Celebration of life for DMX
DMX’s family says the celebration will be available for the public to view live at 4pm EST.
Before the memorial, the Ruff Ryders will lead a procession from Yonkers, where DMX grew up, to Brooklyn. The procession led police to plan street closures from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Yonkers, reports LoHud.com.
The memorial will be live-streamed on DMX’s official YouTube channel and the homegoing celebration will be streamed on BET’s YouTube channel starting at 2:30 p.m. ET Sunday.
“We are deeply saddened to announce today that our loved one, DMX, birth name of Earl Simmons, passed away at 50-years-old at White Plains Hospital with his family by his side after being placed on life support for the past few days,” DMX’s family said in a statement after his death. “Earl was a warrior who fought till the very end. He loved his family with all of his heart and we cherish the times we spent with him. Earl’s music inspired countless fans across the world and his iconic legacy will live on forever. We appreciate all of the love and support during this incredibly difficult time. Please respect our privacy as we grieve the loss of our brother, father, uncle, and the man the world knew as DMX.”
