As we previously reported, DMX, 50, is said to be in a “vegetative state” after suffering a drug overdose and heart attack on Friday. Flex pointed out that industry friends knew about his sruggle with drug addiction in the past and could have at least checked on him from time-to-time:
“The music business is a gorilla. It’s a bottomless pit of happiness or depression,” the Hot 97 DJ told the news outlet, “I don’t wanna say people don’t help you but I do want to say there are people who actually know [when a star is struggling, but don’t help] sometimes.” He went on to say, “People can find the picture… that they had with the person that’s going through a tragedy in 30 seconds,” said Flex, “but you haven’t called that person in 10 years.” He continued, “Let me see the picture of you when you went afterwards to his house because you was so concerned. I never see that picture where they go to the house.”
“Nipsey Hussle passed away and every washed up rapper made a pilgrimage to LA to go to the Marathon store to take a picture or to get their cards swiped. Bro Nipsey needed that support when he was alive.”
