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.

* [[Abusive Parents]]: His mother starved him and abandoned him in a group home.
* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]- "Good Girls, Bad Guys" from ''...And Then There Was X'' provides a somewhat humorous take on this.
