Very few deaths have rocked the hip-hop world in recent memory like DMX. The legendary rapper passed away in April of 2021 and while many of the circumstances surrounding his death at the time were unclear, that didn’t stop many in the rap community from showing him love. Shortly after his death, an album he was working on at the time of his passing was finished. The album is called Exodus and sports numerous high-profile features. Jay-Z, Nas, Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, Swizz Beatz and Usher are just a few of the artists who contributed to the album.
Swizz Beatz worked on Exodus quite a bit and he recently mused on the idea of creating another posthumous DMX effort. When asked in an interview by HipHopDX if he had enough material for another album he responded “for sure.” But the question of whether or not he will actually make one is still up for debate. “Will I make another X album? I don’t know. It has to feel good,” he answered. Check out his responses and the entire interview.
