DMX shows heart and soul for moms on 'Couples Therapy'

"Never once did she say she loved me"

It takes a real man to admit when he's been emotionally scarred, and it takes great courage to share his pain with the world. Rap star - DMX did just that recently on VH1's reality show - 'Couples Therapy'. 

Known for his hard 'thuggish-ruggish', bad to the bone [rap] flow and iconic 'dogg' style, when talking about his mother, DMX keeps it passionately "real". 

"I used to always turn to drugs when I was feeling a certain way and now that I’m not doing that, sometimes the pressure builds up, I’ll call [someone] and say, I just wanted to say ‘Mommy.’ I wanted to say that word. Mommy. Not ‘My mother,’ you know, I wanted to say mommy. I just wanted to talk to her. I haven’t talked to her in years and I just wanted to be able to say ‘Hi, mommy. I love you.’ Never once did she [say she loved me.] …. [crying] …. You know what, I think people lose sight of the fact that no matter how strong you are, as a man, no matter how tough you are, we  all need to be somebody’s baby."  --DMX

Way to 'man-up', X! And don't even trip on loved-1 for showin' some thug passion for his moms...who wouldn't? Even the hardest of hearts break down when it comes to something so essential to a healthy life - love from moms. And we all know dudes front like sh#t don't matter, but even the illest menace to society 

has a bleeding heart for the woman who gave him life. 

Many young fans, especially those who find themselves living in foster homes or childcare facilities, for instance, will be blessed by DMX's example. Too many of these youngsters sincerely believe that no one wants them, especially their mothers'. Confronting and sharing childhood trauma will no doubt help those who also feel the pain of love's absence. 

And above all, in spite of his ups-n-downs with the "industry", his career is [still] all-good, but never more important than confronting the source of his suffering.

"And judging from the show, DMX has rightfully acknowledged [the] turmoil and is clearing the way for better days and better ways. That's what's up." -T.F. Hodge

One love and keep shining, dogg!

 "I gotta make it out, or move quickly. Can't allow the past to restrict me, bet this time around they won't skip me. I am the last hope." --DMX

 

Landon Collins Gets Dissed by Moms on National TV!

"Recruit Landon Collins hides his shame after his mother disagrees with his collegiate choice."

   Shame on you, moms! It's one thing to get dissed by moms at home, or suffer her mild to strong disapproval with many of a young man's decisions, but this one takes the cake! Why? On a day many dream to experience during an outstanding amateur athletic career, five star safety - Landon Collins announces he intends to play college football for Alabama over LSU, and on national TV, gets embarrassingly dissed by his own mother.

Judging from his tone of voice and body language you can sense Collins is making every effort to hide his emotions after being upstaged by his mother, who dislikes his pick and adds insult to injury by giving a shout-out to LSU instead of Alabama. Excuse me moms, but how many of those tackles, knock-downs and interceptions did you make? Um...who earned the athletic scholarship by playing hard, studying and puttin' in work on the field, game after game?

Moms isn't even paying for his college tuition and she has the nerve to treat her son in such an ignorant, low-class manner for all to see - wow! No doubt, once this young athlete turns professional (barring injury of course or derailment by his lack-of-support mother), moms will be right there with her hand out, probably with no recollection of how she treated her son during what should have been one of his proudest moments. No worries LC, in spite of low-ball 'haterism' from a source you'd never expect, get your ball and swagg on at Alabama, playa!
