Unfortunately, the situation still sounds incredibly grave, and the family is making a statement Friday. It sounds like things aren’t trending in the direction we’d all hoped for.

Let’s hope DMX is able to bounce back. The man is a living legend, and you just hate to see people meet an unfortunate end.
