DMX is reportedly fighting for his life after suffering an alleged heart attack during a drug-fueled overdose, and those in the hip-hop community are praying for X to make a recovery. Ice-T sent out a message Saturday afternoon as word spread of the iconic Ruff Ryders rapper reportedly being rushed to the hospital with a grim outlook.
The news, first reported by TMZ and later confirmed by Variety, was that DMX suffered a heart attack late Friday night at his home in White Plains, New York.
According to TMZ, DMX was in such bad shape when he arrived at the hospital, doctors are on the fence about whether the 50-year-old star will survive. One source told the outlet the “Where The Hood At” rapper was in a “vegetative” state while another claimed was only showing limited signs of brain activity.
None of the reports have been confirmed by DMX’s official reps or his family, but as time goes on other authorities in the hip-hop world have spoken about X and appear to corroborate the reports.
In the wake of the tragic incident, Ice-T has reached out and send support to DMX while hoping his longtime friend can make a recovery.
“My Sincere love and prayers go out to my homie @DMX during this difficult time.. Pull through my dude,” Ice-T wrote on social media while sharing, what appears to be a recent, photo of the two (above).
In response to Ice-T’s message, many fans reached out to send prayers as well for the Ruff Ryders star as he fights for his life.
