.m. in front of his hotel room, after a few minutes' conversation with his manager, from whom we first heard that there is no chance ... Tired MC / actor from New York Yonkers had previously treated the thousands of listeners in the Sowiński Park with an unforgettable show, and easily won the sympathy of the Warsaw audience.

Media reports and speculation that X should be feared that he is unapproachable turned out to be a pile of rubbish. However, the statement by Ja Rule, Earl Simmons' old companion from the time they toured together, in which he said that he had learned from X how to approach fans and that they should always be respectful and open-minded, was confirmed. Anyone who had the opportunity to talk briefly with X then - whether it was before the concert, when he went out to people and started praying with them, or backstage after the entire show - had the same positive impression - he's a really solid, humble, down to earth guy.

It was unfortunate, however, that due to technical problems we lost the entire video footage of the conversation... Hence, we present you an interview in the form of audio.

We talked to the first soldier of Ruff Ryders, e.g., about the reception of his last LP "Undisputed", cooperation with his childhood idol Rakim, the planned sequel to the movie "Belly", in which he played together with Nas, memories of Aaliyah, the label's contribution to the creation of his albums or the unreleased double album "Walk With Me Now", "Fly With Me Later". The artist also told us why he decided to donate the profits from the first week of selling "Undisputed" to the victims of the attack on the World Trade Center and shared his musical and acting plans for the future.

Interviewers: Marcin Natali, Paweł Miedzielec
