Despite misinformation about the rapper’s status, his manager claims DMX “is currently on life support and in a coma.”
DMX has reportedly been in a “vegetative state” for four days following a drug overdose. The rapper has been candid about his addictions and with each new path to recovery, he has been supported by his family, fans and friends.
Millions of people worldwide have responded to the tragic news of DMX’s hospitalization but over the last few days, there has been misinformation shared, causing confusion. A tweet by a fan named Jordan devastated fans, but she quickly apologized.
It’s unclear what led Jordan to believe that DMX had passed away, but TMZ shared that the news of the rapper’s death isn’t true.
“X remains in a coma and his condition has not materially changed,” the outlet reported. DMX’s manager Steve Rifkind offered the update. It’s said that the rapper’s family visited with him this evening (April 6) and DMX is scheduled to undergo testing this week.
