. Remember seeing his interview at drink champs (I think) a couple of years ago, he was already looking really unhealthy. Terribly sad he and no one in his surroundings could help change it.Tweet

That's how Wrighty rolls!
Didn't think Lineker would have gotten that reference!
This is what I was thinking too at the start!
What's happened to Black Rob?
Not been great for a few years apparently, had 4 strokes, not sure if this hospitalization was because of one of them but he's out of hospital now.
You clearly don’t know much about DMX if you think its the rap sheet that defines why hes so liked
I didn’t say that people like him because of his rap sheet, I said people are mourning a guy who has a rap sheet longer than my arm while simultaneously we see people mocking Prince Philip, that was curious to me.
He was a drug addict with a troubled childhood so it's not surprising that he ended up committing crime. Had he been raised with the best education with no shortage of money he could have turned out to be a well-rounded human being.
Of course his upbringing was very difficult and certainly shaped him for life however he consistently made choices throughout his life to rob and harm people, from a young age.
You are literally comparing both people.
I guess I did compare them a little, my intention was to really compare the reactions to their deaths rather than the individuals however there was a little crossover there I must admit.
Take away the charitable work to justify his tax funded opulent existence and the same could be said of Philip.
He didn’t really have to justify anything though, he didn’t have to do the charity work he did and so to dismiss that would be unfair. Also you don’t know what his motives were for his charity work, it would have been much easier for him to live in luxury without giving anything back.
Yes and I notice his son also received many military medals and achieved high rank too, so it's clear that exceptional military skills must run genetically.
It seems like you are reluctant to give any credit for service or for charitable work, you clearly have an issue with those of a different class regardless of their activities.
I refer you to my previous comment. It's a lot more than his music and a lot about the type of man he became later on.
This is a extremely cool crime tbh.
I'm extremely reluctant to give credit to an unfeasibly wealthy taxpayer funded aristocracy doing something to compensate for that, absolutely.
I really struggle with that. I know people personally who have benefited from the Duke of Edinburgh charitable donations and a while ago the work experience setups as people have enjoyed DMX's music. Not everything needs to be a blanket "good" or "bad" and both DMX and Prince Philip had amounts of both, but to dismiss the good because it doesn't fit seems a bit bizarre to me.
If you actually look you'll actually find people doing the exact same to DMX. Of course you're going to find mostly positive stuff about him in a thread that's pretty much dedicated to him.
Also a totally ridiculous comparison to make. One person was born into money and a life of privilege, the other wasn't.
It's what he would've wanted.
