DMX TO POSTHUMOUSLY RELEASE LET US PRAY: CHAPTER X ON DECEMBER 13, 2024

Def Jam/ UMe proudly present the release of DMX’s Let Us Pray: Chapter X on December 13, 2024. It will be available on all digital platforms and in  physical configurations, including CD, standard LP, and a limitededition color variant exclusively available at select E-Commerce retailers. DMX’s prayers will be accompanied by original music from multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning hip-hop, R&B, and gospel songwriter and producer Warryn Campbell [Kanye West, Alicia Keys, Brandy, Yolanda Adams].

This extraordinary body of work highlights the spiritual side of the late four-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum hip-hop legend and man born Earl Simmons. Tuning into the power of his words, Campbell notably crafted new original music to accompany the signature prayers of DMX and instrumentally scored these spoken-word messages straight from the artist’s heart. It also boasts contributions from various superstars across genres, including Snoop Dogg, Mary Mary, Killer Mike, MC Lyte, LeCrae, Terrace Martin, Lena Byrd Miles, and RoyzNoyz Orchestra.

About the project, Campbell commented, “Working on Let Us Pray: Chapter X has been one of the most fulfilling experiences for me as a creative. When you hear the voice of DMX, it inspires instant creativity and what better way to showcase who X really was than through prayer. I believe I can speak for MC Lyte, Killer Mike, Snoop Dogg, LeCrae, Mary Mary, Lena Byrd Miles, and Terrace Martin when I say it was an honor and privilege to be part of this amazing work.”

Now, “Favor” [feat. Killer Mike, Mary Mary, & RoyzNoyz Orchestra] introduces Let Us Pray. The track boasts a heavenly harmony from Mary Mary as well as a reflective, powerful, and poetic turn from Killer Mike in between DMX’s prayer.
