Product Description

Amazon.ca

Watching DMX-bald-headed and shirtless, tattooed and muscle-bound--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-fuelled, 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

Product Description

Import edition of the East Coast rapper's 1998 album includes one bonus track, 'Ruff Ryders' Anthem' (live). 20 tracks in all. Universal.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST X ALBUM!! Jan 30 2005
Format:Audio CD
This is the first and by far the best DMX album ever. I have all of them and all of them are good but this blows them all away hands down. Let Me Fly is the best song on the album. All Rap lovers gotta pick this cd up.

5.0 out of 5 stars RAW-A$$ ALBUM!!!!!!! July 12 2004
By I.A.K.
Format:Audio CD
MAN, TUPAC IS MY FAVORITE RAPPER PERIOD. MY SECOND FAVORITE RAPPER OF ALL TIME AFTER HIM IS NONE OTHER THEN DMX. NOW ADAYS IN THE RAP GAME, MCS ARE RAPPIN ABOUT NOTHIN...BUT NOT PAC AND DMX. THEY KEEP IT REAL AND ACTUALLY HAVE PRETTY DEEP MESSAGES. IN BEING DMX'S FIRST CD, HE COULDN'T HAVE CAME OUT ANY RAWER THAN HE DID!!! MAN, THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CD'S I'VE EVER HEARD, PERIOD!!! I WOULD RATE IT AMONG THE TOP 3 RAP ALBUMS ALL-TIME!!! NOT ONLY ARE HIS LYRICS RAW AND DEEP, HE HAS A TIGHT FLOW, AND THE BEATS TO ALL, THATZ RIGHT, ALL THE SONGS ARE RAW. THAT BEING SAID, IT'S A SHAME THAT DMX IS UNDERRATED AND THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED ALBUMS, AS PEOPLE DON'T SEE THIS AS A CLASSIC. IN MY OPINION, IT'S RIGHT UP THERE WITH JAY-Z'S REASONABLE DOUBT, TUPAC'S 2PACALYPSE NOW, AND BIGGIE'S READY TO DIE. IF YOUR A TRUE RAP FAN, YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS CD. FROM THE INTRO TO THE END, THIS CD IS RAW. EVEN THE SKITS ARE EXCEPTIONAL AND ACTUALLY HAVE MEANING TO THE ALBUM. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS DMX'S BEST CD, ALTHOUGH SOME COULD ARGUE THAT. HERE ARE MY RATINGS, 1 BEING HIGHEST, TO 5, PLACING HIS FIVE ALBUMS(ALTHOUGH I THINK ALL OF THEM WERE RAW!!)1.IT'S DARK AND HELL IS HOT; 2.AND THEN THERE WAS X; 3.FLESH OF MY FLESH BLOOD OF MY BLOOD; 4.GRAND CHAMP; 5.GREAT DEPRESSION. THIS RATING IS FOR DMX ALBUMS. ALL OF HIS ALBUMS ARE GREAT, BUT I LOVE HIS FIRST THE MOST!!! GO COP THIS IF YOU ALREADY HAVEN'T!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars D-M-X!! RYDE OR DIE! July 11 2004
Format:Audio CD
DMX! To me gotz to b considered one of the best. I know many people will disagree but i will put up a fight. This guy came out of nowhere from being featured on LL Cool J's 4-3-2-1. To the Lox's Money,Power,Respect and Mase's 24 hours to live. Everybody knew he was just gettin started. Get At Me Dog had all tha streetz goin crazy. He just kept coming with tha hitz, Ruff Ryders Anthem, Stop Being Greedy, and How's it goin down. X is not Tupac, Nas, or Biggie,but in my book he's #1 tha Grand Champ. Its Dark and Hell Is Hot is a classic in my book its up there with Illmatic, Ready To Die, 2Paclypse, The Chronic has to b mentioned with them. If u dont have any of his albums just buy its dark and hell is hot n then u will know y i feel tha way i do. after u listen to tha first 1 i gurantee u, your gonna b beggin for more.

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST DEBUT ALBUMS
This album has got to be one of the best debut albums by any artist in the last 10 years. DMX gives you a very street, gritty, and dark album with this debut. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars DMX On Top Of His Game
Think back to 1998. It was probably the best year musically for DMX. He released not one, but two multi-platinum CDs in the same year. Read more
