Product Description
It's Dark and Hell Is Hot
Description
Watching DMX--baldheaded and shirtless, tattooed and musclebound--as he simultaneously goes platinum and gets arrested on rape charges (both of which occurred within weeks of this album's release), one can easily see the Yonkers, New York, rapper as a Tupac in training. And he's certainly no stranger to dumb thuggery on his much-anticipated debut. But unlike Tupac, who tempered hard-core beatdowns with party pick-me-ups, DMX is strictly business, part of a street reaction against the Puff Daddy-fueled, late-1990s slew of lightweight pop-rap crossovers. With a name too true for its own good, It's Dark and Hell Is Hot could occasionally use a cool breeze of levity. That said, the record is not without merit; despite the album's largely standard-issue beats and rhymes, both DMX's forceful voice and solid production have moments of greatness. At times DMX even manages to squeeze memorable hooks out of this otherwise claustrophobic release. --Roni Sarig

2 of 5 stars  thought it was hot but looking back.................
Thursday, March 10, 2005
it is and WAS garbage. i don't know how this guy blew up. i'm thinking it's cause pac had just died and dmx was as close as we were gonna get. i mean looking back x had no talent to begin with. he was just a character. barking on records and shooting people. but he prayed at the end of every record which confused me cause he killed half of the united states on this one album but ended the album like he was a religious man. for some reason he got annoyed when questioned about his comparisons to tupac and even disrespected tupac while he should have been honored because x has no lyrical talent and any song he was on was terrible unless he had a good beat to carry him. don't get me wrong, x played that dog gimmick well and it showed by him having 5 # 1 albums in a row but if you think about it x is forgetten and nobody EVER mentions dmx as one of the greatest in hip-hop. he is and example of how you can have minimum talent and still make it in the hip-hop game today.image seems to be more important than talent.he's no pac,big,pun,big l or nas. put him in the "good character" section with fifty cent.
