One of the greatest MCs in hip hop history DMX lives on with the release of a brand-new single, which was recorded shortly before his passing last year and is released posthumously today. The late rap legend was well-known for his immense self-confidence and heavy bravado, a fact he makes clear on this new single \u201cKnow What I Am.\u201d Even in his final days, the intensely personal artist had an unshakable faith in himself and what he was doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The track\u2019s production carries on the mix of hip hop and rock that marked X\u2019s previous single \u201cX Moves,\u201d which featured rock legends Steve Howe (of Yes) and Ian Paice (of Deep Purple). For \u201cKnow What I Am,\u201d X\u2019s gruff vocal delivery meets a dark rock production courtesy of producer\/guitarist Mark Gemini Thwaite who has worked with Tricky, Peter Murphy, The Mission and more, along with J\u00fcrgen Engler of German industrial pioneers Die Krupps, and a relative newcomer Ahrya Far, a Los Angeles-based producer\/performer formerly of Pixel Terror and currently of Bosquet. Together this trio constructed a hard-hitting track to match some of X\u2019s most powerful and inventive wordplay in years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
