This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Rap’s most vicious dog — and I sure don’t mean Snoop — is unleashed again. And he’s in a fighting mood.
On his 16-track sophomore CD, DMX howls, growls and sinks his teeth into some meaty rhymes stretched over bare-bones backing tracks. Whether he’s a dog of war barking a challenge on Bring Your Whole Crew or a hellound on The Omen, cocking an ear to master Marilyn Manson’s croaking guest vocals, DMX makes sure you know he’s the leader of the pack.
