DMX Displays Life on BET Reality Show

DMXDMX has seen extreme highs and lows in his career, and now fans can witness his hectic life on BET’s reality show, “Soul of a Man.”

The six-part series follows Earl Simmons as he relocates from the gritty streets of Yonkers, NY to the open pastures of Carefree, Arizona in order to get his life together.

“On ‘Soul of a Man,’ DMX is more than a rapper, more than a movie star – he’s a human being with tragic flaws, amazing charisma, undeniable talent, humor, love and street toughness,” said Reginald Hudlin, BET President of Entertainment.

“If you don’t know who DMX is, this series shows you why he’s a star. If you’re a DMX fan, this series shows you a side of the man you’ve never seen.”

“One thing you’ll notice immediately is how X lets you completely into his world in a way that most artists won’t,” says Tracey Edmonds, executive producer for Edmonds Entertainment.

“There is no vanity with him, no pretense, no self-editing; which in turn makes for a very entertaining, water cooler show that the viewers will appreciate.”

Alongside DMX, hip-hop songstress Keyshia Cole is also starring in her own reality show, “The Way It Is.” Both shows debut tonight on BET at 9:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.

I seen it last night and liked it. I also seen access granted with his new song "lord gimme a sign!" i like the song alot. I dont care what anyone says, right now x is the realest n*gga in the rap game. U cant get no realer then what he says in that song! F*ck rappin about the cars, money, clothes, swagg, clammin to be the king. Cuz when its all said and done u have to answer to god!! and x is startin to realize that. People dont realize it and x probably dont either but hes finna change the game!kanye started it with "jesus walks" but x is finna take it to that next level. People aint used to hearin a thugg ass, crazy ass, grimmy ass n*gga talk about his walk wit god but yet still be street!! theres been alot of gospel rappers comen out, but theres never been a switchover like this. X already has the ears of millions. And god is useing him to reach those same milions cuz they already listnenin! yea, x got some issues and x fightin some demons. He dont realize that he cant straddle the fence. U cant have one foot in the way of the lord and other foot in the way of the world. God said in the bible, u either be hot or be cold, cant be luke warm cuz u will be spit out! my advice to yall is watch that show. Theres a message behind it. Yall might learn somethin from x yall didnt know! and thats real talk!!

Reality shows are wack. Maybe if he was one of the chickenheads on flava flavs show. I'd watch that. Not a dmx fan. This is probably some bs promotion for some socks for your pet lizard, or maybe a hat for your fish
