Line 24:
* [[As the Good Book Says...]]- "Lord Give Me a Sign" begins with DMX quoting Isaiah 54:17.
* [[Badass Preacher]]- He always finds a way to insert a full-blown prayer track into his albums in between the gangster joints.
* [[Call-and-Response Song]]- The ''Damien'' series, as well as ''Angel'' and a few other songs.
* [[Call Back]]- In ''Damien III''- "What happened to the right hand, Light Man?" is a [[Call Back]] to ''Damien'''s "For that nigga, I would bleed/ give him my right hand/ now that I think about it, yo, that's my man!"
* [[Career Killer]]- "The Professional" from ''...And Then There Was X'' has DMX portray a contract killer as opposed to simply a gangster.
Line 46:
* [[Loners Are Freaks]]: "How many times do I have to tell you rap niggas I have no friends?!" (from "What's My Name?")
* [[Lyrical Tic]]: He makes frequent use of growls, barking, "uh!", and "come on!" in his songs
* [[Mood Whiplash]]- His video for "Where Da Hood At?" is his typical violent gangster rap (sprinkled with a little gay bashing), but then it goes into a clip of "Ayo Kato," a sweet, sad tribute to a deceased friend.
* [[Moral Dissonance]]- DMX will go from gangster raps about committing murder to what are essentially ''gospels'' within the same album.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Has quite a number of female fans, must be the [[Shirtless Scene|allergy to shirts]].
* [[Myth Arc]]- The "Damien" story crosses songs from three different albums.
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]- Used in ''Damien III''
{{quote|'''Damien'''"What happened to the right hand, ''Light Man?''
'''X'''"Nah, that's ''Dark Man''
'''Damien'''"Well, let's get it right, then." }}
* [[Punctuated!
* [[Soprano and Gravel]]- His duets with Aaliyah and Monica.
* [[Verbal Tic]]- "What?!", "C'mon!", and ''dog barks and growls'', among other things.
