'''Earl Simmons''' (1970-), more widely known by his stage name '''DMX''', is a rapper and actor from Yonkers, New York. The name DMX was originally not an acronym, but simply part of a name taken from a popular drum machine of [[The Nineties]], the Oberheim DMX. However, the acronym has come to stand for "Dark Man of the Unknown" (or "[[Xtreme Kool Letterz|X]]" for short).
DMX is widely known for his harsh, gravelly voice, his violent subject matter (particularly in his earlier albums), and the frequent call-and-response lyrics used in his songs. That, and his extensive arrest record.
