Swizz Beatz Weighs In on Possible DMX Comeback

While DMX is finishing up his extended prison stay over a failed drug test, longtime friend and producer Swizz Beatz is now speaking out for the troubled emcee and squashing any talk that DMX can’t make a comeback. In a recent interview with AllHipHop, the producer-rapper explained why he’ll always work with DMX and why he believes the rapper can, once again, reclaim his throne at the top of hip-hop’s hierarchy.


“I’ll always work with DMX. That’s my brother no matter what,” he explained. “I don’t use people’s personal problems to judge our relationship. Everybody got personal problems in one way or another. Some people’s personal problems are more upfront than others, but everybody [has] a problem that they don’t wanna discuss like that, or they wouldn’t want people to know.”


And while many doubt that DMX, whose musical heyday was more than a decade ago, can compete with hip-hop’s current crop of superstars, Swizz says that the only thing standing between X and success is himself.

“Anybody can bounce back. One thing about me, I never count nobody out,” he continued. “X was a winner already. Now it’s just a matter of getting that title back. It’s like a boxing fight, you win some, you lose some. Bottom line is, he’s a winner. It’s just on when he wants to win again. It’s all up to him.”
