DMX’s daughter Sasha shares a heartbreaking message following the rapper’s death.
DMX was a defining voice of hip-hop for decades. His legacy will live on forever as one of the most exciting and revolutionary rappers to ever pick up a microphone. On Friday, the 50-year-old’s journey on this planet ended after his family announced his death following a week spent in critical care at the hospital. DMX had suffered a heart attack on the heels of a drug overdose, following which he entered a coma for seven days.
His family has asked for privacy as they grieve the passing of the legendary artist. Over the weekend, X’s ex-wife Tashera Simmons shared a heartfelt post as a tribute to the rapper and now we’re hearing from his daughter Sasha, with whom he shared a great relationship over the years.
