DMX (rapper)

DMX (born December 18, 1970) is a rapper, one of the few big-name rappers to also achieve near-unaninamous critical success. From Yonkers, New York, DMX debuted with "Get at Me Dog", an instant success. His debut album was It's Dark and Hell Is Hot. It entered the charts at #1 in 1998, as did the follow-ups Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood, ...And Then There Was X and The Great Depression.

In September of 2003, DMX released his fifth album Grand Champ and became the only artist in the history of the Billboard 200 to reach No. 1 with his first five albums.
