DJ Nonstop
"DMX was my brother. There will never be another one like him. X is a one of a kind. I will always cherish all the time I spent on stage with him, but even more so the time we spent together off stage in private, those memories will stay in my heart forever."

Ed Lover
"In life and in music, God creates special people. Sometimes they are a One of One. Meaning, there was no one like them before they came and there will be no one like them after they're gone. DMX was a ONE of ONE! Our heartfelt condolences to his family and fans."
